Oil Trading - Background
Oil is a raw material extracted from the ground. It is a viscous liquid that consists of hydrogen, sulfur, nitrogen and carbon. The crude oil is drilled out and transported in barrels to different refineries all over the world. Refineries heat the oil in refinery towers. Since every element of the crude oil has a different boiling point, the crude oil can be divided (refined) into different world-driving liquids:
Gas Fuel
Gasoline Diesel fuel
Lubricants Asphalt and wax
The oil industry was founded in 1850 in Pennsylvania. Over the years this industry has been developed in many countries and regions, especially in the Middle East which is now responsible for about 50% of the global oil production.
In 1960, the Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait established the OPEC (Organization for the Petroleum Exporting Countries), which was later joined by other countries. OPEC's purpose is to safeguard the cartel's interests. The OPEC, dominated by Arab countries and having crucial effect on the petroleum production and prices, caused a number of world energy crises making oil prices highly volatile.
Today crude oil and its different products are a part of the world commodities market. Up until recently only the producing countries, refineries, major oil consumers (airlines or petroleum companies) and financial institutions traded oil. In 2002 new trading method was adopted – online trading platform, allowing private traders to execute transactions from home, without visiting the trading floor or even calling the broker.
For those who are not familiar with the oil trading field here are some of the key terms:
BBL – barrel of crude oil = 42 US gallons
CF – cubic feet (feet3), a unit measurement for natural gas
BTU – British thermal unit of energy, used to determine the oil or gas quality when they are burned.
BOE – barrel of oil equivalent. It's a unit of energy received by burning one barrel of crude oil. Oil and gas companies use the BOE in their financial statements as a rather convenient way to combine reserves and production into one measurable unit.
BBL/D – barrels per day. This term measures daily production or consumption. The term can also appear as bpd, bd or b/d.
BOEPD (BOE/D) – barrels of oil equivalent per day. It's generally considered that one barrel of oil and 6000 feet3 hold the same amount of energy.
TOE – ton of oil equivalent of approximately 6.841 BBOE.
Measurements – every term on this list can be defined by a unit of measurement, for example, 25 MBOE means 25 thousand BOE.
