Part Six – Futures Contracts
Hedging 101 has discussed using different strategies like prebuy and fixed price products to protect against risk. In this post, we want to talk about another strategy – futures contracts. Come with us as we look at how using a financial hub product plus basis can help you navigate some of the risks of the fuel industry.
Chile – An Emerging Energy Market – Part One
Chile is a large energy consumer that is heavily dependent on imports to meet their energy needs. A continuous decline in the amount of oil and gas produced domestically, combined with an increase in demand for LPG have created an emerging energy market that could significantly impact the global propane markets in the coming years.
Soft Skills Matter: Creativity
Creativity is an important part of forming a successful business. Imagination, curiosity, and experimentation help build a creative mindset, and practice makes that mindset strong!
Part Five: Risk Policies
Hedging 101 has defined basic terms and given examples of hedging using different tools. In this post, we take a quick detour to talk about the not so glamorous, but necessary, part of hedging – risk policies.
Peru – A Growing Energy Market – Part Two
Peru’s growing LPG market faces challenges related to production, increasing imports, and transitioning significant portions of its population to cleaner fuels. The country’s growing demand for LPG could impact the global propane markets in the next few years.
Soft Skills Matter: Problem Solving
Every business faces problems and challenges. The ability to understand an issue, analyze possible solutions, then take action to put a plan into motion are all part of problem solving. Join us as we explore this important soft skill.
Peru – A Growing Energy Market – Part One
Peru is a country that is rich in natural resources. The country’s declining oil production has been boosted by its increased NGL production. However, the country’s growing demand for LPG products for cooking, heating, and Autogas have created a growing energy market that could impact the global propane markets in the coming years.
Soft Skills Matter: Communication
At Twin Feathers we believe soft skills can be just as important as hard skills. One of these soft skills is communication. Effective communication is vital to building strong relationships, and strong relationships make the fuel industry work!

Testimonials
From Our Valued Customers.
We enjoy working with Twin Feathers. Great people who have helped our business!
Twin Feathers has taken the burden of the everyday supply logistics off our plate and allowed us to focus on our operations in the critical times of the year. They have educated our team along the way and helped us brainstorm options/risks that fit our business model. Twin Feathers has allowed the Tevis organization to explore opportunities within the supply and hedging arena that we would not have been exposed to without the relationship.
We experience less angst when making a futures purchase.
They not only taught us how to plan and diversify our supply, but also new ways to protect the price. They have been great at negotiating supply deals and putting plans in place to know we will be secure when the market is not. I am confident that if things get tight we will be in a better position than our competitors.
We can’t say enough about the high level of service the entire team provided us. We relied on them and they came through for us over and over. They are complete professionals and a pleasure to do business with.
It has been one of the best decisions that our company has ever made. The Twin Feathers team have looked after our interests since day one, and have executed the plan each year very well.
