Winners announced for Castrol Master Mechanics Contest

Ten mechanics from Independent automotive workshops across Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam were declared winners from among 1500 mechanics who underwent skill development and evaluation as part of the Castrol Master Mechanic Contest held in Saudi Arabia.


Those mechanics were recognized and felicitated by Castrol at an exciting event held in 3 cities. The winners emerged from among 1500 mechanics across Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam after three rounds of skill development and evaluation as part of the Castrol “Master Mechanic Contest”.


In a bid to upskill and recognize automotive mechanics from Independent workshops in KSA, Castrol launched the Castrol Master Mechanics Contest in Jeddah in May. The competition, which lasted over a month and a half, included training the mechanics by professional trainers specialized in automotive skills development and practical and theoretical assessment.


This program’s unique element was a wellness check for all the participating mechanics conducted by some of the top hospitals in the Kingdom. Health tips were also shared with all participants.
Commenting on the competition, Haitham Badaoui, CEO of Al Khorayef Company, said: “This is a great initiative undertaken by Castrol to recognize and reward the mechanic community.

The Castrol Master Mechanic Contest aims to positively impact mechanics that work under tough conditions but are often not appreciated as other professions. By sharing the latest technology and skills associated with the automobile industry, the contest keeps the mechanics updated in an industry where technology is changing at an extraordinary pace.”


All 1500 mechanics benefited greatly from this program and learned from all aspects of the contest. Independent judges selected the winners at all locations.


According to Rick Capoccia, Managing Director, Castrol Saudi Arabia, “Castrol is committed to providing the marketing and technology leadership in the lubricants industry in the Kingdom. We understand that the mechanics do not always receive the recognition and respect that they so well deserve. Hence, we decided to launch this program, which will provide a platform for the mechanics to showcase their knowledge and skills and at the same time keep them updated on the latest trends and technologies in the automotive as well as the lubricants industry.


Castrol-Alkhorayef Lubricants Company has been leading the technology in the automotive lubricants category in the Kingdom since 1991 and has played an integral role in providing the best lubricant solutions for the local market. As a global leader in working with the premiere automotive manufacturers, Castrol – ALC has transformed the local industry with the supply of premium product solutions to many strategic partners.
