Trading

When you are looking for a supplier, service counts. We believe service is a serious business. That is why we provide full value for our customers by offering a range of customer solutions including competitive pricing, logistical support and contract structure. We focus on the delivery on time.

The team concentrates on trade and supply of middle distillates

Jet Fuel [A1/TS-1/Kerosene] and Diesel Fuel [10ppm, 50ppm, 5.000ppm] represent ACLA´s core business.

ACLA takes also opportunities for crude oil, condensate and other refined oil products as well as LNG / LPG.

Our regional focus is Europe (ARA, NWE, MED) and the ASIA-PACIFIC region.

Cargoes are in large quantities of 30K MT – 120K MT, thereby optimizing on economies of scale at favourable freight prices and by signing up for term volumes.

ACLA is capable of sourcing and supplying a variety of different products under different delivery mechanisms - ITT, FOB, CIF.

Jet fuel

We provide aviation fuel to all sectors of the aviation industry. This specific product enables us to focus on our relationships with our partners and our customers, to understand their specific requirements, and to seek out innovative and flexible solutions to meet those requirements.

Jet fuel (Jet A-1 type aviation fuel, also called JP-1A) is used globally in the turbine engines (jet engines, turboprops) in civil aviation. This is a carefully refined, light petroleum. The fuel type is kerosene. Jet A-1 has a flash point higher than 38 °C and a freezing point of –47 °C. Jet A is a similar kerosene fuel type that is normally available only in the US.

TS-1 is a jet fuel made to Russian standard GOST 10227 for enhanced cold-weather performance. It has somewhat higher volatility than Jet A-1 (flash point is 28 °C (82 °F) minimum). It has a very low freezing point, below −50° C (−58 °F).

Diesel

Diesel is a middle distillate and a predominantly mineral fuel.

We provide many quality grades of diesel fuel. Each is produced and held up to the highest standards for you and your vehicle. In addition, a premium diesel fuel is for those who want the benefits of detergency and improved lubricity.

In the European Union the quality requirements for diesel fuel are defined in DIN EN 590. The climate zone a fuel is marketed in also plays a role, as cold weather can lead to paraffin precipitation in diesel fuels. For this reason, its composition varies in different countries. For example, in Germany a specific “winter diesel” is sold between November and February, but this is not usually mentioned at filling stations.

LNG

ACLA is a participant in the LNG (liquefied natural gas) market

ACLA´s LNG team manages the physical cargoes, financial hedging and chartering of LNG carriers.

With access to liquification and regasification capacity in Europe and in SE Asia, the ACLA team has extensive knowledge and experience of the global LNG markets optimising supply for power plants and gas retail portfolios.

LPG

ACLA entered the LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) market through a long-term export capacity agreement from terminal facilities and now has an operational trading platform and is delivering cargoes to its customers. Thanks to our long-term cooperation with trusted suppliers, we are able to bring cost-effective solutions and value to our customers.

ACLA´s LPG team manages the physical cargoes, financial hedging and chartering of LNG carriers. In a dynamic global trading environment, we make practical and effective use of our global partnerships to ensure our customers receive consistently reliable, on-time deliveries while remaining dedicated to operational standards and adhering to strict risk management processes. In all our physical operations, we seek to collaborate with partners who share our commitment to high international standards of operation.
