STANDARD TRANSACTION PROCEDURES
Oil and Gas Transaction Procedures vary from client to client and it is always extremely difficult to get both buyer as well as seller agree to any one set of Transaction Procedures.
This Platform does not participate directly in any of the sale or purchase transactions between traders. However, as a facilitator of any deal transacted through this Platform, the management tries hard to put in place a mutually acceptable transaction procedure between clients on a case to case basis.
Whereas it is mandatory for all clients (buyers as well as sellers) to submit their own set of transaction procedure while submitting their specific buy or sell offers, The Platform management intervenes to make certain clients drop clauses which inevitably leads to any kind of upfront payment. We are listing a few examples below:
- Splitting "Shipping Charges" and asking the buyer to pay half of those charges to the shipping company prior actual shipment or handover of shipment.
- Asking for Banking Instrument prior verification of PPOP documents by the buyer.
- Asking the buyer for Tank Storage Receipt prior providing Proof Of Product, Location, and valid Inspection Report.
- Asking for any kind of payment on the pretext of any government charges.
- Providing Banking details that do not relate directly to either the buyer or the seller.
Please read our ideal transaction procedures for FOB, CIF, and Spot (Dip & Pay) transactions.
