01 / Overview

One group. Two disciplines.

Casti operates as a single group across two complementary practices: upstream and downstream advisory work out of Accra, and petroleum trading and logistics engineering out of London. The two branches share methodology, people and a single commercial point of contact — so clients never have to choose between local fluency and global reach.

Offshore operations Ref. 003 — Operations IMG / 03

We build the infrastructure beneath energy deals — the models, the permits, the cargoes, the contracts — so that operators can focus on what they drill and ship.

Founded as a regional consultancy and extended into a full trading desk, Casti today sits at the intersection of technical advisory and physical commodity flows. The firm serves independent operators, state-owned enterprises, refiners, traders and logistics providers across three continents.

Our proposition is simple: every brief is owned by a senior principal, every opinion is backed by independent data, and every engagement closes with an implementation — not a deck.

02 / Capabilities

What we actually do.

Six capability areas, delivered from two offices. Every engagement combines at least two of them — that's the point of running consulting and trading under one roof.

01 / Advisory

Upstream & field development consulting

Reservoir strategy, well planning reviews, field development plans and independent technical due diligence for license transactions.

02 / Commercial

Collateral & contract services

Collateral management, inspection coordination, contract structuring and joint-venture compliance for West African operators.

03 / Regulatory

Local content & permitting

Ghana Petroleum Commission liaison, local content plans, environmental permits and downstream licensing support.

04 / Trading

Petroleum supply & offtake

Physical supply of gasoline, gasoil, jet and fuel oil from ARA and Mediterranean hubs to West African buyers on spot and term basis.

05 / Logistics

Logistics & chartering advisory

Voyage optimisation, bunker strategy, terminal and storage selection, and trade-finance structuring for cargo lifters.

06 / Markets

Market intelligence & pricing

Price-risk management frameworks, pricing benchmarks and weekly market notes for portfolios with West African exposure.
