GULF WESTRN OIL
Peter Vicary and his sons Ben and Andrew founded Gulf Western Oil in 1988 for the sole purpose to design an oil specific to the Australian market. Australia has embraced this concept and over the last 36 years Gulf Western has become a leader in their field. This has been achieved by embracing some of the leading programs in the lubricant market:
-
API Licensing (American Petroleum Institute)
-
ISO 9001 Quality Assurance Management System Certification

Gulf Western prides itself in only using the highest quality virgin base oils and the most technologically advanced API approved additive systems allowing the company to hold some of the highest OEM approvals in today’s market. From a small company blending lubricants for the local market, Gulf Western has grown into a multi-million litre organisation with an extensive distributor network throughout all states and territories of Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Fiji, New Caledonia, Tahiti, Vietnam, China, Tonga, Samoa, Kiribati, Christmas Islands, PNG, and Russia.
The company remains fully Australian owned and operated by the Vicary family.
