Trading and Exporting Incoterms Explained
Incoterms (international commercial terms) are a kind of international shorthand system to make sure all your responsibilities, costs and associated risks of exporting products are clearly allocated, agreed and recorded. They're used worldwide, usually with a contract or other form of sales agreement for any goods you export - and they should be recorded on your export invoices.
Important Refineries of the World
These refineries are not only significant due to their size but also because of their technological advancements and contributions to the global energy market. They are crucial in maintaining a consistent supply of refined products to satisfy global energy demands.
Comprehensive Analysis of Bitumen and Industry Standards

Are Roads Asphalt or Bitumen?
Asphalt is composed of bitumen, sand, gravel, and other materials. The bitumen acts as a binding agent to hold the other components together and provide strength to the asphalt surface. The sand and gravel provide additional strength and stability to the asphalt surface. Other materials such as polymers and resins can also be added to improve the performance of the asphalt.
Constituent factors of bitumen analysis
Bitumen analysis refers to a set of tests and parameters that are performed to evaluate the physical and chemical properties of bitumens. These parameters mainly include the following:
