Industries — Base Oils

Grade-accurate base-oil trading, from tank to cargo.

TradeX handles Group I/II/III base-oil grades with batch and tank tracking, gauging, landed cost, and Incoterms — so bulk positions and valuations are always accurate.


What breaks first

Where spreadsheets fail a base oils desk.

01

Grades blur together

Group I/II/III grades are hard to keep distinct across tanks and movements in spreadsheets.

02

Bulk stock is an estimate

Without gauging, tank volumes and valuations drift from physical reality.

03

Landed cost left out

Freight and duties are tracked separately, so cargo economics are never precise.

04

No live position view

Open base-oil positions and exposure are not visible without manual consolidation.


In the product

Built for base oils — not retrofitted from a generic CTRM.

Grade & batch tracking

Track Group I/II/III grades by batch and tank, keeping every grade distinct end to end.

Tank gauging

Record tank volume, temperature, and density for accurate bulk stock and valuation.

Landed cost & Incoterms

Built-in Incoterms and landed-cost capture make cargo economics precise.

Email-to-trade capture

Convert deal recaps and broker emails into draft trades automatically.
