Terminal nominations & boil-off
LNG terminal nominations carry boil-off explicitly, so delivered energy and scheduled energy are never silently assumed equal.
Gas & LNG
Natural gas & LNG trading software
SPA and MSPA structures, terminal and regasification rights, delivery windows and diversion economics. Nominations, imbalance cash-out and boil-off are modelled as operational reality, not as adjustments bolted on at month end.

Built for this market
What you get for Natural gas & LNG.
Configured for how this market actually trades — units, specifications, pricing conventions and settlement rules — rather than a generic template with the labels changed.
Gas-day imbalance & cash-out
Imbalance is recorded per gas day and cashed out on the governed price, rather than netted away.
Heating-value conversion
Volume-to-energy conversion on the cargo’s own heating value, so MMBtu is derived rather than assumed.
Take-or-pay & flexibility
Contractual flexibility, diversion and take-or-pay obligations tracked against the master agreement.
Gas derivatives
Hub swaps and options managed on the paper book, linked to the physical position they hedge.
Regas & terminal rights
Capacity and terminal rights held as contractual obligations with utilisation visible.
Before you ask
Questions we get from Natural gas & LNG desks.
- Does Octane model LNG boil-off?
- Yes. Boil-off is carried on the terminal nomination, so the energy scheduled and the energy delivered are separate, reconcilable numbers rather than one assumed figure.
- How is gas imbalance handled?
- Per gas day, with an explicit cash-out at the governed price. Imbalance is never netted across days before settlement, because the days can price very differently.

Every market on one platform.
Desks rarely trade one thing. Each market below runs on its own rulebook inside the same system of record — so a crude cargo and a power block share governance without sharing assumptions.
