PETROLUBRICANTES S.A. Supplier Risk: 45.81% Dependence on COMERCIAL ROSHFRANS and Transactional Relationship Markers

Concentration Exposure

In the available record, PETROLUBRICANTES S.A.'s single-supplier dependence on COMERCIAL ROSHFRANS is 45.81%. That is a material concentration: more than 45% of the measured supplier dependence rests with one counterparty.

The reading does not cross the 80% threshold that would trigger an extreme single-point-of-failure warning, and it is not below the 30% range where the record would support a resilience-based comfort position. The accurate characterization is concentrated dependence requiring active mitigation.

Operationally, disruption at COMERCIAL ROSHFRANS would create a serious procurement challenge for PETROLUBRICANTES S.A. However, the available data does not support a conclusion that the company's entire supply chain would collapse in that scenario.

Relationship Profile: Transactional, Not Strategic

The relationship markers do not point to a strategic partnership. The cooperation duration is classified as Trial, and the loyalty score is reported as 0.16.

Taken together, these signals are more consistent with a transactional relationship than a strategic partnership. The record does not currently show the depth, stability, or commitment markers that would support a strategic label.

This matters because a meaningful share of dependence is attached to a counterparty that has not yet demonstrated strategic-level loyalty or an established relationship record.

Due Diligence Implications

• Confirm the basis of the 45.81% dependence indicator—whether it is calculated from value, volume, transaction count, or another measure—before converting it into a specific mitigation plan.
• Treat COMERCIAL ROSHFRANS as a high-priority counterparty for continuity planning, but do not assume its failure would automatically halt PETROLUBRICANTES S.A. without additional operational evidence.
• Investigate why the relationship remains classified as Trial despite meaningful dependence. A critical input source with limited loyalty can be a stronger risk signal than the concentration ratio alone.
• Use this record as a screening prompt: request alternate supplier options, delivery performance history, contractual terms, and a realistic qualification timeline for backup sources.
