Operational risk occurs when suppliers
or markets cause imbalances by either losing production
or transportation thus causing unnecessary penalties.
The financial impact of these potential interruptions
in commodity supply could be detrimental if not resolved
in a well-informed and timely fashion. Mobius has a
seasoned team of physical commodity experts who work
with our clients to help minimize operational risk.

the following:
- Nominations and confirmations for physical supply
at the production point, transportation line, facility
delivery point, and utility (local distribution company)
required for delivery to requested receipt and delivery
point(s).
- Evaluate opportunities for transportation and storage
acquisition.
- Manage client's physical portfolio position.
- Negotiate and administer supply contracts, production,
processing and transportation, as well as pipeline operation
and balance agreements.
- Reconcile month-ending imbalances to reduce unnecessary
costs.
- Analyze historical usage data for forecasting and
budgeting purposes.
- Resolve discrepancies with suppliers and/or market
trading partners.

with commodity purchases, transportation services, storage
