With the commissioning of this state-of-the-art facility, Shell Lubricants’ storage capacity will increase by 550 metric tons.

The new facility will cater to the growing local and regional demand for commercial lubricants as well as local and international demand for marine lubricants.

Ibrahim Al Janahi, Chief Commercial Officer, Jafza said: “We are very pleased to play host to Shell Lubricant’s new state-of-the-art facility in Jafza.

This investment highlights our commitment to ensuring high quality lubricants supply to our distributors in the local as well as regional markets. The increased storage capacity substantially reduces lead times and improves supply continuity by maintaining stocks of all major lubricants grades.”
