The operating flow

One connected path through the work.

01

Connect counterparties, commercial terms, credit policy, contracts, and approval conditions.
02

Link nominations, voyages, quantities, tank stock, documents, and operational changes.
03
Value and settle

The business case

Define the improvement before the investment.

The operating challenge

Trading, logistics, terminals, credit, risk and finance reconstruct the same transaction chain in separate records.

The decision to improve

Reduce reconciliation and re-entry between trading, logistics, terminals, credit, risk and finance. Make commercial margins, stock movements, settlement obligations and approval exceptions traceable to the underlying deal.

Who should be in the room

Commodity trading operations director
Trading COO
Product control/risk leader
Credit and settlement manager
Energy finance/treasury systems owner

A focused first scope

One physical-liquid commodity book and one terminal/voyage chain, using test counterparties and agreed pricing, inventory, credit, risk and accounting policies; validate one trade and one purchase through settlement and reconciliation.

Build a measurable baseline.

Capacity value = annual trades/voyages/statements × verified processing hours reduced × loaded hourly cost. Working-capital, margin and risk outcomes require customer baselines and independent financial/model validation.

Agree the baseline, comparable scope, adoption, review effort, and realization assumptions. Include delivery and operating costs; count each benefit once.
