Incremental value from every barrel, molecule, and megawatt-hour.
Global Petroleum Marketing is a Calgary-based commodity management firm helping producers, end-users, and industrials across the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin capture value they're currently leaving on the table — through audits, risk management, and hands-on trading expertise.
Five ways we protect and grow your netback
We're not commodity resellers. Every engagement starts with your strategy, not ours — then we bring the trading and operational depth to execute on it.
Commodity Audit
A complimentary review of over 30 line items across your current commercial agreements in crude, gas, NGLs, power, and emissions — built to surface improved netbacks.
Energy Management
Pipeline scheduling, trucking and rail coordination, storage oversight, and counterparty exposure management across your logistics and midstream footprint. Front, mid and back office services.
Risk Management
Physical and financial hedging, position and FX reconciliation, and market fundamentals reporting so exposure is measured before it's managed.
Energy Marketing & Trade
Structured deals, physical and financial trading, and portfolio strategy designed around your specific assets — not a generic book.
Advisory
Regulatory reporting, WCSB infrastructure, ETRM integration, A&D support, and TIER emissions compliance guidance for major emitters.
Depth across every base energy commodity
From wellhead to burner-tip, our desk covers the commodities your operation actually touches.
Crude Oil
Full review of commercial agreements from wellhead to market, plus blending and marketing partnerships to expand where your barrels can go.
Natural Gas & NGL
Cash and forward trading across BC, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and the U.S., with deep pipeline knowledge of Westcoast, Alliance, NGTL, and TC Mainline.
Electricity
Procurement strategy for Alberta's power market, plus distributed generation scoping for loads of 1,200 kW and up.
Emissions
TIER compliance strategy, credit sourcing and monetization, and ongoing tracking of Alberta's evolving climate policy.
Trading and marketing experience, put to work for your book.
Global Petroleum Marketing was founded in Calgary in 1994 to help energy companies do one thing well: capture the value already sitting inside their commercial agreements. More than three decades later, that's still the whole mandate.
We work with producers, end-users, petrochemical companies, and logistics operations across the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, offering the kind of physical and financial risk mitigation, logistics handling, analytics, and back-office support usually reserved for in-house trading desks — without the overhead of building one.
As energy companies sharpen their focus on cost efficiency, our job is to help you maximize netbacks and minimize the operational cost of energy, using judgment built from decades on real trading floors.
We don't compete as commodity resellers. We start with your strategy, then bring the experience to execute on it. Our approach
