Sustainability

Procurement decisions carry environmental and social weight.

We recognise that procurement decisions have environmental and social effects, including in energy supply. What follows is what we actually do — not what would read well.

In practice

Our operations and client work

Small office footprint

We keep our own operational footprint deliberately modest.

Electronic documentation

Offer packs, contracts and compliance files are handled digitally.

Travel only where it counts

Unnecessary travel is avoided; inspection travel is not.

Recognised inspection

We encourage counterparties to use recognised inspection houses.

Lawful shipping

Vessels and routes must be lawful and identifiable.

Transparent payment routes

Payment structures must be explicable end to end.

Limits

What we do not claim

We do not claim certified carbon-neutral status, and we do not publish an emissions inventory. Where a transaction involves crude oil or other hydrocarbons, we treat climate and shipping-risk disclosure as a matter for the producing and lifting parties.

Our role is narrower and stated plainly: to ensure the commercial file is complete and that the parties can be identified.
