| LUBTRICANTS
BLENDING PLANT |
| Built
by Shell Company in the late 1960's with a blending and packaging
capacity of approximately 7000 metric tons per year, which can be
doubled through supplementary shift.
During the past few years, joint efforts with BP Oil International
were exerted towards setting up new blending procedures in line
with international standards applied in lubricants blending.
Also, new filling lines were introduced along with other machinery
needed to ensure the top quality of the locally produced lubricating
oils. Currently the blending is confined to producing BP Lubricants
under license |
| The
laboratory is equipped with up to date machinery needed to conduct
major analysis for petroleum products such as gasoline, gas oil,
Jet fuel, lubricants as well as chemical solvents. |
