I agree Kurly, but I cannot see why with a bit of luck all of the opportunities in front of us have not been secured. As I have mentioned before I have watched and invested in QFI for many years and up to a point I do understand diesel, especially marine diesel which is why I have watched this, and for the industry that I work in the potential of the BioMSAR is so great that I just want to see it take off. I would be a gamechanger indeed. Modern tech and the fortunes being spent to create green shipping will no doubt at some point come up with an answer, or could we be invested in it, we will find out, but that will not cure the problem of the many hundreds of thousands of marine diesel equipped vessels that are floating around the world as I type polluting the planet, from the largest of supertankers to small diesel runabouts. Many of these larger vessels are and will be around for many years to come, QFI have an answer.

As for tar sands. Mining this stuff has always been an issue of contention due to the amount of pollution created just to get it out of the ground, as with offshore oil, the building of the rigs, the shipping of the oil, the tar sands project that QFI are involved in could change all of this as it is simply taken from the surface in most cases and creates very little pollution in the process and if this stuff can be burnt to produce electricity, hey ho, houses can be heated, cars, trains, factories, you name it, quite an incredible future. But one the world is screaming out for at this time. No more coal powered power stations, even that would be a massive breakthrough. But why is it or has it taken so long. In some ways this is a disruptive technology that will change the way we obtain power for the better. It will also remove from our landscape all of the jobs, technology and infrastructure involved in coal, offshore power generation, yes even windfarms that look amazing but are ugly and may one day be unnecessary, rig platforms and all of the shipping that needs to be in place to make that function.

And is there enough tar sands to keep all of this functioning, yes but it has always had the problem of cost which it seems can now be resolved. there is so much power held in tar sands that it would take decades to run out of. Also I guess scrubbers or versions of them must be used in power stations as with carbon capture which now seems to be coming of age.

Just one signature .......

OK lets see who knows, Should that be a B - T - or a W

BTW just joined the 1,000,000 club.

Pick No. 4: A MASSIVE Disrupter in a $1.5 Trillion Industry
This next company is not a small cap stock. It’s just the opposite… it’s a large cap. But it is little-known… and, more importantly, it’s cheap.

Copenhagen, Denmark-based A.P. Møller-Mærsk A/S (OTC: AMKBY) is a $37 billion market cap integrated transport and logistics company operating worldwide.

Commonly referred to as Maersk, the company has 80,000 employees and operations in more than 130 countries.

It’s the MAJOR player in the maritime shipping industry, which is currently valued at $1.5 trillion.

If there is an industry that could really benefit from a blockchain makeover… it’s the shipping industry.

The way things are now, just ONE shipment can generate up to 200 documents. The cost of processing and administering these documents is a significant expense.

Blockchain could erase all of this unnecessary paperwork… and Maersk is leading the charge to make this a reality. Maersk – the leading container ship operator based on the number of owned and chartered ships – would also be the biggest beneficiary.

Maersk recently inked a deal with IBM to fully digitize and blockchain-enable Maersk’s operations.

A blockchain digital shipping ledger can be viewed by EVERYONE involved… yet nobody can tamper with it. So instead of filling out a stack of documents, a shipping clerk could simply glance at the product’s blockchain code and confirm that everything is in order.

You can’t underestimate how huge this deal could be for its bottom line…

Maersk had $153 million in processing expenses last year. With blockchain, that number could come down to nearly ZERO.

Looking at the big picture… blockchain could save shipping carriers $38 billion a year.

Maersk is on the vanguard of this technological shift. It will have a big first-mover advantage. The reduction in expenses will go right to the bottom line.

Speaking of the bottom line, this company is already solidly profitable with $539 million in net income last year. And Maersk, now benefiting from reductions in capital spending and cost-saving measures (due to COVID-19), is seeing a big uptick in business.

In the first nine months of this year, gross profits were $5.5 billion, an increase of 30%. Free cash flow was $3 billion, up a whopping 94%. The company just initiated a $1.6 billion share buyback program.

The upside here for the stock is HUGE… It currently trades for less than $11 a share.

Diesel bug is contamination of diesel fuel by microbes such as bacteria and fungi.[1]

Water can get into diesel fuel as a result of condensation, rainwater penetration or adsorption from the air — modern biodiesel is especially hygroscopic. The presence of water then encourages microbial growth which either occurs at the interface between the oil and water or on the tank walls, depending on whether the microbes need oxygen. Species which may grow in this way include:[2]

bacteria — clostridium; desulfotomaculum; desulfovibrio; flavobacterium; hydrogenomonas; pseudomonas; sarcina
fungi — aspergillus; candida; fusarium; hormoconis resinae
Fuel companies agree that if left untreated fuel will remain reliable for just 6–12 months. After which fuel contamination (such as the diesel bug) begins to appear. Most industrial engine manufacturers now recommend a fuel conditioning programme to ensure the reliability of fuel.

