Crude Oil A tracked procurement-relevant organisation, company, supplier, country, region, port, commodity, regulator, route or similar subject.

Type The kind of entity being tracked, such as Company, Country, Port, Commodity or Regulator.
Commodity
Record status The current record state of the entity, such as active, merged or archived.
Active
Review status The internal editorial review state of the entity record.
Pending
Description
Deliberately NO bare 'oil' alias -- production audit confirmed 'oil' colliding with non-commodity text (e.g. 'Oil Taxation Manual', a UK government guidance document).
Procurement relevance
Importance An analyst-assigned input describing how strategically important the entity is. This is one of the inputs used to calculate Entity Criticality below -- Importance is the judgement call an analyst makes; Entity Criticality is the deterministic score calculated from it.
Strategic
No
Critical supplier
No
Watchlist Marks an entity for closer monitoring when new relevant signals or events mention it.
Not watched
Mentions The number of distinct real collected signals in which the entity has been identified.

REAL
Entity Criticality A deterministic 0-100 score and Tier 1-5 rating of how structurally important this entity is to procurement and supply chains in general -- computed from its importance level, critical-supplier/strategic/watchlist flags and entity type. Country and Region entities are not scored here; they contribute through geographic exposure instead. This is a global assessment, not specific to any one customer's own exposure. TIER 1 · PERIPHERAL 0/100 Whether this entity's criticality inputs have actually been reviewed. A score of 0 can mean either 'assessed and found unimportant' or 'never assessed yet' -- this indicator distinguishes the two so an unassessed entity is never mistaken for a confirmed low-criticality one. UNASSESSED

ENTITY CRITICALITY: 0 — TIER 1, PERIPHERAL Limiting factor: Importance level not set (70 points below its maximum). DATA QUALITY: no curated inputs have been set for this entity yet -- this score reflects the absence of assessment, not a confirmed low-criticality finding.

Clear
Headline The concise title of the canonical procurement event. Type The kind of real-world development identified, such as a supply shortage, contract award, regulatory change or production disruption. Significance Significance estimates the potential procurement impact of the event, including factors such as supply, cost, operations, geography and strategic importance. Confidence Confidence indicates how reliable ProcIntel considers the event assessment based on the quality, quantity and independence of the supporting evidence. It does not measure the event's importance. Lifecycle Lifecycle shows the current state of the development: Breaking is newly detected, Active remains current, Monitoring is being watched for further changes, and Closed is no longer actively developing. Review The internal review status of the event record. It is separate from the real-world lifecycle of the underlying development. Articles The number of source articles linked to this canonical event. Several articles may describe the same underlying development. Evidence strength A plain-language assessment of how much independent evidence supports the Developing Intelligence thread.
