Petrosilicon CEO Riaz Lawyer said “Our primary objective is to take physical petroleum trading to the web, making the process efficient, real-time, and collaborative. We recognized that the Internet’s ability to distribute information securely and globally, in real-time, could enhance what had previously been a labor-intensive, disjointed, and inefficient process. We are building a comprehensive communications gateway on the Web for petroleum trading.” More from www.petrosilicon.com.
