United Energy Pakistan

United Energy Pakistan (UEP), formerly known as BP Pakistan, is a subsidiary of United Energy Group in Pakistan with a footprint in Sindh province of Pakistan, around 100 km to the east of Karachi. United Energy Group had acquired the Pakistani assets from British Petroleum in September 2011 and BP Pakistan thus became UEP.[1]
