We manage the physical risk associated with moving energy.

We also use our technical expertise to manage a global network of energy infrastructure that we deploy to help meet supply and demand flows worldwide. Our trading and logistical expertise is supported by a suite of propriety technology applications that we build and maintain in-house. Our revenues in 2023 were $400 billion.

Our flat, meritocratic organisational structure encourages an entrepreneurial and collaborative approach, with everyone primarily focused on delivering results, and delivering them efficiently and safely.
