About Us

Built on Relationships. Powered by Markets.

Stratex Oil is a commodity trading and supply company connecting producers, refiners, and end-users across the energy markets we cover.

Our Story

A trading house rooted in physical oil.

Stratex Oil & Gas (the trading name of Universal Capital Solutions LLC, d/b/a Stratex Oil) was started by people who traded physical oil long before there was a firm to trade it through. Counterparties come back for two reasons: cargoes arrive on time, and the paperwork holds up under scrutiny.

We are rooted in physical oil. Every activity we take on connects back to moving real barrels between real counterparties.

"We solve supply problems. Oil is abundant in some places and short in others. Our job is to close that gap on schedule and on spec."

Our core market is the U.S. Gulf Coast. Trade corridors extend into the Caribbean & Central America, West Africa, Mediterranean & North Africa, and Asia-Pacific.

What Defines Us

Four disciplines. One operating standard.

Market Intelligence

Decisions rest on real-time data and years spent across the barrel. We form a view, then trade it.

Operations In-House

Chartering, storage, documentation, and quality. We run the logistics chain ourselves. That is how a paper trade turns into a delivered cargo.

Relationships

Reputation is the only durable asset in this business. Ours is built cargo by cargo with producers, refiners, and shipowners.

Risk Discipline

Credit, market, and operational exposure are tracked daily. Discipline is the difference between longevity and luck.