Happy to be corrected, but I have always thought of it as QuadRiseFuels which is the sign of a muppet but I am sure you realise to what I was referring.

As a matter of pure interest just what are the specs of the Cummins engine they are working with. I guess I could research it but always get it wrong. Or is there a site I can go to.

What’s with the de ramping remark, cannot for the life of me see where that came from Indigo.

Why would I do that if I am holding shares, get real. I have never been involved in a chat room like this before, I do not wish to make it my profession and I am learning as I go along. What we seem to have is a bunch of old soldiers getting worn out from continually regurgitating the same old rubbish.

I don’t mind being called a muppet either despite its connotations of being akin to an idiot, I have been called worse than that through most of my life and have always smiled. Like most of you I have had to divert from my daily routine of running a business that would make most of you envious, to try to bring a bit of cheer to the investors here.

I guess all if not most invested here have their stories to tell and interestingly why they would invest in a company that adds water to tar plus a bit of magic dust with the hope of becoming millionaires, and remember I am one.

I wish you all well and in all sincerity do not wish any bad luck or misfortune to any investors, whether they consider me a muppet or not.

Can we all just concentrate on keeping ahead of the crowd and getting QRF over the line, as for you Idigo I have watched your posts for several years now and have respect for you, who knows one day we will get to meet. Everybody posting at the moment are doing so to learn or on the other hand teach, we all need to increase our knowledge and who knows by helping each other we could well be ahead of the crowd when the next bounce happens, I sincerely hope so.

If anybody should profit from what could well be an incredible few years it would make sense to be those that have supported the QRF dream and board. I will keep posting my muppet posts with the hope that at least they create discussion, I certainly learn from them and now have a very good insight into what I invested in all of this years ago.

I sincerely wish you all well. ..... Muppet ??

Apologies DPS, you an I are about the same age and certainly did not want to upset you or anybody else on here and I also am a big supporter of QRF and have been for years so hope you don't think otherwise.

But just took a look at this which is interesting as wondered just how much Glycerine there could be available, quite a bit it seems...

Typical plant sources include soybeans or palm. Animal-derived tallow is another source. Approximately 950,000 tons per year are produced in the United States and Europe; 350,000 tons of glycerol were produced per year in the United States alone from 2000 to 2004.[11] The EU directive 2003/30/EC set a requirement that 5.75% of petroleum fuels are to be replaced with biofuel sources across all member states by 2010. It was projected in 2006 that by the year 2020, production would be six times more than demand, creating an excess of glycerol. Glycerol from triglycerides is produced on a large scale, but the crude product is of variable quality, with a low selling price of as low as 2-5 U.S. cents per kilogram in 2011.[12] It can be purified, but the process is expensive. Some glycerol is burned for energy, but its heat value is low.[13] Crude glycerol from the hydrolysis of triglycerides can be purified by treatment with activated carbon to remove organic impurities, alkali to remove unreacted glycerol esters, and ion exchange to remove salts. High purity glycerol (> 99.5%) is obtained by multi-step distillation; a vacuum chamber is necessary due to its high boiling point (290 °C).[7]

Reminds me of an old friend of mine who created thousands of tonnes of manure from his chicken sheds that he never new what to do with, disposal cost a fortune until one day they found it could be burned in power stations and suddenly it had a value.

And DP I have been into QRF before you were born, or certainly in nappies, so have been through all of the ups and downs just I do not normally shout about it. Have watched the chat on here for far too long, the BS, those that believe in the MSAR tech, this who have tried to destroy the company, the moaners about management and above all those that criticise when others wish to have an opinion.

Get real my friend and enjoy the ride, there are times when we all need to express ourselves and if getting others to believe in our destination does not appeal to you and getting positive discussion underway instead of constant moans happens to be against your principals go join those on Robin Hood.

So as of today with all of the possibilities on the table QRF is worth a paltry £35,000,000 or thereabouts.

If we get five positive outcomes from the testing that is going on now, if we get one I have no doubt this product will pass all of the hurdles before it and become the fuel of choice on dozens if not more projects around the world for many years to come, and reasonably quickly due to global warming pressures, just how much will the company be worth.

In the USA at the moment any company with promise has a value off the chart and our tar sands project will put our QRF in front of millions of at present unaware investors over there, the share price will not only blow the doors off but demolish the barn

Say the company attains a value of a mere five billion dollars, or three and a half billion U.K. pounds, a pittance in US company valuations, that would give us a share price of around three pounds. Correct me if I am wrong?

What is to stop QRF being bought out if MSC, or any of the projects for that matter, announce successful trials and take up the roll out of MSAR throughout its fleet which would be the springboard into an incredible opportunity for all LTH here.

No way would I want to be forced to take a paltry 50p or less having hung in here for so many years, what is to stop a buy out by say BP or any other large conglomerate or some billionaire somewhere in the world, and there are hundreds of potential candidates, and taking away our just rewards.

