Tank to Tank (TTT) FOB – 9 Procedures [#Subject to Availability#]
1. TTT – TSR – FOB. Submission of TSR (Tank Storage Receipt) by the buyer. FOB transaction procedure for petroleum products, tank-to-tank within the port.
A key feature of this procedure is that the supplier – before showing the original documents for his goods to the buyer – requests the buyer to provide TSR, the rent receipts for the tanks that the buyer intends to use to pump the goods.
Risks: the buyer pays for the storage tank before he sees the goods. Consequently, there is a risk that the supplier does not have the goods and the buyer has already rented and paid for the storage tank.
SAMPLE TEXT OF THE PROCEDURE:
- Seller confirms procedure and pricing to the buyer directly.
- Buyer sends irrevocable company purchase order (ICPO), and tank storage agreement (TSA) to Seller.
- After acceptance of the ICPO, and a positive due diligence (DD), on the buyer, the refinery issues a commercial invoice (CI) for the availability quantity in the seller storage tanks.
- Buyer signs CI and returns it to Seller for seller’s approval.
- The buyer will contact their oil storage facility and obtain a TSR valid for at least 6 days and give a copy of the TSR to the supplier for verification.
- Seller provided (below) proof of product (POP) documents to the buyer:
A. AUTHORIZATION TO PHYSICALLY VERIFY PRODUCT (ATV).
B. THE UNCONDITIONAL DIP TEST AUTHORISATION (UDTA), TO BE ENDORSED BY BUYER’S TANK FARM.
C. PRODUCT PASSPORT.
D. COMMITMENT AND GUARANTEE LETTER TO SUPPLY.
E. AUTHORIZATION TO SELL AND COLLECT (ATSC).
F. FRESH SGS REPORT, LESS THAN 48 (forty-eight) HOURS OLD.
G. TANK STORAGE RECEIPT (TSR). - Buyer verifies SGS report and has the option to elect to book retest with SGS (at buyer’s expense) in seller’s storage tank. Buyer will provide Q&Q reports to the seller free of charge.
- Within 24 (twenty-four) hours, buyer makes 100 % payment by MT103 wire transfer, seller changes title of ownership to the buyer at the same time of receiving full payment.
- Subsequently monthly shipment continues as per terms and conditions of the CI, and extension of transaction by issuing 12 (twelve) months contract to buyer for proceeding. Payments by MT 103.
- Seller issues 12 (twelve) months contract to be signed with all parties and allocation license.
Buyer Credential Verification Policy:

2. TTT – ATV – FOB. Submission of ATV (Authorisation to verify) by the buyer. FOB transaction procedure for petroleum products, tank-to-tank within the port.
For suppliers of oil products on FOB terms there are two important points that are critical for them to receive from the buyer – confirmation of solvency and confirmation of the availability of tanks at the buyer for pumping the purchased resource. Suppliers try to structure the procedure in such a way that the customer first pays for and leases onshore tanks for storage of oil products, and only then suppliers agree to show the original documents for the goods. Since if the customer has paid for the tanks, then in addition to confirming the availability of oil storage tanks, the supplier also indirectly confirms the availability of money, as the customer has made a payment for the tanks.
In the classic, previous procedure – the supplier asks for a copy of the tank receipt (TSR). But most customers don’t want to give a receipt for the tanks. Therefore a similar procedure has appeared, where the supplier does not ask for a copy of the TSR, but for authorisation to inspect the customer’s tanks – ATV (Authorisation to verify). But in fact it is the same, because no oil storage facility will not allow the supplier to inspect the tanks if the customer has not rented the tanks beforehand, because if the customer has not rented a tank, there is nothing to inspect.
Risk: The buyer pays for the storage facility before seeing the goods. There is a risk that the supplier does not have the goods and the buyer has already rented and paid for the storage facility.
SAMPLE TEXT OF THE PROCEDURE:
- The buyer accepts seller working procedure and issues ICPO with bank-to-bank BCL to the seller.
- The Seller shall issue an CI (Commercial invoice) an ICC Warning letter and it shall bear the signatures of both parties, indicating their acknowledgment and acceptance of its contents.
- The buyer sends the TSA agreement to the seller and ATV (Authorisation to verify) issued on the oil tank storage letterhead to the seller authorising physical inspection of the tanks by the seller.
- The seller signs the IMFPA agreements with the intermediaries.
- The seller sends it along with the PPOP documents to the buyer for evaluation:
- Product Availability Statement.

