Captain Abdulkareem Al Masabi, CEO of ADNOC L&S, said, "We have delivered strong growth in financial returns to shareholders once again in 2024, driven by robust performance across all business segments. This year has been characterised by investing in the internationalisation of our business platform, the addition of new vessel types focused on transition fuels, and the growth of our large integrated logistics business.

"Today ADNOC L&S is a larger, stronger, more international business and one of the leading energy maritime logistics companies in the world. Our growth story continues into 2025 and beyond with more than $6 billion highly value-accretive growth opportunities committed since IPO, mostly against long-term contracts."

Revenues from the Integrated Logistics segment increased to $2,281 million (AED8,377 million), up 40 percent in FY 2023.

The increase was driven by volume growth in the Integrated Logistics Services Platform (ILSP) and strong growth in third-party offshore logistics services; major progression of Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) projects in particular the contribution of the G-Island project; accelerated Hail & Ghasha project delivery; the improved utilisation of, and rates earned for Jack-Up Barges (JUBs), coupled with fleet growth strengthening the GCC expansion.

Integrated Logistics' EBITDA rose by 30 percent to $687 million (AED2,522 million) for the full year 2024 against 2023.

Revenues from the Shipping segment increased 14 percent to $956 million (AED3,511 million), driven by strong charter rates for Dry Bulk and Tankers in H1 2024, coupled with additional revenue from the four new Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs) acquired in 2023; and the LNG vessel "Shahamah" contracted at a higher rate for 2024 compared to 2023; partially offset by a smaller charter-in fleet.

Shipping EBITDA increased 24 percent to $396 million (AED1,456 million) for FY 2024, contributing to a three-percentage point expansion in EBITDA margin to 41 percent.

Revenues from the Services segment increased 10 percent to $312 million (AED1,147 million) compared to FY 2023. This segment generated an EBITDA of $56 million (AED206 million), up 26 percent y-o-y, mainly powered by increased volumes in petroleum ports and onshore terminal operations.
