The Minister of Petroleum for Pakistan, Ali Pervaiz Malik, alongside the British High Commissioner, Jane Marriott CMG OBE formally launched a Training and Capacity Building Programme for the Geological Survey of Pakistan.

This new UK-supported initiative, delivered through REMIT, aims to strengthen Pakistan’s capacity to generate credible geological data and unlock sustainable growth in the mining and minerals sector.

As part of this effort, REMIT has partnered with International Geoscience Services (IGS), a UK-based consultancy with extensive global experience in supporting geological survey organisations.

The programme is designed to enhance the technical capabilities of the Geological Survey of Pakistan through hands-on training. It will equip the institution with the tools, methodologies, and expertise required to independently design and deliver future national surveys aligned with investor-facing international standards.
