Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, January 26, 2012: Dolphin Energy Limited today announced that it has acquired the Internet domain name 'dolphin.co' from .CO Internet S.A.S., the company that manages the .CO root domain.
The company will use the domain name 'dolphin.co' to enhance its existing online presence with a short, memorable domain that will help the company to engage with its stakeholders locally and across the Middle East region more easily.
The company has also taken the opportunity to register the both 'dolphin' and 'dolphinenergy' names under the Arabic .emirates and .qatar root domains respectively.
Dolphin Energy transports natural gas from Qatar to the emirates of the UAE and Oman. The move to acquire the 'dolphin.co' domain name comes at a time when there is an increase in the number of companies acquiring .CO domain names.