- The buyer provides signed IPA (Injection Programming Agreement) with his tank company to engage injection Programming.
- The seller provides buyer with ATV (Physical Verification) with Product Passport.
- With the result with the dip test accompanied by a newly issued SGS report affirming the quantity and quality of the product, the operation ends.
- The buyer will ensure that 100% of the total product price is paid and received by the seller’s bank through its bank within 24 hours The Seller confirms the Payment and gives the title of ownership of the product to the buyer.
- The seller pays the commissions to intermediaries in 48 hours after receiving the payment from the buyer.

3. TTT – Extend DIP & Pay FOB. Purchase through DIP test. FOB transaction procedure with petroleum products, from tank to tank inside the port.
A key feature of this procedure is that the supplier gives the buyer the opportunity to DIP test the goods by taking samples from the seller’s tank before paying for the goods.
Risk: It is very common for vendors to impose on buyers, before conducting a DIP test, to pay for an extension of the vendor’s tank rental for 2-3 days, for the duration of the test. It is also common for the seller to ask the buyer to certify the invitation to the DIP test at the buyer’s oil storage facility in order to make sure that the buyer has its own paid oil storage facilities for the future receipt of goods, in turn, oil storage facilities generally charge the buyer a fee for signing the DIP test.
Fraudulent schemes: Fraudsters forge documents and offer non-existent goods, and then offer to pay for the extension of their tank farm until the DIP test. After the customer pays for 2-3 days extension of the seller’s tanks, the scammers disappear and it turns out that you paid a non-existent tank. Check the seller’s depots carefully to see if they are real. In the port of Rotterdam alone there is an official blacklist of more than 700 fake non-existent tank farms.
SAMPLE TEXT OF THE PROCEDURE:
- Buyer accepts seller-working procedure and issues ICPO addressed to the seller refinery
- Seller issues commercial invoice (CI), buyer signs and returns back commercial invoice.
- Seller provides buyer with the below listed PPOP.
A. Tank storage Reservoir Receipt (TSRR)
B. Product Passport Quality and Quantity Analytical Report
C. Authority to sell and collect (ATSC)
D. Statement of Product availability
E. Certificate of Product Origin
F. DTA - Upon receipt of the endorse DTA buyer extend seller tank For 3 days and upon confirmation of buyer Extended tank for three days, seller conduct fresh SGS (A DAY OLD) and present the result to buyer for Verification, buyer confirm SGS report.
- Buyer confirm SGS and release payment of the product by MT 103 Seller changes the title of Ownership.
- Seller pay commissions to all intermediaries involved as per IMFPA signed between Seller and Beneficiary Paymaster
Buyer Credential Verification Policy:
To ensure a secure and reliable transaction process, the financial capability of buyers intending to purchase fuels will be thoroughly verified.
-

-
Joint Ventures (JV): If the buyer is importing fuels in partnership with another financially robust entity, both parties must submit their credentials for verification.

