Our Focus

Refined petroleum products within structured commercial frameworks

We focus on programme-based supply of refined petroleum products where counterparties seek stable, contract-based monthly volumes. Product is supplied under direct refinery contract, FOB (Incoterms 2020) to Rotterdam, Fujairah, Houston or Jurong, with SGS or CIQ inspection at the port of loading. Programmes begin with a trial batch and run for 12 to 36 months.

How We Work

Structured engagement from review to execution

Our engagement model supports serious commercial discussion, disciplined programme development, and responsible execution across every transaction.

1
Counterparty Review

Initial engagement begins with review of the counterparty profile, the proposed commercial framework, and the overall suitability of the enquiry — including compliance standing and documentation capability.

2
Programme Structuring

Where there is alignment, discussions move to programme structure, supply expectations, pricing mechanism, contract basis, and the practical requirements for repeat monthly liftings.

3
Execution & Delivery

Transactions proceed through clear contractual terms, recognised commercial standards — including SGS/Intertek inspection, marine cargo insurance, and SARS customs clearance — through to final delivery and invoicing.

Procedures & Documentation

How a transaction is initiated and executed

We engage under recognised soft corporate offer (SCO) frameworks with our supply partners. Pricing is issued only in a fresh corporate offer (FCO) to a verified counterparty, never on this website or in open correspondence.

1
Letter of Intent

The buyer issues an LOI on company letterhead stating product, monthly quantity, destination port, delivery terms and intended contract duration.

2
KYC / CIS

A standard Company Information Sheet is completed, with the company registration certificate and passport copy of the authorised signatory. Proof of funds may be requested for verification.

3
Fresh Corporate Offer

Once verification is complete, the counterparty receives an FCO with pricing and the applicable transaction procedure. Refinery details are disclosed only at this stage.

4
ICPO

The buyer issues an irrevocable corporate purchase order with banking details, together with a tank storage agreement (TSA) or charter party agreement (CPA) as the procedure requires.

5
Commercial Invoice & Proof of Product

The seller issues a commercial invoice. On countersignature, proof of product documents are released for the buyer to verify directly with the inspection company and storage operator.

6
Dip Test, Payment & Title

The buyer conducts a dip test in the seller's tank or on injection into its own tank or vessel. Payment follows verified Q&Q, then title transfer and export documents. Intermediaries are paid under NCNDA/IMFPA.

Available procedures
Delivery methods
  • Tank to tank (TTT): FOB Houston or Rotterdam, product injected into the buyer's leased storage
  • Tank to vessel (TTV / TTVIA): buyer provides vessel IMO, Q88 and a signed injection agreement
  • Seller tank takeover (STTO): buyer leases the seller's tank for the dip test period
  • Ship to ship (STS): spot transfer at an agreed location under a charter party agreement
  • Escrow option: available on one procedure through the seller's appointed law firm
Released after countersigned invoice
Proof of product documents
  • Fresh SGS analysis report, not older than 48 hours

  • Authorisation to verify (ATV) and authorisation to sell and collect (ATSC)
  • Dip test authorisation (DTA) and injection report
  • Certificate of origin, product passport and notice of readiness (NOR)

We do not forward refinery details, proof of product or pricing to any party before the LOI and KYC/CIS have been received and verified. Enquiries that skip these steps or request documentation ahead of verification will not be advanced.