Of course The trials with MSC etc. could fail and the shares would be worth a pittance but let’s look on the upside ??

Who would make the decision to sell. A great many shares are owned on here by institutions who would be happy to take a good profit and get on with their lives but small individual investors like us would as always be s*** on from a great height. If there is a takeover attempt how many shares would somebody have to buy to take over control and force us to hand over our shares at far below their potential.

Shouldn't be a problem Indigo, just make sure wherever it is has a landing pad or is near to an airport, I could always use the Jet I guess. How about Monaco.

jeeeeze thought I would get away with that but just looked again and it's going to be another blue on blue day - me hopes.

Where are we going to hold the £1.00 party, could just be out of lockdown when that happens so need to begin the planning :-)

Near to Norwich for me....

Morning all, Just noticed the largish drop in the SP this morning on what looks like quite a few small sells, amazing how a few small sells can shift the market and then as I am all sure you are aware the debacle or brilliance behind the GameStop share moves over the past few days. If we were to all get together maybe on a different private platform and decided to sell say 1000 shares apiece over an hour or two it would cause a significant drop in the QR share price. We could all then fill our boots on cheap shares before the expected moonshot. Just a thought...... and no I am not Elon Musk :-)

Did not realise the options that were hanging above their heads, great news.

Just had this sent to me.

http://www.tradearabia.com/news/IND_377963.html

Ahhhh online schooling. :-)

Mind you a bit late for my age.

Well you just did Tidetime. But agree I should have not used the with, so whether with a with or without a with my point is the same.

As for risk, a few years back there was very little risk in BP until the unexpected happened and the Deepwater Horizon blew up. How many billions did that cost the company/shareholders. You never know what is around the corner.

Yep I bought a bunch the other day at just over 2p which brought my average to 3.4p so now in profit. The gamble is to get in now as when these hit say 50p which they nearly did when Maersk was in play a while back I will have made roughly 13 times my investment. (Far more happening now than then.) Enough to make me smile. If a wait another couple of weeks the same investment when the shares have to be bought at say 25 p will only have doubled. So get in early and retire young. That's indeed is the gamble.

At the moment one most certainly worth taking, just do not invest money you cannot afford to lose.

Do I think something is brewing, of course. Strangely we have several, if not more options going forwards that are getting pretty close to the barn door, they will not all get through at the same time but over the next six months many will, but the problem with new news is it only happens to be new news once, we get a spike and then the SP will fall back, the problems with one trick pony's, and I have invested in far too many of them in my time is that I have always tended to loose my money.

What is great about Quadrise is that they now have several irons in the fire, one has allowed us a bit of positive news, and that news is just the beginning, every time MSC/QR give us a bit more positive news on this the SP will jump. But with all of the other areas that we now have development work underway tomorrow could see an announcement on KSA or our new Bio MSAR, the shares will jump again as outsiders keep seeing the news. Its all about news and potential. This will keep the share price rising until suddenly we will begin the process of making money. I just hope this business is not sold off to some conglomerate for a stupid price, I have not sat here for years to see that happening.

And the thing with this fuel is that now it is the right fuel for many options that in the past have relied on using up waste from refineries as best possible, sod the environment. (now we also have tar sands :-) )There are only so many roads that need tarmac. This fuel ticks so many boxes and the reason, I feel that it has been ignored for so long is that big corporations have been able to make big bucks by getting away with pollution that suddenly is not possible for much longer in a changing world. Once the masses realise just how ships and power stations etc have been hiding the facts the sooner these big corporations will have to find an alternative to what they are at present using to power their engines with.

So that's my take on this. Lots of good news in the pipeline ( sorry for the pun) and who knows where these shares could end up.

Never seen quite so many buys against sells assuming what we are seeing is correct.

Interesting to see where we end up by tonight.

The futures bright the futures MSAR.

Never could quite work out the buy and sell figures shown on this site. But as with today we can see the blues, potentially buys and the reds, sells, but there does appear to be many more shares being bought than are being sold at this low price.

Sorry to seem like a dumb arse but can somebody try to explain this what appears to be a big discrepancy.

Quite incredible to see the blues on the board. If that is anything to go by I would guess 4 p plus by close tonight. We have a tranche of news due and as we know few leaks and would not be surprised now that the board have opened Pandora’s box that more positive updates on new areas of development will follow and the progress on each one will create a big percentage bounce in the SP as the announcements come. What we do not want are long periods of silence. The board need to keep the news coming. And we are certainly not a one trick pony any longer, the different uses that MSAR can be put to are are awesome and every one has such huge potential.

Buying at this level, well think when we are at 20 p. And yes I can dream, if the share price suddenly rises a mere 15% say on news from KSA I get my total investment back in one day. Get in early, the futures bright, the futures MSAR.

A lot of optimism but with so much misery around why not ??
