Coral Energy is proud to announce its rebranding initiative as the company expands and refines its operations. This change reflects the management’s commitment to further diversify its footprint and continue to mark its separation from the past. Since 2022, Coral Energy has undergone a comprehensive transformation, including a successful management buyout. This has enabled the company to develop new strategic geographic regions and bring on board professionals with extensive experience in European and Western markets to develop business opportunities. ?

Best practice guidelines, know-your-customer (KYC) standards, and compliance procedures are central to the company’s operations, enhancing risk management and operational efficiency. This strategic decision strengthens decision-making procedures. Additionally, business processes focus on in-depth employee training and development, improving knowledge in compliance, risk management, and sustainable practices. “We have implemented stringent new compliance measures to ensure the highest standards of ethical behavior and transparency,” said Karimov. “These improvements are an important part of our strategic rebranding and expansion efforts. We are committed to fostering a culture of integrity and accountability, and we look forward to a bright future for the new Coral Energy as we continue to grow and innovate." The management team has implemented various automated and manual compliance checks and screenings using real-time data to ensure the deployment of compliant vessels and full adherence to sanctions regulations.
