What we do

Practical work, clear evidence.

This site introduces our businesses and publishes practical guides for teams assessing energy and infrastructure opportunities. Selected Experience explains work and supporting records, with confidential names and terms withheld. Field Notes recount decisions through historical photographs, contract, shipment and project records.

We explain what each record establishes and what it cannot establish. Historical records do not confirm current supply rights, approvals, contracts or financing.

PentaBay is not an exchange, financial institution, law firm, regulator or live-price service. Our content supports initial review and does not guarantee the suitability or outcome of an investment, tender or trade.

Our businesses

Four areas of work.

Each business has its own page with the scope we review, the information we need and an enquiry form.

01

Iraqi bitumen

PentaBay coordinates drum-packed Iraqi bitumen as an intermediary trade seller through a Dubai-based seller network. The producer, contracting party, grade, origin evidence and delivery terms are confirmed for each proposal. We do not present ourselves as a refinery or its exclusive representative.

02

LNG supply

PentaBay is the selling party that signs the LNG SPA with the buyer, for a single cargo or term supply. We review the quantity, receiving terminal, delivery basis and timing; supply is confirmed for each request and becomes binding only in a signed SPA.

How we work

Who we write and work for.

Our readers and counterparts are EPC, equipment, development, trading and finance teams assessing energy and infrastructure projects in the Middle East and Africa. We start from the decision they need to make and the risks of missing information.

We prioritize original sources closest to a claim: laws, regulators, official tenders, contracts, statistics and directly held records. Facts, general principles, our own analysis and matters that need specialist advice are kept distinct.

Confidential names, terms, signatures and personal information are withheld. Records from different transactions are not presented as one continuous event, and advertisers do not influence topics, sources or conclusions.
