AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

US-Iran Peace Push & Hormuz Watch: Kuwait welcomed a US-Iran memorandum aimed at ending the war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, with Trump saying ships are starting to move and a formal signing expected in Switzerland; Gulf states urged full implementation and safe navigation, but analysts warn oil flows and prices won’t normalize overnight as hundreds of tankers remain stuck and captains/insurers wait for clear safety. KPC Oil Sales Shift: Kuwait Petroleum Corp (KPC) offered crude to Asian buyers directly for the first time since the 1990-91 war, a sign of how the regional disruption is reshaping Kuwait’s sales strategy. Kuwait Energy & Finance Moves: Action Energy secured KWD 40.9m in credit facilities for rig fleet expansion in Kuwait, while CITRA reported revenues of KD 115m (+4.3%) in 2025-26. Aviation & Infrastructure: US cleared a $236m support package for Kuwait’s KC-130J fleet; Kuwait’s airport Terminal 4 resumed limited flights, and the Municipal Council approved multiple infrastructure and utility projects. Business & Community: Jazeera Airways named Andrew Littledale as CFO from 1 July; LuLu Hypermarket and LuLu Exchange tied remittances to loyalty points; Kuwait also saw strong blood donation response amid tensions.
