BTR Invest in the Forefront of Global Markets

We conduct business in more than 120 countries, our team have forged solid relationships with an extensive network of customers and suppliers – national and international oil companies, refiners, traders and brokers, distributors and end users – on every continent.

As a result, they have access to diversified sources of supply and substantial resources to supplement BTR Invest equity production.

Every day, BTR Invest teams deal in crude oil, refined products, derivatives and liquid markets.

Our primary aim is to meet own needs which include:

• Monetization of crude oil production.
• Supply to refineries secured on the best terms available.
• Import and export of products to match supply to demand in local markets.

• Thorough understanding of energy fundamentals and the specific characteristics of each market.
• The capacity to analyze events in real time.
• A worldwide network for maximum responsiveness.
• On the strength of this know-how, BTR Invest has consolidated its commercial positions in the key markets of Europe and North America. We have also established a strong base in fast-growing Asian markets.
