FSiix Resources sources and trades light sweet crude oil streams from West African and Middle Eastern loading terminals, characterised by high API gravity, low sulphur content, and a paraffinic composition that yields strongly toward gasoline, naphtha, and middle distillates on refining. Every cargo is independently assayed and inspected prior to loading, priced on a Dated Brent or regional benchmark plus differential, and delivered FOB or CIF against buyer-nominated tonnage in parcel sizes from part-cargo to full VLCC.
FSiix's crude oil desk aggregates cargoes from producing fields and export terminals across West Africa and the Middle East, matching buyers to grades on the basis of API gravity, sulphur content, and yield structure rather than name alone. Our typical slate sits in the light sweet category — API gravity in the low-to-mid 30s to low 40s, sulphur content under 0.5% — which refiners favour for its low corrosiveness, straightforward desalting, and high yield of gasoline and naphtha on atmospheric distillation.
Every parcel moves with a full cargo assay covering density, sulphur, pour point, TAN, water and sediment (BS&W), and salt content, confirmed by an independent inspection agency (SGS, Intertek, or equivalent) at load port. Pricing is set against Dated Brent or a regional marker plus an agreed differential, with delivery on FOB or CIF terms to suit the buyer's freight arrangement.
FSiix's crude oil desk manages sourcing, quality verification, and vessel nomination end to end, from producer or terminal aggregation through to bill-of-lading.
Crude is sourced directly from producers and export terminal operators, with FSiix confirming lifting programmes, allocation, and title against the underlying sale and purchase agreement before nomination.
Each parcel is assayed for API gravity, sulphur, pour point, TAN, BS&W, and salt content, with an independent inspection agency verifying quantity and quality at the load port ahead of Bill of Lading issuance.
Vessels are nominated against agreed laycans, with FSiix coordinating port agency, demurrage terms, and documentation so cargo moves from terminal tank to buyer-nominated vessel without delay.
FSiix's light sweet crude serves refiners, petrochemical processors, and traders worldwide — anywhere a low-sulphur, high-yield feedstock is specified.
Independent inspection agency verification of quantity and quality at load port, backed by a full assay covering API, sulphur, pour point, TAN, and BS&W on every parcel.
Relationships across West African and Middle Eastern producers and terminals give buyers access to a range of light sweet grades rather than dependence on a single field or loading programme.
FOB or CIF delivery, part-cargo to full VLCC parcel sizes, and coordinated laycan and demurrage management let buyers structure liftings around their own refinery or storage schedule.
Global crude oil trade continues to be shaped by benchmark pricing (Dated Brent, WTI, and regional markers), OPEC+ production policy, and freight and insurance costs, with light sweet grades commanding a premium over heavier, sourer streams for their higher-value product yield.
Crude oil pricing is set against Dated Brent or a regional marker plus a negotiated differential that reflects grade quality, loading terminal, and prevailing freight rates, so we don't publish a static reference price here — anything printed on a page would be stale within the hour.
