- The oil is Class 3 PG III, so it cannot travel as ordinary cargo — the UN drum and DGD must be in place before booking
- We quote both FOB and CIF/DDP terms; insurance is always recommended on Class 3 cargo
- Every drum is nitrogen-blanketed and sealed, and the outer carton is marked with the hazard diamond and handling symbols
