The management of Pakistan State Oil (PSO), the country’s largest OMC, has approved the appointment of Abdus Sami as chief executive officer (CEO) on an interim basis. The listed company shared the development in a notice to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Monday. The management “has approved, as an interim arrangement, the appointment of Abdus Sami, as chief executive officer in addition to his existing position of chief supply chain officer, with effect from March 31, 2026, until further orders or the appointment of a regular CEO.” The development comes days after Syed Taha, the MD and CEO of PSO, was appointed chief executive of K-Electric (KE) , the sole power utility of Karachi.

Meanwhile, according to information available on PSO’s website, Sami has an experience of over 24 years in the energy sector executive management, field operations, and project management at the national and international levels. He worked as Director of Commercial Distribution Operations at Tetra Tech - Oil and Gas.
