Group III Base Oils and Alliance Trade

Luberef supplies Group III base oils through the Aramco Base Oil Alliance, sourcing these products from S-Oil and distributing them to regional customers. Luberef’s marketing focus covers the Middle East (including Pakistan) and Africa, supported by distributor networks in South Africa and Tanzania.

Within the Alliance, Motiva serves the Americas, while S-Oil covers Europe and Asia, excluding the Middle East and Pakistan. In addition, Alliance members S-Oil and Motiva sell primarily Group III products into Luberef’s markets through coordinated Alliance trade arrangements, ensuring broad product availability and supply flexibility.
