Crude Oil – Light & Heavy Grades

High-Quality Export Grade Crude Oil – Suitable for Refining & Blending

Crude Oil is a premium-grade hydrocarbon feedstock widely used in refineries for the production of gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, bitumen, and petrochemical derivatives. We supply two primary grades: Light Crude and Heavy Crude, both known for consistent quality and excellent refining yield.

These crude oils are compatible with a wide range of refining processes including distillation, catalytic cracking, and coking. Ideal for blending and direct refining in modern facilities.

Note: All shipments comply with international export regulations and are subject to pre-shipment inspection by SGS or equivalent.
