Crude Oil

Meridian Energy sources and trades crude oil from a range of geographical markets, connecting producers and trading partners with demand in high-growth markets across Asia and beyond.

Connecting global supply with customer demand

Our globally based team works with national oil companies, producers and established trading partners. These relationships, combined with market intelligence and disciplined execution, help us identify supply opportunities and structure transactions around each customer’s operating requirements and schedule.

Because physical crude trading involves more than agreeing a price, our commercial, operations, chartering, finance and risk teams work together from origination through delivery and settlement.

Integrated execution

• Origination and supply: We identify suitable physical supply and align product, timing and commercial terms with the customer’s requirements.
• Shipping and storage: Voyage and time-charter capabilities, together with access to onshore and floating storage, support delivery planning and inventory flexibility.
• Risk management: Pricing and hedging structures can include benchmark conversion and ISDA solutions where appropriate to the transaction.
• Financial solutions: Tailored financing may include structures such as title retention until discharge, subject to the agreed transaction.
• Governance: Credit assessment, counterparty monitoring, documentation and internal controls support secure commercial decisions.

Experience across physical crude markets

Meridian Energy’s trading history includes crude oil cargoes lifted through the Shanghai International Energy Exchange and ICE Futures Abu Dhabi. These milestones reflect practical experience navigating different supply origins, pricing references and delivery requirements.
