About AMOC
Alexandria Mineral Oils Company (AMOC) operates a refinery in Alexandria that produces base oils for lubricants, paraffin waxes and a range of fuel and petroleum products.
Its profitability depends on the spread between crude-oil feedstock costs and the prices of refined products, both locally and in export markets, which makes it sensitive to global energy prices and to the exchange rate.
As one of the few listed energy companies on the Egyptian Exchange, AMOC is often traded as a way to gain exposure to the oil-product cycle.
