Trading Across Petroleum Products

Chemie-Tech's trading activity sits alongside the wider industrial platform, connecting producers to buyers through both physical trading and intermediary market positions, with particular strength where technical product understanding matters.

Trading Platform

A product-led trading activity connected to refining output and broader market relationships.

The trading business focuses on products the group understands technically. Supply is supported through refining interests and third-party producer relationships.

This supports trading across a broad range of petroleum products, backed by product knowledge, buyer alignment and supply coordination.

Technical product knowledge supports specification review, buyer alignment and supply coordination.

Product Coverage

All Petroleum Products

Trading coverage is organised around core refinery, fuel, bitumen and lubricant product requirements.

Petroleum Product Coverage

Chemie-Tech supports physical trading and intermediary market positions across the following petroleum product categories:

Crude Oil Gasoline Gas Oil Fuel Oil Heavy Aromatic Bitumen Base Oil Groups I, II & III Lube Oil

Trading Models

Two ways Chemie-Tech participates in the market.

The trading platform can operate as direct physical trader or as market intermediary, depending on product, counterparty, and transaction structure.

Physical Trading

Direct product ownership and delivery coordination.

Chemie-Tech buys and sells physical product directly, coordinating supply, logistics, inspection, and delivery into industrial buyer channels.

Direct product ownership when deal structure requires it
Logistics and delivery coordination across shipment flow
Quality verification and specification control
Group-linked refining output as a potential supply source
Intermediary Market Role

Connecting producers and buyers without full ownership on every transaction.

Chemie-Tech can also act as intermediary, using producer access, buyer relationships, and product knowledge to facilitate transactions more efficiently.

Producer access through refining and industrial relationships
Technical knowledge advantage on specification-sensitive products
Established industrial buyer relationships
Lower capital exposure on selected intermediary trades

Strategic Advantage

Why trading works inside the Chemie-Tech platform.

Integration with refining supports product knowledge, sourcing and access to selected markets.

Integrated with Refining

The trading business can access group-linked refining output and adjacent producer relationships, which creates a stronger commercial position in selected product lines.

Technical Product Understanding

Specification-sensitive categories such as solvents and process oils benefit from deeper industrial understanding than a purely transactional trading model can usually offer.

Market Access and Offtake Coordination

Trading allows the group to participate more directly in product economics between refinery gate and end-market pricing where the product mix supports stronger returns.