Disclaimer : We hereby declare that we do not accept or source any fuel or petroleum products from Russia, Iran, or any other sanctioned country.
4. TTT – IPA FOB . Signing of IPA (Injection Programming Agreement) by the buyer’s oil storage facility. FOB transaction procedure with oil products, from tank to tank inside the port.
The key feature of this procedure is that the supplier obliges the seller’s oil storage facility to sign an injection programming agreement before showing the full set of documents for the goods.
Risks: In this procedure, the customer actually signs a daily schedule of when and how much fuel will be injected without seeing the product documents themselves. To sign such a document, the oil storage facility basically charges the customer for future storage of 6-10 days. In other words, the customer first has to pay for the future rent of his oil storage facility before he can see the actual documents for the goods.
Fraud: When a buyer signs a consent to inject without checking the paperwork for the product, they are effectively giving permission to fill their tanks with the product on a certain date. Sometimes it happens that the seller injects substandard goods. And the buyer becomes in a desperate situation because back pumping and cleaning of tanks is so expensive that he has to negotiate with the seller and at best take this product at a discount. There are still situations when the seller conducts the injection of goods that originate and station country. The buyer is also looking for ways out of the situation because he did not check the documents for the goods before signing the IPA.
SAMPLE TEXT OF THE PROCEDURE:
- Buyer accepts seller’s working procedure and issues ICPO to the End seller via Seller’s representative.
- Seller issues a commercial invoice and ICC Warning letter and Buyer signs and returns commercial invoice and ICC Warning letter on the due date along with Buyer TSA.
- The Seller issues the following PPOP to the buyer for evaluation:
- Statement of Product Availability
- IPA ( Injection Programming Agreement ).
- Letter of Guarantee
Upon receipt of the above PPOP Documents, the buyer provides signed IPA (Injection Programming Agreement) with his tank company to engage in injection Programming.
- Seller provides the buyer with an Injection program,
- Fresh SGS,
- Certificate Of Origin.
- ATSC (Authority to Sell and Collect)
- Tank Storage Receipt (TSR)
- Injection Report, and ATV (Physical Verification) with Unconditional DTA for Dip Test in the seller tank for product reconfirmation.
- After successful Dip Test, injection commence from seller tank to buyer tank
- Buyer makes 100% payment by MT103 TT wire transfer for the total product and Seller pays commission to all intermediaries involved in the transaction within 24 hours after confirmation of the buyer’s payment.
- Seller issues draft SPA to the buyer to review for R&E monthly deliveries.
- Buyer reviews and approves the SPA and issues SBLC/IRDLC irrevocable, non-transferable, auto revolving for 12 months shipment value, documentary letter of credit for length of contract and for each lift per schedule. Buyer pays after Dip Test by MT103 Wire Transfer one each monthly quantity.
- The subsequent delivery shall commence according to the terms and conditions of the contract.
- Seller pays commissions to all intermediaries as per IMFPA/NCNDA 24 hours after receiving payment from the buyer
5. There are also several variations of this procedure where, together with the IPA, the supplier asks the customer to sign a TTTIA (Tank to Tank Injection Agreement) or NOR (Notice of Readiness) in his storage facility. But these are essentially the same thing, the same processes are just named differently. Here are some examples of procedures where TTTIA and NOR documents are used instead of IPA.
Transaction procedure with signing of TTTIA (Tank to Tank Injection Agreement) documents:
- Buyer accepts seller working procedure and issue ICPO addressed to the seller refinery.
- Seller issues commercial invoice (CI), Buyer signs and returns back commercial invoice and tank storage agreement (TSA).

- (NCNDA/IMFPA) will be signed, buyer within 24 hours after successful dip test in seller tanks provide tank storage receipt (TSR) seller proceed for Tank to Tank injection and provide buyer with the injection report of the product into buyer tanks.
- Buyer make payment for total cost of product injected into buyer tanks via MT103,
- Seller transfer title ownership to buyer with all exportation documents required of buyer for the transaction.
- Upon conclusion of first lift transaction seller pays all intermediaries involved in the Transaction and proceeds with the signing of contract with Buyer.

