Revenue optimization Breakthroughs:

โ€ข ADNOC Group: Scale at $2.01B peak revenue (Brent, -$2.50/MMBtu) generating $25.3M per journey

Volume-Profit Synergies:

โ€ข ADNOC: 76-89 journeys generating $1.4B-$2.2B combined profits (Argentina captures 40-50%)

The Differentiation Advantage:

Key Takeaways: Argentina's FOB-Long Success Demands Counterparty-Specific Discount Strategies:

โ†’Deep discounts (-$2.50-$3.50) for ADNOC's volume dominance

โ†’ Shallow discounts (-$0.50-$1.00) for Shell's premium returns

โ†’ Moderate discounts for EnBW's stable base loadResult: 15-25% portfolio value increases through data-driven precision targeting.
