Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd. (“K” LINE) is pleased to announce that it opened a representative office in Doha, the capital of Qatar, on June 15, 2025.
Qatar is one of the world’s largest natural gas producers and LNG exporters, with production expected to continue to expand in the future. In addition, Qatar and the Middle East are not only energy exporters, the region is also one of the leaders in the markets for low-carbon and decarbonization, including clean fuels. In addition to our existing Middle East office in Dubai, the newly opened Doha office will seek out new business opportunities, including those in the energy transportation business.
We will evolve and develop our marketing and sales capabilities through close ties with our customers in Qatar and the Middle East region, and by responding to their needs. We will further strengthen our partnerships and strive to achieve sustainable growth.
