Hi, does anyone know what kind of questions are usually asked at a technical interview for trading & shipping at firms like Bp, Shell, etc.
Also, what resources can I use to prepare.
Thank you!

It depends. Are you doing a US interview? Can provide some insight.
Sorry for the lack of clarity. I am doing a UK interview for a summer internship
Is this after the hirevue?
Would love to hear your insight - doing a US interview!
Explain the risks associated with delivering commodity X from place A to place B
Thank you for your response? Do you have a list of questions like that!
I would really appreciate it
This is my experience from the US technical round with BP/Shell so might not be that helpful for you. But hope it provides some perspective:
1. (Based on the demand/supply numbers they provide) how would the gas sotrage level change month to month
2. What are some geopolitical implication concern for a power plant deal
There can be other pricing questions too.
Thanks, can you suggest some resources that you used for prep?
I had physical commodity trading experience before so I actually learned most of what I knew on the job. I did pick up a few books I had read before so here are some of them:
Trading Natural Gas by Sturm, Natural Gas on Coursera, and articles about gas and power here and there on EIA.
Could you walk through how you would answer these two questions? Also bump for resources.
