What APSCO does

APSCO (Arabian Petroleum Supply Company) is a privately held Saudi Arabian energy solutions provider founded in 1960, headquartered in Jeddah, and operating across two core divisions: Aviation and Lubricants. The Aviation division delivers into-plane (ITP) fueling, depot management, fuel transportation, maintenance and quality control, engineering, and technical support at 22 fuel depots across Saudi Arabian airports, and has held exclusive into-plane fueling rights for Saudi Arabian Airlines (Saudia) since 1999. Additional named customers include Turkish Airlines, Bangladesh Airlines, and Garuda Indonesia. APSCO has been recognized as the first and largest private-sector aviation fueling company in Saudi Arabia and operates the first GOLD LEED-certified ITP facility at King Abdulaziz International Airport.

The Lubricants division manufactures and distributes Mobil-branded industrial, commercial-vehicle, passenger-vehicle, aviation, and marine lubricants as ExxonMobil's exclusive strategic partner of more than 60 years, with distribution extending across Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Yemen, Sudan, Bahrain, Jordan, and Russia/CIS (the latter via Eurasia Motors). The company runs 50+ Mobil Service Centers across major Saudi cities and is adding new product lines including Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) at Red Sea International Airport, fast DC EV charging infrastructure, solar power at airports and fuel facilities, and a new marine fuel station in Jeddah. In January 2026, the Arab Energy Fund (TAEF) acquired a strategic minority stake to support regional expansion and operational excellence.

APSCO's go-to-market combines long-tenured enterprise B2B contracts with airlines and industrial customers, exclusive Mobil-branded lubricants distribution, and a retail service-station network, with active participation in industry events (Dubai Airshow, Singapore Airshow, Saudi Airport Exhibition) as a credibility and lead-generation channel. The company is positioned as a contributor to Saudi Vision 2030 and the Saudi Green Initiative through its sustainability investments.
