Project Overview

Project Concept

Hydraulic oil is the lifeblood of all hydraulic machinery in construction, manufacturing, and agriculture. Blending it locally from base oils is a high-margin, guaranteed-demand project.

National Benefits

Secure hydraulic oil needs for construction and heavy equipment sector
Reduce high-priced hydraulic oil imports
Support manufacturing industries with local inputs
Build national capacity in the industrial lubricants industry

Economic Benefits

Very low production cost compared to selling price
Continuous demand from factories and contractors throughout the year
Relatively low investment with quick returns
Easy to scale by adding filling and distribution lines

Environmental Benefits

Reduce volume of imported shipments and their resulting emissions
Quality control extends equipment life and reduces consumption
Reduce leakage of poor-quality oils into the environment

Social Benefits

Lower equipment operating costs for contractors and workshop owners
Provide a reliable alternative to imported product
Create jobs in oil blending, filling, and distribution
