On track for a Massive opportunity - Just to make it a bit clearer for Newbies22 Jan 2021 13:06
1) Tomco and Valkor are 50:50 Partners called Greenfield
2) They approached Petroteq and Quadrise to do a deal to prove that the processes being utilised at Petroteq's existing oil sands plant at Asphalt Ridge, Utah (the "POSP") can be scaled up to enable commercial production of 10,000 barrels of oil per day from a single site..( This was based on a report commissioned by Valkor)
3) Proof of commerciality though was subject to the successful completion of the proposed upgrade works to the POSP (Now done and in trial. Progress and results on track)
4) Greenfield is also working with Quadrise, regarding a trial of Quadrise's MSAR® technology at the POSP as well as Petroteq's Oil Sands Technology in this trial.
5) On successful completion of the trial, (which so for is looking good). Greenfield (Valkor and Tomco) will own a Petroteq Licence to use their equipment, and have access to associated IP generated from the trial.
Next step (If the POSP trial is successful)
6) When the trial is concluded, “Greenfield” have approximately £2.8 million to buy a site which includes some for working capital.
7) TOMCO are in the process of securing a site ( announced probably on conclusion of successful POSP trial) for the first proposed commercial 10,000 bopd plant using Petroteq's Oil Sands Technology now that they have been given the licence. This will use the Quanrise system also
8) A potential site in Utah, USA, has been identified by “Greenfield” that the Board believes has a number of key attributes that make it attractive. These attributes include, the required infrastructure to enable construction to commence quickly, the required permits, and the land containing appropriate resources.
9) They will make Further announcements as appropriate
If this trial is successful, which so far is looking good, in my opinion the opportunity for TOMCO is MASSIVE as they will hold the LICENCE and have access to the IP of the technology that will deliver greener oil and sand, as well as OWNING THEIR OWN production site.
