''At CITASCO our vision and values are interconnected with the idea of a so called ''Purpose Economy''. A system where maximum wealth growth is no longer sought but rather a society where wealth and well-being are congruent and thriving''
About CITASCO
- CITASCO was originally created after the official invitation of the Curaçao government and the leadership of the Refinery of Curaçao to visit the refinery on the island. The company was formed with the aim to support the governments in the Dutch Caribbean and the refinery workers with the continuation of the refining and oil terminal activities in the Dutch Caribbean Kingdom. CITASCO was selected by IHS MARKIT as a preferred partner for the so-called short-term solution.
- Ever since, CITASCO, alongside its team of industry experts, has consistently developed its business, expanded its network, and diversified its portfolio. This commitment has propelled CITASCO into becoming a recognized and reliable global energy trader and producer of critical minerals.

The CITASCO logo
The liquid energy drop in the centre of our logo refers to our long track record and expertise in the energy industries. The blue, green shape surrounding the liquid energy drop represents the shell of a turtle. An animal that stands for longevity and perseverance, something that describes our business character and way of working. Additionally, the animal and the colours represent our roots and history in the Dutch Caribbean (Curaçao). At last, with the colours (green/blue) of the shield, we do not only want to indicate that we are aiming to take part in the global energy transition, but also take the consequences of our core business (the liquid energy drop) into account and that we operate in a responsible manner in order to limit our ecological footprint.
