From Product Specification to Delivery Planning

The key stages in turning an initial petroleum trade brief into a clearer commercial conversation.

IMPERIAL
An effective commercial discussion typically starts by defining the required petroleum product and its quality specifications. The next step is to discuss estimated volume, supply feasibility and the destination market.
