Quaid-e-Azam Thermal Power Limited has opened a prequalification process for oil marketing companies seeking to supply high-speed diesel to its 1,180MW Bhikki plant in Sheikhupura. Mettis Global reported that the facility uses RLNG as its main fuel and keeps diesel for backup.

Applications must be filed through Punjab’s e-Procurement System by 11:00 AM on November 24, 2026; submissions will be opened at 11:30 AM that day. The tender concerns fuel procurement for a large power station, while the notice does not identify any listed supplier.
