big ships, even bigger impact
At Yas Marina Shipping Company, we strive to power human progress reliably, affordably and ever-cleaner by safely transporting crude oil, liquefied natural gas, refined products and chemicals to help meet the growing global demand for energy. Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs) are part of how we meet this colossal challenge to deliver oil across oceans and seas.
massive for a modern world
The immense size of these ships helps lower the total cost per delivered barrel of crude oil. This way we can realize economies of scale and deliver affordable energy. VLCCs help deliver products to the market reliably, efficiently and at a competitive cost.

we’re only as good as our people
At Yas Marina Shipping Company, our people are our greatest resource. It’s their ingenuity that helps us solve challenges on a global scale. From shoreside to our mariners onboard our ships, we’re fully invested in our people.
ships are floating communities
Crews are at sea for weeks at a time, covering thousands of nautical miles. Each VLCC is equipped with technology to help crews meet the demands of the job as well as amenities to help them sustain a healthy lifestyle.
safety at the core
We deliver world-class performance by operating responsibly. We live by two key safety principles: do it safely or not at all, and there is always time to do it right.
like a big family
We’re proud of our diversity, with mariners coming from many countries and cultures. Each person brings unique experiences and talents creating an environment where we learn from and respect each other’s differences. From solving problems to cooking meals, our diversity is our strength.
eating together
When a long day of work is done, the crew settles in to eat a meal together. Satisfying everyone’s cravings and tastes is said to be one of the most difficult jobs on the ship.
“Delivering products that meet and exceed customer expectations is why the future is exciting at Yas Marina.”
