Shell Marine has officially opened a new lubricant storage facility in South Korea, a strategic move aimed at strengthening its global supply network and enhancing service delivery for customers in a key maritime hub. The inauguration was led by Shell Marine president, Houda Dabboussi.
Recognised as a pivotal location in global shipping, South Korea was carefully selected for this investment due to its importance to the marine industry and Shell’s global operations. The new tanks are expected to significantly improve order confirmation times—reducing them to within 48 hours—and will streamline logistics for customers operating in the region.

“This expansion reflects our commitment to investing in infrastructure that supports our customers’ needs,” said Dabboussi. “By enhancing efficiency and ensuring the ready availability of our high-quality marine lubricants, we are reinforcing our promise to deliver speed, reliability, and exceptional service where it matters most.”
Shell Marine continues to optimise its global operations by investing in key locations to better serve the evolving demands of the shipping industry. The new facility in South Korea represents a major step in enhancing service capabilities in one of the world’s most critical maritime regions.
