Saudi Luberef records solid 2024 results; revenue hits $2.6bln
Saudi Aramco Base Oil Company (Luberef), one of the world's leading suppliers of base oils, has announced solid results for FY 2024 with its revenues for the 12 months surging to hit SAR10.03 billion ($2.6 billion), up 5.8% over the previous year's figure of SAR9.48 billion ($2.5 billion) mainly due to increase in by-products sales volumes as well as by-product prices despite a plunge in base oil prices. Announcing the results for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2024, Luberef said however, its net profit plunged 35% to SAR972.02 million from the previous year's figure of SAR1.5 billion. This was mainly due to a decrease in base oils and by-products crack margins despite the increase in base oil sales volumes, said Luberef in its filing to Saudi bourse Tadawul. Meanwhile, the earnings per share (EPS) retreated to SAR5.78 in 2024 from SAR8.98 a year earlier, it added. Impressed with the results, the board members have proposed cash dividends to shareholders valued at SAR518.22 million for the second half of 2024. This brings the full-year dividends to SAR6.68 per share, which is approximately 70% of free cash flow according to the performance-linked distribution policy. Luberef will disburse a dividend of SAR3.08 per share for 168.25 million eligible shares, it added. Copyright 2024 Al Hilal Publishing and Marketing Group Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc. (

Saudi's Luberef targets Yanbu Growth II project completion in 2025
Saudi Aramco Base Oil Company (Luberef) will focus on executing the Yanbu Growth II project in 2025, according to President and CEO Samer Al-Hokail. 'The project is the cornerstone of our expansion strategy,' he said in the company's 2024 result statement. The CEO said the project will enable the company to produce Group III base oils, making it the region's sole producer of all three base oil groups. The project will enhance production flexibility, helping maximise utilisation capacity and capture opportunities in high-netback lubricant markets. In February 2023, Luberef awarded a 555-million Saudi riyals ($148.55 million) Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract to Egypt's Petrojet for the Yanbu Growth II expansion project. The expansion will expand the Yanbu facility's base oils (Group II and Group III) production capacity to 1.3 million metric tonnes (MT) per annum by 2025. Luberef's 2024 net profit fell 36 percent year-on-year (YoY) to SAR 972 million , driven by a decline in base oil and by-product margins. Revenue rose six percent YoY to SAR 10 billion.
