About ZB-SEO
ZB-SEO is an independent commodities brokerage structure with a focus on refined petroleum products (EN590, Jet A1), copper cathode and CIF gold. Our role is to connect serious buyers, mandates and sellers while filtering out noise, unrealistic offers and incoherent procedures.
Realistic, bankable & procedure driven
We do not chase volume or headlines. We prioritise clarity, compliance and a procedure-first mindset. If a deal cannot be structured in a realistic and bankable way, we simply do not move forward.
Facilitator between buyer & seller sides
Our job is not to replace banks, lawyers or compliance departments. We facilitate the process: matching expectations, aligning procedures, and helping both sides move from intent to a signed SPA and first lift in a professional manner.
Core Commodities We Facilitate
We mainly operate in refined petroleum, copper cathode and CIF gold, depending on the quality of buyer files and seller mandates.
Refined Petroleum Products
- EN590 (10 ppm) and Jet A1
- CIF or FOB depending on seller capability
- Trial + monthly contracts where realistic
- DLC / SBLC MT760 / MT103 as per offer
Copper Cathode & other metals
- Copper cathode depending on availability and export conditions
- Pricing often aligned with LME quotations
- Possibility of offtake or longer-term supply agreements
CIF Gold (No Upfront Payment)
- CIF delivery to buyer’s refinery
- Payment after final refinery assay (999.9) where applicable
- Instruments may include SBLC MT760, DLC MT700, blocked funds MT799 or bank transfer after assay
- No prepayment schemes, no unrealistic discounts
No miracle offers, no fantasies
If an offer is incoherent, non-verifiable or clearly outside market reality, we do not entertain it. Time, reputation and trust matter more than short-lived promises.
Our Expertise: Sourcing, Energy & Operations
“Sourcing – Energy – Operations” defines our positioning: bringing the right counterparties together, with the right structure, for energy and metals transactions that stand a chance of actually closing.
Sourcing
Analysis of buyer requests (LOI, ICPO or mandate brief), qualification of needs, filtering of seller offers, and verification of basic feasibility before any serious engagement.
Energy
Focus on refined petroleum products and related logistics: volumes, ports, inspection conditions, trial structures, and compatible banking instruments such as DLC, SBLC and MT103.
Operations
Procedural alignment between both sides: Incoterms, port or refinery, timing, documentation flow, inspection, SPA mechanics and first lift expectations.
Procedures & Compliance
Support on the commercial structure of files (LOI, ICPO, KYC, SPA, NCNDA/IMFPA, instrument logic). We do not provide legal, tax or investment advice; we simply help both sides work in a more structured way.
