Ex-KE CEO Moonis Alvi appointed to lead GO Petroleum

Syed Moonis Abdullah Alvi, the former chief executive of K-Electric, has been named CEO of GO Petroleum, Business Recorder reported. In a social media post, Alvi said he was honoured to take the role and vowed to build something durable for the nation's energy industry. He also thanked the board and leadership for their confidence in him.

Gas & Oil Pakistan Ltd, known as GO, is classed as an oil marketing company and sells petrol, diesel and lubricants through more than 1,300 outlets. Alvi had led K-Electric, the sole electricity provider in Karachi, since June 2018, and he was reappointed in July 2025 before resigning in February 2026 after 18 years with the company.

In July 2025, the Sindh Ombudsman for Protection against Harassment of Women at the Workplace ordered his removal as K-Electric CEO and imposed a Rs2.5 million fine in a workplace harassment case, which he described as deeply distressing and said he would appeal. The Sindh Governor annulled that removal order days before his resignation, while a National Assembly committee had questioned his suitability for the post in May 2025.
