Paths
For principals
Suppliers and buyers.
Sovran does not own inventory, charter vessels, or take positions. It structures transactions between verified counterparties, and it stands between them.
For buyers.
Buyers receive verified origin, documented terms, and cargo that arrives. Inspection, finance, freight, and customs are structured under a single mandate and held to it.
State a mandate.
Sectors
Markets covered
Five desks. One network.
01
Agriculture
Soybeans, cocoa, and cashew nuts. Contracts on GAFTA and FOSFA forms where the trade calls for them, delivered to crushers, processors, and manufacturers.
02
Gases
LPG, LNG, and propane. Spot and term structures, delivered to distributors, utilities, and industrial offtakers.
03
Art
Fine art and collectible assets placed privately between verified principals. Title and provenance documented, transactions papered, proceeds settled through the same banking channel as every other desk.
04
Boutique goods
Small-run specialty goods, sourced at origin from the producers themselves.
05
Construction materials
Cement, clinker, steel, and timber delivered to industrial buyers on project timelines.
Capabilities
Origination — Terms — Logistics
What a mandate carries.
Origination
Direct relationships.
Producers, refineries, growers, mills, and makers are approached directly at the mill, the farm gate, or the plant.
Terms
On spec. On time.
Negotiated where it matters: assay, moisture, grade, harvest year, certification, packaging, inspection, and incoterms.
Logistics
Cargo that arrives.
Routing, freight, customs, and documentation under one chain-of-custody. The mandate closes when the buyer's warehouse signs.
Process
Mandate to delivery
A process built for institutional counterparties.
Mandate
Volume, grade, origin, port, payment terms, deadline. What cannot be delivered is declined the same day.
Origination
Counterparties are screened before introduction. Origin, capacity, and authority to sell are established first. Inspection is instructed independently.
Structuring
Contract, inspection, finance, freight, and customs. Both sides sign the same paper.
Delivery
Cargo moves under full chain-of-custody. Inspection certificates travel with the documents.
Compliance
ICC protocols
How every transaction is papered.
KYC, sanctions screening, and origin verification on every counterparty.
UCP 600 · URC 522 · INCOTERMS 2020
Documentary credits under UCP 600, collections under URC 522, delivery terms under Incoterms 2020. Standby credits are issued under ISP98 where the structure calls for one.

Waste to energy
SCWG reactors
Organic waste in. Syngas and clean water out.
Sovran structures waste-to-energy projects around supercritical water gasification. The reactors are series-produced in Europe and operating today. Sovran handles the feedstock contract, the offtake, the finance, and the interface with the permitting authority.
374°C · 22.1 MPa
Above water's critical point, organics gasify in a single stage, without combustion.
Feedstock
Any organic stream.
Municipal sewage sludge, industrial wastewater, food-processing effluent, agricultural residues. Liquids feed directly. Solids enter as a water slurry.
Energy
Syngas on site.
A hydrogen and methane fuel gas, produced where the waste already is, for generation, chemical synthesis, or direct combustion.
Water
Treated, not landfilled.
Chemical oxygen demand falls by more than 98 percent through the reactor. Water is recovered and dissolved minerals are collected separately.
Treatment at an operating reactor.
Liquid organic waste is received at operating installations in Europe. Gate terms follow feedstock composition and volume. Send a composition analysis and a monthly tonnage and terms come back inside a week.
Quote a waste stream.A unit on your own site.
Units are produced in series across a range of daily capacities and delivered to site. Feasibility runs on your own feedstock analysis. Reference installations and the full technical dossier are released to qualified project counterparties under NDA.
Request project terms.
Reactor inquiries
In confidence
Start a project.
For municipalities, industrial waste producers, and project developers.
State the feedstock and the volume. Feasibility, gate terms, or a build proposal comes back from an engineer.
