Building on a decade of steady revenue from sales of HD Hyundai Shell Base Oils, HD Hyundai Shell Base Oils is expanding into the premium segment to meet global demand for high viscosity index, low sulfur and enhanced oxidation stability. Group III base oils are essential raw materials for engine oils, industrial lubricants and emerging applications such as electric vehicles and immersion cooling systems for data centers.
The Daesan plant has been producing Group II base oils since 2014, supplying more than 50 countries in Asia, Europe and North America. The planned expansion will enable the company to meet more advanced applications that require higher performance lubricant formulations.
A company representative said HD Hyundai Shell Base Oils is leveraging its experience in meeting stringent customer quality standards to launch a premium lubricant product line.
The spokesperson added that the technical collaboration with Shell will help ensure the project remains on track for commercialization.
Group III base oils are expected to continue to achieve growth driven by increasingly stringent environmental regulations and evolving engine technologies. The joint venture aims to strengthen its position as a global integrated base oil supplier with this strategic investment.
