Illustrative terms & cash assumptions
Real Gulf Coast diesel prices; hypothetical customer and protection. 30,000 gallons purchased evenly, February 7–May 2, 2022. Starting cash: $4,800. Revenue: $7.20 per gallon; other operating costs: $2.15 per gallon. Fuel includes a 12¢ local basis and 8¢ discount; no surcharge recovery.
One $21,000 loan payment falls on the selected date. Cash shown is available before that obligation; a shortfall still needs funding. Protection costs $3,600 upfront on February 6; the $3.88 trigger and $1/gal cap apply to the window average. The $21,406 example payout arrives May 9. Outcomes depend on prices, terms and timing; this is not a measured default reduction. EIA price data ↗
A payment problem can start
with an operating bill.
Rising costs leave less cash for the next obligation. Uneven receipts make the timing harder. For customers buying diesel, fuel protection is one way to address that pressure before a price spike.
