Connecting major refineries with global energy distributors. We specialize in middle distillates and gas products for industrial and aviation sectors.
Global Energy Trading: Securing the Flow of Fuel
Energy is the pulse of the global economy. From the diesel powering freight trucks to the jet fuel keeping aviation aloft, the supply chain must be seamless, compliant, and cost-effective.
At WorldwideTradeX, we specialize in Middle Distillates (Diesel, Jet Fuel) and Natural Gas products. We operate strictly within the ARA (Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp) hub and major refining centers like Houston and Fujairah.

1. Diesel Fuel (Gas Oil): EN590 Specification
The world runs on diesel, but not all diesel is created equal.
- EN590 (10 PPM Sulphur): The European standard for ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD). Reduces emissions (Euro 5/6 engines).
- Flash Point: >55°C (Safety Requirement).
- Cetane Index: >46.0 (Ignition Quality).
2. Aviation Kerosene: Jet A1 purity
Aircraft engines have zero tolerance for impurities. Jet Fuel is arguably the most tightly controlled commodity.
- Freeze Point: -47°C Max. Essential for high-altitude performance.
- Water Separation (MSEP): Must shed water quickly to prevent fuel line icing.
- Documentation: Strictly compliant with JIG (Joint Inspection Group) standards.
3. Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)
LNG is the bridge fuel to a low-carbon future.
- Pricing: Linked to JKM or TTF indices.
- Calorific Value: ~52 MMBtu/MT high-energy density.
- Shipping: Cryogenic vessels or ISO Tank Containers (40ft) for small-scale distribution.
4. Trading Procedures: FOB vs. CIF
FOB (Free On Board) - Tank-to-Tank
The buyer's vessel receives product at the seller's terminal (Rotterdam/Houston/Fujairah).- Verification: Dip Test Authorization (DTA) for quantity and quality check.
- Transfer: Title transfer occurs at the loading flange.
CIF (Cost, Insurance & Freight) - Delivered
The seller pays for shipping to the buyer's port (ASWP).
- Guarantee: Performance Bond (2%) issued by seller.
- Incoterms: Standard 2020 protocols for risk management.
5. Global Energy Corridors (GEO-Targeting)
ARA Hub (Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp)
The primary entry point for European energy. We utilize tank storage in Rotterdam for immediate TTT (Tank-to-Tank) transfers of EN590 and Jet A1.Middle East / Fujairah
A critical strategic location for bunkering and eastern energy flows. Sourcing focuses on high-capacity refiners in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.US Gulf Coast (Houston)
Gateway to the Americas. We facilitate large-scale exports of refined distillates from Gulf Coast refineries under strict non-sanctioned compliance.6. Quick Technical Reference: Energy Products

Can you provide a Dip Test?
Dip Test is available for FOB transactions after the buyer provides a valid Tank Storage Agreement (TSA) and CPA.
Do you work with broker chains?
No. We work directly with refinery mandate holders and end-buyers to ensure secure transactions.
