Our values
The principles behind every decision
Our values guide every partnership and strategy, so that we achieve our business goals while contributing positively to the communities and environments in which we operate.
01
Integrity and ethics
We conduct our business with honesty, transparency and accountability. These are not open to negotiation.
02
Quality and excellence
We source and deliver products of the highest quality and hold every part of our work to the same standard.
03
Innovation
We look for better and more effective ways to meet the changing needs of our clients and markets.
04
Sustainability
We favour practices that reduce environmental impact and protect natural resources.
05
Compliance
Every activity is carried out in line with the legal and regulatory requirements that apply to it.
06
Safety
The safety of employees, partners and communities comes before any commercial consideration.
07
Respect
We value diversity and treat everyone with respect, so that all can contribute and thrive.
Commercial philosophy
We prefer the right transaction to the next one
Volume is not a measure of quality in this business. We would rather decline a cargo than accept terms we cannot meet or a counterparty we do not understand.
Each transaction is assessed on its own merits: the reliability of supply, the credit of the buyer, the practicality of the delivery and the clarity of the contract.
Counterparties
How we work with counterparties
01
Due diligence first
We confirm who we are dealing with, who owns them and where the oil and the money come from before any commercial commitment.
02
One point of contact
Counterparties deal with the same people throughout a transaction, from the first offer to final settlement.
03
Plain contracts
Our contracts use recognised trade terms and say clearly who is responsible for what, when risk passes and how disputes are resolved.
Business principles
The principles we work by
- We comply with the laws of the United Arab Emirates and of every jurisdiction in which we trade.
- We do not trade with parties that are subject to applicable sanctions, and we do not handle cargoes of sanctioned origin.
- We do not offer, pay or accept bribes or improper payments of any kind.
- We keep complete and accurate records of every transaction.
- We treat the commercial information of our counterparties as confidential.
