A decade from its inception in early 1998, Gulf Petrochem today is a 100 million dollar turnover company. Its founder came from India to exploit the potential he initially saw in exporting Petroleum based oils and lubricants back to India. Within a few years, our first foray into manufacturing, a refinery in Hamriyah Free Zone, Sharjah was established. The success of this refinery was harnessed with a state of the art PLC based refinery taking the combined capacity to about 300 MT per day.

Soon it was time to diversify into base oils and lubes and a grease manufacturing facility was created to produce over 30 MT per day of world class Lithium base grease. Our dedication to produce the highest quality of product is vindicated by the trust placed in us to contract-manufacture OEM brands like Caltex, ENOC and Nationalube.

Gulf Petrochem then added a Port storage Terminal with capacity of 42000 MT. This along with chartering vessels created the capacity to move bulk material inwards as well as cater to the bulk demands of our customers.

The fourth operating unit to be commissioned within Hamriyah Free Zone in January 2008, is a PLC based, Programmable Logic Control, refinery with distillation columns that are capable of handing a large spectrum of petroleum based feedstock. This flexibility of the plant gives us the capability to enter new product-markets like solvents, Naphtha, Light Fuel Oil, etc. This unit would have a capacity to refine 300 MT per day of feedstock.
