I have a contact who is looking to buy 100,000,000 barrels of oil per month for 12 months. I have found a couple of suppliers on this website. What is the best way for me to profit from arranging this deal? Should I act as a middle man or just charge a finders fee for finding the supplier? Urgent response is appreciated :)

Deals of such scale are not conducted over internet and the suppliers that are big enough to carry them out are very hard to reach in generall not speaking about posting on B2B boards, i would assume that the suppliers you found in fact have nothing but an intention to rip you off.

Just FYI there are two types of commodities - those that are hard to sell and those that are hard to buy. Crude oil is certainly the latter.

    Ask supplier quote your a price with comission ,such as 5% or whatever you thought.

  Take your comission from supplier. Of course you need make an agreement with it.

Hey people come on, you are not taking this offer serious? 100.000 barrels of crude oil a month is a quantity that has an effect on the world market. Even with today's Brent prices it is around 4.000.000 USD/month (48.000.000 USD a year)!!! Do you really believe that such a buyer cannot afford a thorough research and price negotiation? Such a buyer cannot have a purchasing department which would seriously take on this thing? You cannot be this naive. This is too poor even for a scam, it is a bad joke.

100 million barrels of oil a month!

Have you done any basic research into the oil industry? What is the production volume of the Texas gulf or the North Sea or Venezuela.

As to alibaba being a good place for oil suppliers and buyers just consider the five big companies that control the oil industry and the national governments who supply oil. The market is not that open to competition.

Should you still wish to continue down this path then make sure you have all the legal angles covered because if this is a true deal then you are looking at a business buying 4 billion dollars of oil a month through you at current oil prices.

Oil transactions requires due diligence due to the amount involved. There are usually many scammers claiming to be buyers and sellers. The first step is to verify both buyer and seller before you decide on which position to take
