Hello

Welcome to the European Lubricating Grease Institute


The ELGI was established in May 1989 and is an independent, self-governing institute, financed solely by members. It is one of a group of scientific and technical institutes active in the field of tribology dealing with lubricating greases and associated products. The institute is involved in all aspects of this product group, particularly those concerning the technical, economic, ecological and legislative positions in Europe.

A number of working groups have been created to deal with important issues in the European grease market. Current topics include Railway Lubricants, Bio-based Greases, Fundamental Research, Food Industry Lubrication, Test Methods, Aerospace Greases, Education & Training and Grease & the Environment, Grease Shelf Life, REACH, Grease Cleanliness. Other groups are encouraged and the ELGI facilities are available for such activities.

Adnoc to conclude jet fuel term deal at higher premium

Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (Adnoc) has concluded its July 2012 to June 2013 jet fuel term negotiations with at least one buyer at a slightly higher premium than its existing contract, Reuters has reported, citing industry sources. The refiner finalised its term contract with the unidentified buyer at a premium of $2.05 a barrel above Middle East quotes, they sources said. Adnoc was initially offering the term at a premium of $2.35 a barrel above Middle East quotes, which traders said was too high given the current weak demand globally for jet fuel.


New oil storage facility planned in Fujairah by Sinopec, Concord Energy

China's Sinopec and Singapore-based Concord Energy are set to build oil storage in the UAE port of Fujairah within two months, Reuters has reported, citing a source at Concord Energy. Traders are rushing to secure oil storage outside the Strait of Hormuz as tensions rise over Iran's nuclear programme. "We chose Fujairah for its strategic location," the source said. "Energy traders have struggled in these markets before and there's been a definite push in Concord to move towards acquiring assets and this project is a part of that," he said. "Construction is set to start within the next two months. There's a construction period of 21 months, so it is expected to be completed in early 2014," he added.

UAE's Lamprell swing to loss over costs, delays

UAE-based Lamprell has said equipment delivery delays and unexpected costs are to lead the oil rig maker to swing to a loss in the first half of 2012, in a surprise downgrade to its outlook which sent its shares plunging, Reuters has reported. The LSE-listed firm said a tight global supply market had made it difficult to acquire specialised equipment, hitting its revenue. In addition, delivering two wind farm vessels for an order would cost more than expected, it said. Despite the recent contract awards adding to an already strong order book, today's announcement creates a lot of uncertainty," Oriel Securities analyst David Round said. Lamprell appeared to be downgrading 2012 expectations by around 60%, Round said, adding he was putting his ‘buy’ recommendation under review.
