Understanding Fuel Supplier Procedures
Procedures are like train tracks. If you stay on the rails, you get to your destination. If you go off the rails, you become a train wreck. Don’t be a train wreck!
Potential fuel buyers must understand what fuel manufacturers expect from them before engaging in any transaction. This knowledge ensures a successful lift and minimizes the possibility of failure.
Due Diligence: If you expect problems during a transaction, you will certainly find one. This will terminate an otherwise good transaction. Conduct your due diligence before bringing us an order. We expect that you have submitted an Irrevocable Corporate Purchase Order (ICPO) because you wish to transact.
Pricing: Our pricing is “refinery direct” and is not connected to Platts, which is based upon traders’ pricing. The fuel has not yet been re-traded.
Established Refineries: We partner with refineries that have been in business for years (one since 1949) and have successfully delivered various fuels for decades.
Mutual Investment: Manufacturers have a significant investment in their fuels through crude acquisition, refining, transporting, and storing them at major ports worldwide. They expect buyers to make a similar investment before transferring fuel to them.
Proof of Product (POP): Manufacturers do not provide POP for free. Buyers must demonstrate the ability to receive fuel by having all their storage resources in place before receiving POP.
Third-Party Logistics: These investments are paid to third-party logistics providers, not to the manufacturers themselves (except in cases of tank extensions). Manufacturers take no fees and only make money by selling fuel, typically after the fuel is in the buyer’s possession.
Active Buyers Preferred: This policy favors active buyers with currently rented tanks, which is a de facto demonstration of an investment in the ability to receive fuel once POP is approved.
Non-Negotiable Procedures: Manufacturers’ procedures cannot be changed in any way. Do not attempt to negotiate the procedure once a transaction starts, as this will only lead to cancellation.
Finally, an ICPO is literally the beginning of an order. It is not an opportunity to negotiate the procedure. It is assumed that you have done your due diligence on the manufacturer and that you are ready to transact. Make sure you understand what is required of you in any given procedure, and you will receive POP at the appropriate point in the procedure and not beforehand.
