Since its establishment, the Kuwait Oil Tanker Company (KOTC) has built a solid reputation as a pioneer in the maritime transport industry. With a steadfast commitment to reliability and a modern fleet that meets the highest international standards, KOTC has become a benchmark in the transportation of crude oil and petroleum products, a company whose achievements speak of excellence, resilience, and sustainable growth.

Among its most recent achievements, the State of Kuwait has been recognized as one of the “High-Performance Flag States” under the “Tokyo Memorandum of Understanding “Tokyo
MOU”, following a thirty-inspection process conducted on vessels registered under the Kuwaiti flag with zero detentions recorded. This milestone is more than just a statistic, it stands as a global testament to Kuwait’s strict adherence to standards of quality, maintenance, and operation, and as a reflection of the country’s distinguished reputation in global maritime forums.

This success is no coincidence. It is the result of the dedicated efforts of all KOTC employees, whose expertise and perseverance have been the foundation of this great success. The company’s vision extends beyond traditional maritime operations; it continues to invest in digitalization and the reinforcement of information security systems, recognizing that cybersecurity is a vital pillar for business continuity, the protection of digital assets, and the preservation of KOTC’s leading position.

The achievements we see today are the culmination of years of diligent and continuous work since its inception. Despite its remarkable achievements and global recognition, KOTC’s ambitions know no bounds, it constantly strives for further excellence and leadership, empowered by the competence of its national staff.

Today, KOTC stands as more than a shipping company. It is a symbol of modern management, world-class quality, and enduring occupational values– a company that continues to shine at the forefront of the global maritime industry.

To all KOTC employees, I extend my heartfelt appreciation for your dedication, determination, and unwavering efforts in upholding the company’s proud reputation among the world’s leading maritime transport organizations.

May Allah grant you continued success for the good of our beloved country.
