At Edima, we are constantly developing in order to meet new challenges, while evolving our team and facilities to ensure a competitive advantage.

Edima’s goal is to understand, respect, and sustain the health of the environment in which it operates and to always safeguard those resources needed by the local communities.

Our versatile teams source products that match our customers’ needs through our vast array of connections in the international oil, gas, and petrochemical markets. Our specialist sub-teams, consistently share cross-sector information to maximize information flow, thereby keeping all traders and specialists aware of current macro policies and the state of the global environment. Our strategies are custom-made to meet our customer’s requirements by minimizing risk, optimizing their operations, and improving performance. We provide dedicated support ensuring that our customers have the most efficient operational strategies in place, coupled with our supply of top-of-the-line products to minimize risk and achieve consistency for our customers and for our business.

Our team operates within a sophisticated internal risk control domain in a commercial operations module, which is fundamental for the trading business and pivotal from an operational safety and competitiveness standpoint. The world of energy is ever-growing and evolving, and we’re not just talking about non-sustainable trends. With the consistent introduction of varying revenue streams and distribution channels, the opportunity for profit grows but so does the complexity. At Edima, we take pride in navigating between the producer and consumer.

Edima engages in the refining of crude oil thereby partaking in complex processing agreements and off-taking transactions through strategically placed partners.

In order to successfully carry out its trading activities, Edima uses situation-specific financing tools such as trade financing, storage-based lending and corporate sourcing. We have broad experience in structuring simple and complex short-term and long-term financing solutions. In doing so, Edima benefits from the growing trust and relationship with various international banks and funds as well as from its own capitalisation.

Risk management is the identification, evaluation, and prioritisation of risks. It is accompanied by coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor, and control the probability or impact of events or to maximize the realization of opportunities. Risk management in oil must identify , evaluate, and prioritise risks such as Economic risk, Political risk and Environmental risk.

Our risk management policy is centered upon identifying these risks and implementing established proven risk minimization processes via sophisticated and independent internal controls aimed at immediately minimizing the potential risk to our customers and to our business. Our team is continuously monitoring, identifying, assessing and counteracting potential risks in the sector, in close cooperation with external advisors and banking institutions. 

Our shipping department is responsible for the transportation of our products, including crude oil and lubricants, and operates with a safety procedural approach. Inspection checks are constantly performed to ensure these procedures are met and followed with the utmost precision. Edima works with our partners to determine the precise strategy of products that best fit our clients’ requirements. Realizing that the energy sector is an ever-changing frontier, we are at the forefront with our partners and with state-of-the-art technology.

Nevertheless, we are primarily physical traders. We buy, we sell, we load, transport, store, blend, and deliver crude oil and refined products internationally on a variety of vessels and with delivery terms ranging from CIF, DES, and DAP while operating in strict accordance with international safety rules and internationally acceptable contractual terms. We provide immediate solutions that make our customers’ businesses faster, simpler, and more efficient. We focus on the midstream and downstream sectors that include trading, transportation, storage, refining, and selling of these products all over the world.
