Aramco enters Saudi lubricants market with new product line

RIYADH: Saudi Aramco has announced its entry into the kingdom’s domestic lubricants market with the launch of a new line of products, Arab News reported.

The oil giant timed the Orizon® launch to coincide with the inaugural Saudi Arabian Formula 1 Grand Prix in Jeddah.

The product line has been introduced in more than 20 cities, including Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam with more locations planned. The products include synthetic and semisynthetic lubricants for gasoline engines and heavy-duty diesel engines, as well as driveline products, greases and brake fluids.

The company has also expanded the brand to include Orizonpro® which is a high-performance line for the industrial sector.

Yasser M Mufti, Aramco vice president of fuels, said: “Entering the lubricants market is an important milestone for the company, as we continue to expand our presence throughout the downstream value chain.”

The launch “further complements Aramco’s presence in the kingdom’s downstream direct-to-consumer segment; following the inauguration of our first two service stations in Riyadh and Saihat recently.”
