The Line

Fuel For Fleets, Plants And Power

The desk supplies refined oil products and diesel, by the cargo or on a standing programme, with the lubricants and greases the same machines cannot run without.

The Products

Every Grade Answers To A Published Standard

Every grade on offer is named by its published standard.

Diesel & Gasoil

Contracted to EN 590 in Europe and to ASTM D975 in the American market. The offer states which governs, and the test certificate answers to it.

Marine Fuels

Supplied to ISO 8217:2024, residual and distillate grades alike.

Lubricants & Greases

Engine oils graded for viscosity under SAE J300 and licensed for performance under API 1509; greases graded to NLGI consistency.

Fit For Purpose

The Right Product Depends On Where It Is Going

The offer names the grade for the route, the season and the destination: bunker grades to the ship's own equipment and its emission-control exposure, winter or summer diesel to the destination and the delivery month.

The Paper Trail

The Documents With Each Cargo

Every delivery this desk touches moves inside a documented chain, and each document can be tested by the party receiving it.

The Quality Certificate

The laboratory record of what the product is, issued against the governing specification, before anything sails.

The Independent Inspector

Quantity and quality certified by an independent inspection company.

The Bunker Delivery Note

Every ship taking fuel receives a note stating the sulphur content of what went on board, and samples may be taken to verify it.

Lubricants & Greases

Lubricants Are A Verification Business

Engine oils carrying the API marks are checkable in API's public directory of licensees.

Where an oil on offer carries the API marks, the licence behind them can be asked for; checking takes one search.

The Ground Rules

Proof Of Ownership And Source

Petroleum offered to the desk comes with documents proving its ownership and source, as UAE law requires of every licensed trader.
