ION releases RightAngle S25 for navigating the evolving liquid hydrocarbon market

LONDON, March 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ION Commodities, a leading global provider of energy and commodity management solutions, has released the latest version of RightAngle, its flagship commodities trading and risk management solution (CTRM) for crude oil, refined products, and natural gas liquids (NGLs). RightAngle S25 features enhanced risk management capabilities, streamlined transaction management, improved system performance, and advanced security features, equipping firms to navigate volatile markets with greater efficiency.

Businesses operating in the liquid hydrocarbon markets are facing increased price volatility and supply chain complexity. To maximize profits while mitigating risk, these businesses require transparency across the value chain coupled with real-time insights. RightAngle S25's improved analytics give traders and risk managers greater visibility into P&L drivers, breaking down the basis and non-basis portions of the price for more informed trading and hedging decisions. These enhanced commodity valuation methods allow firms to assess sensitivity to both physical and intended markets, delivering a more accurate forecast of future exposures and enabling traders to hedge proactively.

For midstream asset operators, RightAngle S25 also introduces a new module within its Asset Transaction Management (ATM), ION's dedicated solution for this segment. This module allows storage operators to project daily inventories, perform what-if scenario analyses, and respond proactively to market disruptions. ATM is optimized for precise inventory tracking and financial calculations to support evolving market demands. Offering real-time visibility and scenario modeling, ATM empowers firms to optimize assets, mitigate supply chain issues, and enhance operational decision-making.

The feature-rich RightAngle S25 also uses a robust cloud infrastructure, offering enhanced data security, scalability, and operational efficiency and providing businesses with overall cost savings. ION offers Azure Gold Services, allowing companies using Microsoft Azure – whether ION-managed or not – to use native cloud services that optimize performance and improve system resilience.

RightAngle S25 has strengthened security with OpenID Connect, enabling seamless single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA) through business' preferred identity providers. RightAngle S25 also introduces enhanced data archiving for storing and retrieving transactional accounting records securely and in compliance with business' data retention policies.

Sunil Biswas, Chief Executive Officer at ION Corporates, said: "At ION, we continuously prioritize innovation to meet the evolving needs of our community, empowering them to stay ahead in a changing market. With RightAngle S25, we're giving businesses the tools to manage complexity, streamline operations, and ultimately make more informed decisions.
