ExxonMobil Lubricants Private Limited (EMLPL) awarded a contract to Toyo Engineering India Pvt. Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Toyo Engineering Corp., for the engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) of a 159,000 kL/year lubricant manufacturing plant in Isambe, Maharashtra, India.
EMLPL is a fully owned subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corp., a prominent worldwide energy company. For the automotive and industrial markets, ExxonMobil sells a variety of lubricants, greases, and engine oils under the Mobil name.
This project—ExxonMobil’s first greenfield investment in India—will manufacture high-performance Mobil-branded lubricants to meet growing domestic demand from industrial sectors such as manufacturing, steel, power, mining, and construction, as well as from passenger and commercial vehicle segments.
Once operational, the plant will source a larger part of the raw materials and all packaging from local businesses, thereby contributing to the Indian government’s “Make in India” initiative. It is expected to begin commercial operations by the end of 2025.
