Line 65:
The company also provides consulting and training services for oil and gas and terminal operations. As part of its push to support sustainable models, Marlberg AB has also begun to expand into offshore wind power.
Marlberg AB attempted to expand its operations into on-shore oil drilling and mining in Älemsi Negdel, but lost out on lucrative contracts to the Tynami-Älemsi Exploratory Cooperative and the Polstjärnan Group. Marlberg AB later brought lawsuits against both these companies and Duchess Saga of Tynam, claiming that she had leveraged her family connections with the Gazny clan and engaged in corrupt activities to illegally undercut Marlberg AB's operations in Älemsi Negdel. These suits were eventually withdrawn.

=== Lobbying Scandals ===
Due to its immense size relative to many other Cryrian entities and its status as a national symbol, Marlberg AB has often been thought to wield disproportionate political influence in Leidenstad. The powerful Shipping Lobby has notably upheld favorable tax rates for the shipping industry that exempts it from the regular corporate tax rate in order to ensure that it remains on Cryrian soil. Marlberg AB also became embroiled in scandals towards the end of Prime Minister Charles Marlberg's 18-year rule when it violated lobbying regulations in its push for the privatization of oil drilling and port infrastructure in the Kingdom. This effort ultimately failed and contributed to the fall of the Marlberg Government.
