Crude oil business, General conditions:

Api Energy & Metals would be delighted to enter mutual discussions for long term contractual to source & supply Crude Oil. Prior we apply to any Crude Oil purchase request we should clarify few facts which are common and well known to professional petroleum end users:

 – Crude Oil is not allowed for resell and nor tradable commodity. So that buyer should be end user “Refinery only” or Petroleum Company with process agreement with well-known refinery. 

– Crude Oil allocation is un-assignable contract, which means the allocation holder is the only beneficiary whom should be the end user. All allocations are treated as primary transaction.

 – All sales contracts based on yearly commitment and settled directly between Producer and refiner.

 – Refinery or Petroleum Company, which requests crude oil, shall submit the following documents:

  1.  Refinery Profile. 
  2.  Refinery production capacity & storage available at refinery. 
  3.  Mandate Letter/refining agreement issued in favor of Api ( if applicable)
  4.  For petroleum Company, please add to the above copy of processing agreement with refinery.

At the receiving of above documents Api will start process with producer and inform buyer
step by step about the progress in regards to obtain crude oil allocation in favor of the
applicant.
Api regret of not being able to supply any offer, or to reply to buyer inquiry for Crude Oil
supplementary unless the above documents are presented and dully verified prior we
present them to crude producer.

Refined petroleum products:

Diesel:

We supply premium ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD) with high cetane value and very low sulphur content, ensuring clean combustion, reliable performance, and compliance with international standards.
