- Vietnam Petroleum Transport Joint Stock Company is a Vietnam-based maritime logistics and energy transportation enterprise primarily engaged in the coastal and international marine transportation of crude oil, refined petroleum products, liquefied petroleum gas, and petrochemicals. Founded in 1980 and headquartered in Hai Phong, Vietnam, the company operates as a key transportation subsidiary of Vietnam National Petroleum Group. The company manages its operations across several core business segments: Marine Transportation, which provides coastal and ocean freight shipping, vessel chartering, and offshore transport of clean petroleum products, dirty cargo, and chemicals utilizing an owned and operated tanker fleet serving domestic Vietnamese ports and regional international sea routes across Southeast Asia and East Asia; Land Transportation and Logistics, which offers inland fuel trucking services through specialized tank trucks, freight forwarding, multimodal cargo transit, customs brokerage, and container hauling; Maritime Services and Technical Support, which provides ship agency services, vessel management, ship brokering, crew management, marine towing, bunkering, vessel maintenance, and marine spare parts and provisions supply; Petroleum and Petrochemical Trading, which engages in the wholesale distribution and retail marketing of automotive gasoline, diesel fuels, industrial lubricants, and specialized liquid petroleum products through company-managed fuel stations; and Commercial Real Estate and Warehousing, which delivers office space leasing, logistics warehousing, and port terminal yard storage services. In recent operational developments, the company has advanced a fleet rationalization and modernization program, divesting aging and non-compliant oil product tankers to optimize fleet efficiency, reduce maintenance expenditures, and align with international environmental and emissions regulations. Additionally, the company has recalibrated its chartering strategy by securing higher proportions of medium- and long-term time charter agreements to hedge against global spot freight rate volatility, while reinforcing supply chain integration with its parent group to expand international maritime trading routes.
