Satellite intelligence for all
Satellite intelligence briefings for trading, commodity tracking, and on-demand imagery. No GIS team or enterprise software required.
Hedge Funds Use Satellite Imagery. You Can Too
Hedge funds watch the physical economy from space. Everyone else finds out later from the news. How Aureum Query and Track close that gap.
Ukraine Power Grid Strikes: Verifying Industrial and Grain Export Shocks
A new United Nations inquiry highlights the scale of attacks on Ukraine's civilian power grid. For physical commodity traders, the critical question is how grid rationing restricts grain elevator throughput and metallurgical output before official export prints arrive.
Saudi Arabia Secures Singapore Oil Storage: Satellite Verification
Saudi Arabia struck a deal to store up to 9 million barrels of crude in Singapore's Jurong Rock Caverns. While underground caverns stay hidden, satellite radar and optical sensors verify the surface tank farms, jetty berths, and anchorage queues that feed them.
Asian LNG Spikes Past $30 on Red Sea Strike: Verifying Pacific Energy Flows
Asian LNG spot prices crossed $30 per MMBtu after a Red Sea tanker attack. Satellite observation reveals how East Asian energy buyers are pivoting toward Pacific supply alternatives.
Verifying Rooftop Solar Expansion With Satellites
Small-scale solar generation has quadrupled over the last decade. Here is how energy traders use satellite data to measure distributed solar capacity before official grid reports print.
Saudi Infrastructure Risks and Distillate Tightness: Satellite Verification
With Brent crude hovering near $105 per barrel and Houthi threats targeting Saudi infrastructure, satellite imagery confirms physical refinery activity, distillate storage buffers, and regional mineral processing shifts.
Verifying Upstream Shale Operators With Spectral Satellites
Public companies represent 2% of US oil and gas operators but 68% of production. Multi-band satellite imagery verifies their well completion activity before monthly prints.
Supertanker Rates Top $1.4M as Route Reshuffling Ties Up Crude Fleets: Satellite Verification
Supertanker rates on the Persian Gulf to East Asia route surpassed $1.4 million per day as trade reshuffling ties up vessel capacity in extended voyages. Satellite observation reveals physical anchorage staging and port bottlenecks.
Verifying Agricultural Plasticulture and Seasonal Energy Inputs With Satellites
Diverging seasonal fuel costs and high-value cropping techniques create distinct physical signals. Satellite spectroscopy reveals agricultural land cover shifts before reports print.
Iranian Tankers Stranded in Gulf Blockade: Satellite Verification
A U.S. naval blockade outside the Strait of Hormuz has stranded at least 50 Iranian crude tankers inside the Persian Gulf. Here is how satellite radar verifies coastal anchorage accumulation.
Verifying Conflict-Driven Agricultural and Energy Shocks With Satellites
When military conflicts break physical infrastructure and block ground updates, multi-sensor satellite imagery quantifies agricultural collapse and energy market tightness before official prints.
Port Congestion and SPR Depletion: Satellite Verification
Global container shipping bottlenecks lock up 12 percent of vessel capacity while US Strategic Petroleum Reserve reserves remain at four-decade lows. Satellite observation verifies physical friction across shipping hubs and tank farms.
Verifying Crude Steel Output With Cross-Sensor Satellites
When global crude steel production shifts, official industry reports lag physical mill operations. Cross-sensor satellite verification reveals storage and output trends before official statistics print.
