Shell
(China) Limited plans to build a lubricants blending plant in Zhuhai Guangdong
Province. The first phase of development will be completed at the end of 2008,
ready for commissioning and commercial operation in 2009. Shell's newest lubricants
blending plant will be located in the Petrochemical Park of Zhuhai and will be
ideally placed to supply major markets in Southern China. The plant will blend
both Shell and Tongyi branded lubricants, each accounting for around 50% of production. It
is expected that capacity in phase one will be 200 million litres (about 200,000
tons) a year, increasing to 400 million litres (about 400,000 tons) a year. "China
is an exciting market, to which Shell is firmly committed. This deal is another
manifestation of our strategy of growing business in China and providing quality
products and services to Chinese customers." Lim Haw-Kuang, Executive Chairman
of Shell Companies in China said.
