Vetting Tiers

Every participant on Petroforum carries a visible vetting tier. Your tier signals your credibility to Petroforum when your submission is reviewed in the compatibility ranking. The higher your tier, the more weight your submission carries in the matching engine and the more qualified the matches you receive.

Tiers T3 through T5 are backed by Business Partner Vetting, an independent document review service that confirms identity, corporate structure, banking relationships, financials, beneficial ownership, and real assets. Each step adds a layer of independently verifiable credibility. No tier is required to enter the matching pool, but higher tiers open more doors.
