Project Report 2.
                                      Crude oil trading-The case of chase petroleum.
Crude oil trading officially began as far back as 1869 and has steadily progressed till date in this technological dispensation and advancement.
During the 17th Century of oil disclosure trading and price fixing has steadily advanced and distribution in to the main stream the capital market has constantly generated the edge for high demand and supply.
As supply and consumption elevate while population continues to increase and the discovery of oil resources limited to specific time, price is the only measure to regulate the crucial commodity.
Price fixing started way back since 1869 to facilitate and regulate crude oil demand and supply and distribution to the ever increasing population.
History is that cheap source of affordable and efficient mobility is fuel, derived from crude oil and consumer’s life style and necessity demands the use of this precious commodity that can never be over looked when traveling, power generation and space travels are few concerns.
One characteristic of consumers is the fact that they look for costless energy to commensurate their meager financial resource as to make life a bit easier.
Yet the social systems and many factors influence the escalating price of crude and the market trends.
Now in the case of crude oil distribution chase petroleum stands the advantage to supply and distribute bulky sea of petroleum products across the Ghanaian market.
Since 1999 the petroleum industries in Ghana wake to the call to align and network with other parties and also the international oil markets to streamline activities, coordinate and corresponds with current market events.
Efficient customer satisfaction is a major priority so as to double and continue in business even within a competitive market.
Facilities and logistics have been regimented to check supply to retail networks who deliver to consumers that has currently amounted to 95% nationwide.
Massive depots created at Tema, Kumasi, Buipe, and Takoradi for storage and distribution. While tankers and other mode of fuel transportation taken care of for efficient supply and distribution under all safety measures so as to protect the environment, human lives and property.
Acquiring fresh tankers and skilled drivers can not be over looked since a lot depends on them for safe delivery of petroleum products and ideally also increase market satisfaction and profit as well.
The high dependency on petroleum products is crucial for nation development when most human activities are linked with it however, it can only be emphasized that the government of the day will have many things to handle but if their able to manage this sector very well then they are on the road to scoring big with the people.
Therefore good administration in handling this sector can easily retain any government of the day in power.
To conclude perhaps in the future there might be possible discovery of newer energy and the mode of use but until then the only source of energy for transportation across globe is surely crude oil.
