Steadfast Leadership
KOTC continues its outstanding journey toward reinforcing its pioneering position in the shipping sector by achieving qualitative accomplishments that reflect its ambitious vision of excellence and sustainability. The Company has been able to achieve a unique model that combines operational efficiency, environmental responsibility, and forward-looking vision in line with the aspirations of the State of Kuwait for a more prosperous future.
The Company's recent achievement of the Environmental Protection Award at both the regional and global levels, presented by The Maritime Standard last October, stands as a culmination of its journey in applying best
environmental practices. It also highlights KOTC's dedication to modernizing its fleet with cutting-edge technologies that reinforce operational efficiency while minimizing environmental impact, reflecting its superiority in performance and responsibility toward the marine environment.
Moreover, the DCEO of Fleet Operations, Captain Yousef Yaqoub Al-Saqer, received the Editor's Choice Award for Excellence, a well-deserved recognition of his pioneering efforts in advancing the maritime industry and promoting a culture of safety and compliance with international standards in fleet operations.
As part of its ongoing support for national and Gulf human capital, KOTC also received special recognition from the Executive Office of the GCC Council of Ministers of Labor and Social Affairs in appreciation of its role in supporting localization programs and developing qualified human competencies, reflecting its social and developmental responsibility.
Another notable achievement added to KOTC's record of accomplishments was the zero-detention rate of its vessels during 30 inspections conducted on ships registered under the State of Kuwait's flag. This outstanding performance resulted in the State of Kuwait being ranked as a high-performing flag state on the latest Memorandum of Understanding (TOKYO MOU).
These numerous achievements confirm that KOTC is confidently moving toward a brighter future, preserving its ancient legacy while continuously advancing standards of excellence and efficiency in the shipping industry. The Company remains a symbol of national pride and an honorable presence on the global stage. Through the dedicated efforts of its competent and loyal employees, who continuously strive for development, the Company remains a role model in occupational excellence, national commitment, and global leadership. With great ambition and high aspirations, we look forward to the future with confidence and determination, fully capable, by Allah's will, of meeting its challenges.
