How it works

One procedure, from first inquiry to final settlement

Crude Desk follows the steps a real petroleum transaction already takes — and keeps the record of each one.

  1. STEP 01

    Inquiry

    Buyers post requirements and sellers publish allocations with LOI, ICPO, SCO or FCO attached.

  2. STEP 02

    Verify

    Every counterparty clears KYC/KYB, proof of product or funds, and sanctions screening.

  3. STEP 03

    Match

    Masked listings are matched on grade, volume, port and Incoterms — identities stay hidden.

  4. STEP 04

    Contract

    NCNDA, IMFPA and SPA are generated from templates and signed electronically.

  5. STEP 05

    Ship

    Nominate a vessel, fix the charter and follow the cargo live from load port to discharge.

  6. STEP 06

    Settle

    The paymaster reconciles each lifting and releases commissions to every party.

Products

Listings, inquiries and settlements are recorded per grade, in barrels or metric tonnes.
