Due Diligence in Oil & Gas: How AFETOP Protects Your Interests
The oil and gas industry is unfortunately not immune to fraudulent offers and unreliable intermediaries. AFETOP Petroleum places due diligence at the core of every deal, ensuring you only engage with legitimate, creditworthy counterparties.
What Our Due Diligence Covers
- Counterparty Verification: We check company registration, trading history, corporate structure, and beneficial ownership.
- Product & Title Verification: We confirm that the product exists and that the seller has the legal right to sell it. This includes reviewing tank receipts, bills of lading, and refinery agreements.
- Legal & Regulatory Screening: We screen against sanctions lists, anti‑money laundering (AML) regulations, and anti‑corruption laws.
- Financial Health Assessment: Where possible, we review audited financial statements or bank references.
Why It Pays to Be Thorough
We have witnessed countless deals collapse because buyers failed to verify the seller’s ability to perform. A small investment in due diligence can save millions in lost deposits, demurrage, and legal fees. At AFETOP, we do this upfront, before any commitment is made.
Our Due Diligence Process
- Initial document request and review.
- Third‑party database checks.
- Site visit or independent agent verification (when feasible).
