Utmost Gulf GT receives ‘flagship’ order of Mercedes trucks

Emirates Motor Company delivers 75 Mercedes-Benz Trucks to Utmost Gulf for major oilfield transport expansion

Abu Dhabi-based Emirates Motor Company Commercial Vehicles (EMC) has announced the successful delivery of 75 new Mercedes-Benz trucks to long-term partner Utmost Gulf General Transport.

The fleet comprises the powerful Arocs 4048 6×6 and ACTROS 6×4 models, both engineered to withstand the region’s toughest terrain and support the growing demands of the UAE’s oilfield transport sector.

The large order is a continuation of EMC’s ongoing relationship with Utmost Gulf General Transport, a company that has been a key player in oilfield logistics for over 15 years. With the addition of the latest Mercedes-Benz trucks, Utmost Gulf is enhancing its capacity to provide heavy-duty transport solutions across remote and demanding work environments, explained EMC.

“These trucks represent the perfect combination of power, durability and performance,” EMC commented in a statement. “The Mercedes-Benz Arocs and ACTROS ranges are specifically designed for extreme operating conditions, featuring robust chassis configurations, reinforced axles, and high-torque drivelines.”

The Arocs 4048 6×6 is particularly suited for off-road applications, while the ACTROS 6×4 offers a strong on-road presence with enhanced payload and fuel efficiency. Both vehicles are expected to play a pivotal role in optimising operations for Utmost Gulf’s fleet, especially in servicing the UAE’s oil and gas infrastructure.

EMC added: “We are confident that this powerful new fleet will contribute significantly to Utmost Gulf’s continued success and operational excellence in the years to come.”
