ExxonMobil has announced that it has completed its expansion project in Jurong, Singapore to increase production of grease and synthetic lubricants, including Mobil 1, the company’s flagship synthetic engine oil.
“India’s economy continues to grow with significant opportunities across industries. One of the biggest market opportunities is within the automotive sector fuelled by the growing middle class consumer segment that look for high quality lubricant solutions for their vehicles. Other industries such as general manufacturing also stand to benefit from increased product demand. The proximity of the new synthetic lubricants and grease plants in Singapore offer our customers in India an enhanced value chain with reliable supply and more efficient delivery,” said Deepankar Banerjee, Chief Executive Officer, ExxonMobil Lubricants Pvt Ltd
The expansion of the Jurong lubricant plant further strengthens the company’s manufacturing capabilities and its ability to meet the growing demand for grease and synthetic lubricants products in the Asia Pacific region.
“These new grease and synthetic lubricants production facilities are strategically located close to key Asia Pacific markets, ensuring the reliable supply of these premium products to our customers,” said Teoh Song Ping, Asia Pacific lubricant sales director at ExxonMobil, adding that “Our advanced lubricating oils and greases contribute to society’s broader sustainability objectives by helping to increase equipment operating efficiency and engine fuel economy, which contribute to reduced energy and resource use, as well as lower emissions.”
The grease plant started production in January 2017, and the synthetics plant, which was completed in March, started production in April following a successful commissioning.
