Savita Oil will soon complete a consolidation project that moves all of its lubricant manufacturing and storage operations to one facility in Silvassa, India, where it will double existing production capacity.

Filipino oil giant Petron said its lubes sales in Malaysia grew by double digits last year thanks to marketing at its service stations and increased brand recognition, which it hopes to continue developing as it expands more this year.

Sinopec said it will start developing lubes and greases for use in high-tech industries such as robotics, high-speed railways, and wind power generation.

Indonesias state-owned Pertamina Lubricants said it hopes its cross-promotional campaign with national airline Garuda Indonesia will result in greater awareness of its lube brands.
