Trade is a chain of decisions: which grade to buy, which route to use, which counterparty to trust, which timing to choose. Each decision carries a cost, and the cost is often invisible until the margin is gone. Our oil and petrochemical trade optimization service uses data and market analysis to make those decisions visible, so the trading desk can see where the margin sits and where it leaks.

The work covers the full trade cycle: sourcing, freight, storage, quality and the commercial structure. It is built for trading companies and industrial buyers who want a clearer view of their own supply chain.

What the service covers

• Sourcing analysis — which grades and which sources deliver the best netback.
• Freight and route review — the cost of moving the cargo from loading to discharge.
• Storage and working-capital analysis — the cost of holding inventory and the value of timing.
• Quality and specification review — matching the grade to the buyer’s specification without overpaying for quality.
• Commercial structure — the contract terms, the payment structure and the risk allocation.

Where the margin leaks

Most trading losses are not the result of one bad decision. They accumulate: a grade bought at a small premium, a freight route that is slightly longer than necessary, a storage cost that is not priced into the deal, a quality specification that is tighter than the buyer needs. Each item is small; together they decide the margin.

The optimization review makes each item visible. It compares the actual cost of the chain with the cost of the best available route, and it shows where the difference sits. The trading desk can then decide which items to fix and which to accept.

Who it is for

The service suits trading companies with a portfolio of grades and routes, industrial buyers with a complex supply chain, producers who want a clearer view of their export netback and investors evaluating a trading business. Each engagement starts with the client’s own data and its own commercial objective.

Is the service a software tool? It is an analytical review supported by data. The output is a written view of where the margin sits and where it leaks.

Can the review cover more than one grade? Yes. The scope is agreed with the client and can cover a portfolio of grades and routes.
