Transport and Logistics
Kerularios & Company is best known for its coverage across the globe. Other than its main trade lanes of Eura-Keltia and Eura-Tapfer, the company now also offers extensive coverage to Benacia, mainly to Ransenar, the Sovereign Confederation, Drak-Modan, and to the United Governorates.
The company has begun to pioneer the innovative concept of Daily Kerularios in 1675 AN, which provided a premium guaranteed service between supply ports of Eura, Tapfer, and Keltia. Recent restructuring of its products has included upgrades to their Alduria-Constancia, Constancia-Wechua, Constancia-Natopia, Alduria-Ransenar, Alduria-Krasnocoria, and Alduria-Natopia routes.
Other than the main routes, Kerularios & Company also operates many continental trade lines, with the InterEuran routes being the busiest and profitable.

KerOil
Kerularios Oil, also known as KerOil, was established in 1670 AN when the government of Alduria and Kerularios & Company created a joint venture that was awarded a concession for oil and gas exploration and production in Alduria.
Today, Kerularios Oil is engaged in the exploration for and production of oil and gas in Alduria and Natopia. Total oil production is more than 175,000 barrels per day. Most of this production is from Alkhiva, Alduria, but there is also production in offshore Alduria.
Gas production is up to some 1 billion cubic feet (28,000,000 m³) per day, with nearly all of its production coming from the Thalassan and Transegale|Transegalian (formerly Alexandrian) natural gas fields and infrastructure.
The company prides itself for having developed production techniques specially suited to a wide range of difficult environments and problematic underground conditions.

Controversies
Disappearance of Maximinus Kerularios
See: Kerularios War.
- IG narrative of what happens during the time I left Micras, Kerularios War, Constancian action to take over the company, ESB rescues MK from post-collapse Caputia, the company is restored by Constancia, but with "new business terms" (rumors are that the Constancian government is now part owner or there's some sort of massive bribing scheme where the company pay money to Constancia to operate there, etc etc.
- Rescue operation by the ESB Group of MK.
Political involvement in Alduria
- K&Co has a policy of no company-sourced political donations. However, individuals are free to give to political campaigns and causes, many top Kerularios & Co executives and major shareholders as individuals write large campaign finance checks to many different individual candidates, parties, and organized causes. This has caused political attention to be given to recipients of these donations - though it is unclear to the recipients if recognizing it and commenting on it hurts or benefits.
- K&Co has purchased a lot of Aldurian government debt, helped finance infrastructure projects through public-private partnerships, operates the Punta Santiago International Airport and its wide array of retail and hotels. Insiders believe that K&Co was favored for the deal due to its large stake in the country's construction.
- K&Co lobbies to funnel government oil drilling supply and procurement contracts to K&Co subsidiaries, has sought to find someone who can introduce a bill that requires all government operations, as well as joint public-private oil operations, to only use their oil drilling products, technologies, and tools.
Political involvement in Ransenar
- K&Co: mass privatization of state-owned farms and farming cooperatives in Ransenar to fund the nascent Kingdom led to K&Co being one of the largest landowners in Ransenar. High wages gain company favor from labor and farmer unions. The favor this did to the nascent Ransenari government, which claimed credit for the wage rises, was not forgotten. K&Co provides financing to some government infrastructure projects, mainly roads, bridges, and housing.
