Get Financial Proof
The selling companies on their own part must be convinced that the buyer is genuine through financial proof mostly through bank account statement or the buying company’s trading history. Due to the large capital involved in the crude oil business, financial proof of capability to carry out the trade is a necessity in locating a reputable seller and equally a genuine buyer.
Ensure you verify financial proof if you want to venture into the crude oil trade.
A seller should have a huge capital likewise the buyer because it is a two-way thing and business is only successful with ready capital. This kind of business does not deal with debts to avoid losses.
For a buyer, poor capital on the side of the seller shows he or she is most likely to be fake because a genuine seller cannot run low financial account since being steady in the business, a seller’s pocket must be fat.
For the seller, a buyer with low capital can be viewed as unserious as the business involves a huge capital especially due to some irregularities or backroom dealings during shipment.
Either way, the business is not for the poor or businessmen with less cash. It is for individuals that can bear the loss and still stand financially stable to do further tradings.
Verification of Allocation
As noted earlier, the NNPC is the most reliable seller of crude oil in Nigeria but a willing buyer that cannot meet the strict terms and conditions of the corporation can simply buy from bigger companies with an allocation from them.
However, there are lots of fake sellers and the only way to identify and differentiate a fake seller from the real ones is by asking for their allocation details from NNPC for verification. With this, a fake seller is more likely to pull out from the business.
There are genuine sellers that do not have allocations but they are rare to find. It’s not advisable for a beginner to trade with such. To be on the safer side, it is of necessity to request allocation details for verification. Besides, all sellers with an allocation from NNPC have their details published on news outlets yearly.
Product Type
Needless to note, crude oil trade requires expertise. A buyer looking for a genuine seller must be able to know the type of crude he or she is about to buy when presented with a sample or have expert resource persons that can identify the sample as genuine.

The BLCO is, without doubt, the best crude product in the world because of its low refining cost due to low sulphur content. No wonder many crude oil buyers are interested in Nigeria’s crude oil.
