Compliance Is Infrastructure
Before any cargo moves, counterparties audit the operator. Our governance framework is built to be examined.
Counterparty Screening
KYC and sanctions screening apply to every storage inquiry. We work with counterparties who expect to be verified.

The Role of the Operator
Why Storage Operators Matter
Every barrel of oil is produced on one schedule, shipped on a second, refined on a third and sold on a fourth. Independent storage is the infrastructure that makes those four schedules compatible — and the custodian that keeps ownership provable while they disagree.
Storage terminals absorb the mismatches — in parcel size, timing and price structure — between every other stage of the chain.
Physical liquidity
Tankage converts cargo-size parcels into refinery-size flows and back — the physical equivalent of market depth.
Neutral custody
An independent operator holds product without holding a view on it. Trading positions stay confidential and unconflicted.
Market optionality
Storage turns time into a tradable dimension — carry structures, blending margins and supply security all run through tanks.
Infrastructure
Built to Institutional Standards
Storage and transfer systems engineered for product integrity — from crude tankage to segregated products systems and metered pipeline interfaces.

How Our Process Works
From first inquiry to first cargo — five steps, each with defined outputs. No pressure tactics; counterparty screening runs both ways.
STEP 1
Inquiry
Requirement profile submitted — service, product, volume, tenor. No commitment created.
STEP 2
Screening
KYC and sanctions screening both ways; NDA executed for specifications exchange.
STEP 3
Commercial Terms
Structure agreed — term, spot or throughput — with service levels and measurement basis.
STEP 4
Agreement & Setup
Storage agreement executed; release protocol and reporting cadence configured.
STEP 5
First Receipt
Nomination, tank allocation and opening custody measurement — capacity is live.
Operating Discipline
The Life of a Parcel in Custody
What actually happens to product between receipt and release — as a custody lifecycle, and as a physical route through the terminal.
Two views of the same discipline: the custody lifecycle applied to every parcel, and the physical route it travels. Full detail in the Operations Framework.

Frequently Asked Questions
Direct Answers
Is Crude Tankers III AS a broker or a trading company?+
Neither. Crude Tankers III AS (the trading name of Crude Tankers III AS) is an independent terminal operator and storage infrastructure provider. The company does not trade petroleum products and holds no commodity positions against its customers.
How do I obtain storage capacity or pricing?+
Submit a requirement profile via the inquiry form — service, product, volume, tenor. After counterparty screening, indicative terms follow by negotiation. We do not publish rate cards; no institutional operator does.
Can my surveyor verify my product?+
Yes. Surveyors appointed by cargo interests may witness gauging, sampling and quantity calculations at every custody point, and may seal and receive retained samples under the agreed protocol.
Which products do you store?+
Crude oil and refined petroleum products — white and black grades crude oil, gasoline, diesel, gasoil, jet fuel, marine gas oil, fuel oil, blend components and sustainable fuels. Provide grade documentation with your inquiry and we confirm service fit during screening.
Where are your terminals located?+
Terminal specifications and locations are provided to qualified counterparties on request, following screening and NDA — consistent with our security and commercial confidentiality practice.
What does onboarding involve?+
Mutual due diligence: we verify identity, ownership and sanctions status; you receive our legal entity details, documentation pack and — under NDA — terminal specifications. See the full onboarding process.
