    Six of Incoterms 2020 dominate oil:

    • FOB — buyer takes risk at load port.
    • FAS — alongside ship; rare in oil.
    • CFR — seller pays freight, buyer arranges insurance.
    • CIF — seller pays freight + insurance.
    • DES — delivered ex-ship at destination port.
    • DAP — delivered at place; common for inland tank truck deals.
