01 · Diesel
EN 590 10 ppm ultra-low sulphur diesel for distributors, fleets and industrial operators.
Diesel represents the majority of enquiries we handle. Requirements range from single-cargo spot movements to structured monthly programmes supporting distribution networks, fleet operations and continuous industrial consumption. We work from the buyer's specification, discharge port and delivery structure, then review whether the requirement can be credibly matched against available supply.

Typical buyers
- Fuel distributors and wholesalers

02 · Jet A-1
Aviation turbine fuel for distributors, FBOs, operators and aviation organisations.
Aviation fuel carries the least tolerance for ambiguity. Jet A-1 enquiries are handled against a defined quality standard and a named destination. We confirm the governing standard, the discharge point and the buyer's onward handling arrangements before any supply discussion proceeds, because none of the downstream commercial work is meaningful without them.

Typical buyers
- Aviation fuel distributors
- Fixed base operators (FBOs)
- Airline and charter operators
- Government and humanitarian aviation organisations
03 · D6 Virgin Fuel Oil
High-grade virgin fuel oil for power generation, marine and industrial use.
Fuel oil is judged on viscosity, sulphur and handling temperature before anything else, because those determine whether the receiving terminal and the end plant can take it at all. We confirm the destination's storage, heating and discharge capability alongside the specification, since a grade that cannot be discharged is not supply.
- Indicative availability
- 100,000–1,000,000 MT per month
- Delivery basis
- FOB · CIF · Vessel takeover
- Inspection & documentation

Representative specification
D6 high-grade virgin fuel oil
| Specific gravity | 0.96–0.98 |
|---|---|
| Viscosity at 50°C | 180 cSt max |
| Flash point | 66°C min |
| Pour point | 24°C max |
| Sulphur content | 3.5% max |
| Water content | 1.0% max |
Supplier-stated grade limits, shown for orientation. Actual figures for any parcel are established by the certificate of quality and independent analysis at load.
Typical buyers
- Power generation operators
- Marine bunker suppliers
- Industrial and process heat users
- Terminal operators and resellers
04 · Crude Oil
Brent, WTI and Bonny Light reference grades for refiners and term offtakers.
Crude enquiries are assessed against the buyer's refining configuration as much as against price. API gravity, sulphur and pour point determine whether a grade is workable for a given refinery, and the loading terminal determines whether the movement is executable. Both are established before commercial terms are discussed.
- Indicative availability
- Brent and WTI 500,000–2,000,000 barrels per month; Bonny Light subject to terminal allocation
- Delivery basis
- FOB Sullom Voe (Brent) · FOB Cushing (WTI) · FOB Bonny Terminal (Bonny Light) · CIF
- Inspection & documentation
- Platts · Argus · SGS · Intertek
Availability is supplier-stated and indicative, not a commitment to supply. Inspection and documentation standards are those applicable to the product; Mittrex itself holds no accreditation and issues no certification.
Typical buyers
- Refiners and processing operations
- Trading houses and term offtakers
- Storage and blending operators

05 · Scope
A defined range, not an open catalogue.
The four products above are what we can supply. We do not advertise grades we cannot source, and we do not take an enquiry forward on the assumption that supply can be found later.
If your requirement sits outside this range, send it anyway. It will be reviewed on the same basis, and you will get a direct answer at the review stage rather than an open-ended conversation.
What determines viability
Grade against the destination market's standard, and whether the discharge port can receive the cargo size.
What we confirm before offering
Specification, quantity, discharge port, incoterm and delivery window. In writing, from the buyer.
What we decline
Requirements we cannot credibly serve, and counterparties who will not complete the qualification workflow.
Where delivery ends
At the agreed discharge port or terminal. Onward inland distribution is the buyer's arrangement.
Commercial Process
A defined sequence, followed in order.
- 01
Buyer Requirement
Product, specification, quantity, destination, delivery structure and timeline are established in writing.
- 02
Supply Review
The requirement is reviewed against supply relationships that can realistically serve it.
- 03
Counterparty Qualification
Both sides are qualified before commercial terms are exchanged.
- 04
Commercial Terms
Pricing basis, payment structure, inspection and documentation are agreed and documented.
- 05
Execution
Contract is executed and the movement is coordinated through to delivery.
Send the specification. We will tell you if it is workable.
Product, grade, quantity, destination port or airport, incoterm and delivery window. That is enough for us to give you a direct answer.
