SECTION 1 — Understanding the Real Context (Macro + Industry)

1.1 The Real Problem Behind Fake EN590 Sellers

The market is full of:

  • brokers with no mandate

  • recycled SCOs from 2019–2023

  • sellers who rely on unverifiable storage documents

  • offers with unrealistic prices “$200 below Platts”

  • procedures that violate refinery policy or international banking rules

Buyers often lose months dealing with non-performers because they do not know how real petroleum supply chains work.

1.2 Market Reality in 2025

Factor Impact
Geopolitical tensions (Russia/EU/Asia) Tightened supply lines
Sanctions More complicated verification
Refinery production limits Sellers require stronger buyer proof
Bank compliance (AML/CTF) Mandatory KYC & enhanced due diligence
Rise of digital fraud Fake POP, SGS, CPA, storage receipts

Result:
Only institutional buyers with proper documentation and clear procedures can access genuine EN590 supply.

1.3 Key Technical Elements Buyers Must Understand

  • Title Holder vs. Reseller

  • Refinery Allocation (Monthly) vs. Spot Position

  • Q&Q (Quantity & Quality) by SGS, Intertek, Saybolt

  • POP (Proof of Product) – tiers vary based on buyer compliance

  • DTA (Dip Test Authorization)

  • TTT (Tank-to-Tank transfer)

  • TTM (Tank-to-Ship / Ship-to-Ship)

  • CIF vs. FOB vs. CI-DIP-and-PAY


SECTION 2 — Full Explanation: How to Verify a Real EN590 Seller (A–Z)

2.1 Definition: What Is a “Real Seller”?

A real EN590 seller is:

  • a refinery

  • a refinery allocation holder (validated)

  • a storage owner with product physically held

  • a major trading house with confirmed title

Not a WhatsApp contact
Not a person sending PDFs
Not someone proposing “no KYC needed”
Not someone promising impossible discounts

2.2 The Only Valid Methods to Authenticate a Seller

1. Corporate Verification

  • Full corporate KYC

  • Certificate of Incorporation

  • Tax ID

  • Board Resolution

  • Proof of Address

  • Beneficial Ownership (UBO)

2. Compliance + Banking Verification

  • Company bank coordinates (no balances required)

  • Sanctions list check

  • AML/KYC check

  • SWIFT capability (MT799, MT760, MT103)

3. Product Verification

  • Storage tank receipts (TSR)

  • SGS Q&Q (recent, not older than 72 hours)

  • Terminal operator confirmation (Rotterdam, Fujairah, Houston, Jurong)

  • CPA (Commercial Passport Authorization) if applicable

4. Allocation Verification

If seller is an allocation holder, require:

  • LOA (Letter of Allocation)

  • CPA or refinery confirmation

  • Monthly quota confirmation

  • Terminal codes (TN#)

5. Procedure Compliance Check

A real seller follows a standard refinery procedure:

  • ICPO

  • KYC

  • NCNDA/IMFPA

  • SCO

  • SPA / TSA

  • POP

  • Payment

  • Title Transfer

  • Lift / TTT / CIF / FOB

A fake seller usually sends:
🚫 self-invented procedures
🚫 no compliance steps
🚫 no banking steps
🚫 promises of cheap fuel with no due diligence

2.3 Examples of Realistic vs. Fake Offers

Realistic EN590 offer (Rotterdam):

  • Price: Platts minus $25–$60

  • Procedure: CI-Dip-Pay, TTT, FOB Rotterdam

  • POP after ICPO + KYC

  • Q&Q by SGS

  • Payment: MT103 or Escrow

Fake offer indicators:

  • “$200 below Platts”

  • No POP until payment

  • No KYC required

  • No ICPO required

  • “Full tank takeover in 48h”

SECTION 5 — The 20 Questions Buyers & Sellers Ask (With Professional Answers)

Buyers (10 Questions)

  1. How do I know the seller is real?
    Check storage documents, Q&Q, CPA, compliance KYC, and terminal confirmation.

  2. Why can’t the seller give full POP before ICPO?
    Refineries are legally prohibited from releasing POP without buyer identification.

  3. Why do prices vary so much?
    Because premiums, sanctions, logistics, and quotas change daily.

  4. Can I get POP before showing POF?
    No. POP is sensitive and protected under compliance laws.

  5. Why do procedures differ?
    Refinery vs. reseller vs. allocation holder each have distinct rules.

  6. Is TTT safer than CIF?
    TTT offers immediate inspection; CIF shifts risk to seller.

  7. Why is the discount small?
    Genuine sellers follow Platts-based pricing; fake sellers offer huge fake discounts.

  8. Why do I need SWIFT readiness?
    Because banks must verify your financial capability before POP release.

  9. Do you accept escrow?
    Yes, with Lloyds, HSBC UK, UBS, UOB Singapore.

  10. How fast can the deal close?
    10–30 days depending on compliance.


Sellers (10 Questions)

  1. How do I verify if the buyer is real?

  3. Why must I share tank details through official channels only?
    To avoid fraud and protect terminal data.

    They were never capable; they sent ICPO without proof of funds.

    Refuse them. Work only through NNRV’s institutional structure.

    Yes. It is common for long-term contracts.
