For e.g., Intercontinental Exchange trading platform provides live quotes, real time alerts and position on top of daily updates and internal spreadsheets.

NW Corporation is in the process of digitalizing more processes and operations.

Strategic Partnerships

A strong network of partners is fundamental to the success of oil-trading companies. Besides being an employee-centric organisation, NW Corporation’s partner-centricity speaks volume which leads to its outstanding performance despite being a relatively young player in an extremely closed sector. It has earned the trust of leading oil majors in the region and internationally such as Shell and PTT as its counter-parties; as well as niche players.

NW Corporation’s success is a direct result of its ability to become an invaluable partner inthe entire supply chain.

Dynamic Strategic Planning

NW Corporation constantly monitors the global economy and business environment, does regular scenario-planning so to respond to dynamic external variables in a well-planned manner.

This resulted in a business turnover of more than US$200million annually and the ability to edge out its competition.

Business Model & Innovations Expansion Of Full-suite Services

NW Corporation intends to go beyond pure trading to establishing itself as a full-fledged oil company, providing end-to-end comprehensive suite of bespoke supply chain solutions to meet the needs of their partners and customers.

Within 2021, the company will lease storage tanks as part of its next strategy to expand from pure trading into one that includes more comprehensive services such as breaking bulk, storage and blending. This will increase the company trading margin as well as position the company as a full fledged oil company.

Investing In Logistics Capabilities

NWC is planning to acquire assets in the form of oil tankers which will be use both by the company as well as charter to other companies.
