ISO tank
Liquid chemicals in 20 ft tank containers. Dedicated or last-cargo-certified depending on the grade.
Auto gasoline at the top of the column, petroleum coke at the bottom, and polypropylene film downstream of both. Every grade is quoted against its technical data sheet, and each shipment moves through the Caspian ports.
Ten product families, ordered from the lightest draw at the top of the column to the heaviest residue at the bottom. Open any row for its grades and data sheet.
No family in this band.
Two published figures on each plate, both taken from the producer's sheet. The full table sits one click behind.
Each figure is quoted as issued, with its sheet number beside it. A grade without a sheet in hand shows On confirmation. We don't publish a plausible guess, because a buyer's inspector holds us to every number on this page.

Units follow the sheet: sulphur in mass % (ppm in brackets), flash point in °C, density at the sheet's reference temperature.
Nothing matches that search.
The end uses the producer names for its own grades, from An-2 aircraft to greaseproof paper.
Cargo leaves the Caspian basin through four ports. Which one a lot moves on depends on the grade, congestion and the destination lane, and it is agreed per shipment.
Per-port draft, berth count and load rate are not published. A buyer sizes a vessel against a load rate, so publishing an unconfirmed one is worse than publishing nothing.
Liquid chemicals in 20 ft tank containers. Dedicated or last-cargo-certified depending on the grade.
Handysize and supramax for full cargoes. Where tonnage justifies it this is the cheapest freight per tonne by a wide margin.
20 ft and 40 ft boxes, bagged or lined for bulk. Preferred where schedule reliability matters more than freight rate.
One-tonne FIBCs, four-loop, with liner where the grade is hygroscopic. Handles on the same gear at both ends.
Bagged or palletised cargo loaded piece by piece. The default for big bags and 50 kg sacks where no container service serves the lane.
These are the published rules, not our own terms, which is why this table can be published while the port figures cannot.

Six steps, in the order they happen. We price once the first two are fixed.
Name the grade, then check it against its data sheet in the matrix. If there is no sheet yet, ask for it.
An Incoterm, a load port and a destination. Those three, plus tonnage, are what an offer is priced on.
A written offer against that specification and those terms, with packaging and the shipment window stated.
The certificate of analysis is issued per shipment by the load-port inspector, not by us.
Risk passes as the agreed Incoterm says. The bill of lading is issued on loading.

If yours isn't here, WhatsApp is the fastest line to the desk.
Message the deskFrom the technical data sheet issued for each grade: a TŞ or TDS number, printed beside every figure it supports. Nothing is rounded, restated or averaged, and each value is quoted as the sheet gives it.
Because their sheet is not yet in hand. A blank figure reads as unfinished; a plausible-looking one is a liability, because an inspector will hold us to it at the jetty. Ask for the grade and we will send the sheet with the offer.
FOB, CFR, CIF, DAP and EXW, under Incoterms 2020. The table in Logistics shows who carries carriage, insurance and clearance under each, and where risk passes.
Turkmenbashi, Aktau and Baku on the Caspian, and Jebel Ali in the Gulf. The port is agreed per shipment, not fixed.
The load-port inspector, per shipment, against the agreed specification. We don't issue it ourselves.
The product and grade, the tonnage, an Incoterm, the destination port, the packaging and the shipment window. The enquiry form below asks for exactly these, in that order.
Give us a grade, an Incoterm and a destination and we can price it. If the specification is still open, say so, and we'll come back with what the origin can actually hold.