6. TTT – Co Payment Extension – FOB. Co-payment by buyer and seller of buyer’s tanks. FOB transaction procedure for petroleum products, tank-to-tank within the port.
This procedure arose for two reasons. First. When suppliers bring their resource, for example, to Rotterdam, they discharge it into a common port pipeline system, from which it is pumped to a specific onshore tank. To save time and money, suppliers do not rent tanks at the port, but want to pump oil directly into the buyer’s tanks. Accordingly, they are ready to take over the first 2-3 days of the lease of the customer’s tank while the injection is in progress.
The second reason for this procedure is that due to the proliferation of fake sellers, suppliers in order to prove to the buyer that they are real resource holders, are willing to assume part of the cost of the client to rent tanks.
Risks: Since the supplier bears part of the cost of tank rental, the supplier checks the storage facilities offered by the buyer and chooses the one he likes and is willing to pay for. Very often suppliers impose their trusted storage tanks on their customers, with which the buyers have no previous experience.
Fraud: We have witnessed several times when a supplier imposed his tank farm on a customer, made the first payment to the tank farm, and then the customer paid his part of the tank farm rent. After that the tank farm turned out to be non-existent, and the payments about the alleged first payment to the supplier turned out to be fake. Be careful with oil depots, check the real availability of tanks. There are a lot of fraudsters who charge for the lease of non-existent oil storage tanks in the port.
SAMPLE TEXT OF THE PROCEDURE:
- Buyer issues ICPO and Company Registration Certificate or any I.D. With TSA for seller’s approval.
- Seller issue Draft Commercial Invoice, Buyer signs and returns to Seller.
- Seller present product SGS Report to Buyer’s Tank farm only to verify and confirm product specification, upon confirmation of SGS report by Buyer tank farm storage company, Seller lease and pays the buyer’s tank for 3 days and Buyer do pay his Tank Farm Company for 3 days after his Tank Farm Company has received the payment from Seller Company.

A. Authority to Sell & Collect (ATSC)
B. Letter of Commitment to Supply
C. Product Authentication Certificate
D. ATV – Authorization For Physical Verification. ATV (Authorization For Physical
Verification) is to be signed by buyer’s tank farm and Endorsed. - Seller provides buyer with COMPLETE FULL POP Documents:
A. Fresh SGS Report less than 48 hours
B. Dip Test Authorization-Unconditional
C. Injection Report
D. Tank Storage Receipt with GPS Coordinates
E. Tank Farm Bar-code Information.
F. Registration Certificate & Export License Copy
G. Endorsed Injection Schedule by the buyer & buyer Tank Farm
H. Irrevocable Commitment to Supply for Spot and 12 months Contract Injection Schedule signed by buyer & buyer’s tank farm - Buyer conducts Dip-Test in seller’s tank, via SGS on buyer’s cost seller inject the fuel I to buyer’s tank and Buyer makes payment based on Q&Q by MT103 wire transfer / TT according to the final Commercial Invoice.

7. TTT – POF – FOB. Confirmation of customer’s solvency via SWIFT. FOB transaction procedure with oil products, from tank to tank inside the port.
There are suppliers who only care about confirmation of the customer’s solvency, but the seller wants this confirmation in the most reliable way that currently exists – in the form of a SWIFT message from the buyer’s bank via MT 199/799.
In order for a customer to give proof of solvency via SWIFT MT199 or MT799, the customer needs to have the full amount collected in their current accounts. Most banks not only require that the money is available before sending SWIFT, but also that this money “lay” on the accounts before this 3-5 days. The bank will also charge a % commission for issuing this SWIFT. Often on such large transactions buyers use credit facilities. If the buyer wants to issue proof of solvency at the expense of the existing credit line, the bank’s commission for issuing such SWIFT will be even higher.
Risk: The buyer collects in his accounts the full amount needed for the purchase. The buyer actually pulls money out of circulation and freezes it for a few days to confirm his solvency, but in return he has no guarantee that the seller actually has the resource available right now.
SAMPLE TEXT OF THE PROCEDURE:
- Buyer issues LOI and sends along with CIS/KYC documentation.
- Seller issues FCO and sends along with KYC documentation.
- Buyer returns signed FCO and issues ICPO and Charter Party Agreement (CPA)

But since there are a lot of dishonest intermediaries and outright fraudsters on the market, be careful. In each, even the most good and convenient procedure of oil products transaction there are “bottlenecks” where you can be cheated. For this reason, we have described in each of the procedures where there may be risks and what aspects of the procedure can be exploited by fraudsters.
