Register to Buy
BLCO
from Verified Sellers
This article is to help inform a real buyer of the registration procedure
required to be able to start the buying process.
If you are a buyer wishing to Buy
BLCO
from Verified Sellers these are the procedures:
State first in an email with full company details and
buyer's details (if different) indicating your requirements.
State Requirements as applicable.
Single Purchase(Spot) include number of barrels
Monthly Contract
Include the monthly amount in Barrels
Type of
Contract :
CIF,
TTT, TTO,
FOB
If CIF,
Destination Country
i.e.: We want 2 M bbls per month CIF to
Rotterdam $6 net to the buyer.
We will take it from there and match you up with a seller.
We will advise you of availability. At the present time we have 5
different NNPC Approved Fiduciaries. We are not the exclusive seller for
these people so this amount available at a given time is obviously going to
be reduced, without notice, as these Fiduciaries sell product.
Each seller has every right to sell via the price and procedure and the
price is normally set by Brent.
You should know that product coming out of
Nigeria
is in high demand, being the best crude choices in the world,
“Brent vs
BLCO“.
Nigeria
has many refineries that are already buying stock at full price via OPEC
transactions. We
deal
exclusively in Off-OPEC where the product is offered at current market
levels based on Brent with a discount BUT the Seller’s side is ALWAYS
CLOSED.
That means every agent in the
deal
is on the buyer’s side (that includes you and anyone behind you ). The
Sellers pay us on the sellers side for the marketing and negotiation
services we render them. If that is unacceptable to the buyer or the buyer’s
mandate they can apply for the bidding process and buy via OPEC at full
price next year or try their luck with another NAF where the seller’s side
is most likely also closed. This is just the results of a free market
offering. There should almost always be $1 open on the buyer’s side, usually
more.
Now this leads to another conclusion. We only want to work with a buyer,
a buyer’s mandate or an agent direct to the mandate or buyer; more people
than that and it is just too cumbersome to get the
deal
done. Please remember, this is a
business
where you are doing all the work on the front end and once the work is done
you are paid over and over again without further labour involved.
We will work out the basic details of the
purchase
through
agents
to define price, procedures and commissions. All of this can usually be
done via email. Once agreed upon, we will do the next step, which is to
send the SPA with bank instrument verbiage. Once the buyer’s bank has
approved the verbiage we have essentially a pre-qualified buyer. Please
review the importance of this step in this article about
POF Importance.
We don’t need an
NCND. The reason we do this is for everyone in the
deal
to know who gets what and to define honourable behaviour and to act in a
clear and transparent manner. Normally IMFPA is included in the
SPA which includes commission details. Otherwise sign an
NCND/IMFPA this document is emailed to the person closest to us in
the chain. Each signs and forwards to to the next person until it
arrives at the Buyer. The buyer then signs, converts the document to a
PDF and mails it to each person. When we get the document back we will
forward the
SPA to the Seller.
When we receive the IMFPA it is time to get a written approval of
the price and procedures. When they buyer send this letter to us on his
letterhead we then know the buyer is serious and wants to proceed. We
also ask for the buyer’s profile so the seller knows who they are
dealing with.
At this point it is time to take the procedure and the price from
the buyer’s approval letter and insert those items into the
contract and get final
contract approval from the seller and send the
contract. The
NNPC Approved Fiduciary’s Authority to sell document will be provided
with the final documents. This document has already been verified by a
different buyer so we know this will not be any problem. We have a
separate article about how this is done. Since we have already done this
we know where and how to get it done.
The buyer now has submitted the
contract(SPA)
Now that their due diligence has been carried out they proceed
to get their affairs order and begin the purchase process
following the agreed procedure.
