1 Twenty-Foot Container of Crude Oil Required by a Verified Buyer in the United Kingdom
A verified buyer in the United Kingdom is sourcing crude oil, indicating a volume of 1 Twenty-Foot Container. Delivery is sought into United Kingdom on CIF terms, with settlement by an irrevocable letter of credit, so responding sellers should be positioned to perform on a seaborne cargo rather than a small parcel. The buyer's note specifies type WTI Crude Oil, hs code 270900. Suppliers preparing an offer should be ready to evidence crude oil on a current certificate of quality, covering for crude grades, API gravity, sulphur content, BS&W, pour point and density; for refined products such as gasoil or jet fuel, the sulphur grade, cetane number, flash point and density, reported against the usual ASTM or ISO test methods. At first contact, proof of product, a verifiable allocation, and a clear statement of available volume count for more than headline price. Quality and quantity are normally established by an independent inspector such as SGS, Saybolt or Intertek, with sampling and a dip test at the load port and re-inspection at the discharge port. Crude oil moves as bulk liquid cargo, so the offer should name the load port, the nominated vessel or laycan window, and the volume that can genuinely be lifted, rather than any packaging or container detail. Trade terms most often negotiated are FOB at the load port and CIF or CFR to the discharge port, here United Kingdom; under CIF the seller arranges the vessel and marine insurance through to discharge. Quote Incoterms 2020 explicitly so risk transfer is unambiguous. Payment on cargoes of this size is usually an irrevocable documentary letter of credit at sight or a standby letter of credit confirmed bank to bank, which matches the instrument this buyer has specified. A complete first response covers grade compliance against the buyer's note, a delivered price tied to a recognised benchmark with a clear validity window, proof of product, the load port and laycan, the inspection regime, and the bank instrument the offer can perform against.
