I am really not that offended by the sharing. Perhaps it's therapeutic and freeing to be able to discuss personal detail you might not share to others in person in a public forum where you are anonymous and can say what you like?

And I think the motivation and purpose behind his/her investing is extremely honourable. Good luck to you and I wish all the best for your daughter.

The logic being that because you have a certain tolerance of volatility, everyone else must be the same, and if they aren't, they must be an unscrupulous trader seeking to manipulate the share price in nefarious ways?

Out of interest - if you'd made a big investment on 5 July and it was down 11% to date, would you be pleased?

In March we were mid open offer to see if we had the funds to see any project through to completion. Perhaps the uncertainty led to caution on the part of our partners? It's not what I wanted to read (or not read) but my gut is that we are still edging forward just at the same old glacial pace. If I wasn't up to my eyeballs already, I'd be buying given the projects still in play. Will only take a few positive RNS' and we're away. Keep focused on the prize people.

If we are turning away prospective shipping customers because we haven't got the LONO sorted, SURELY this should give us some leverage (if only small) with the big boys to get the damn trial agreement signed - s**t or get off the pot . Yes, we are the minnow, though my fear is they're taking the approach of "it's with them and their lawyers, it will happen when it happens", rather being onto them with "C'mon lads, we're good to go, it's either you or one of these other 5 companies that are keen as mustard, do you want first mover advantage or not? You're in? Good, let's get it done by Friday."

No time to be a wallflower. There is money to be made! And lots of it.

We are pleased to announce our new agreement with BTG Bioliquids.

This week, we signed a Cooperation Framework Agreement with BTL to expand the engine testing programme for bioMSAR™ incorporating BTL’s FPBO sugars to larger engines ahead of marine vessel testing in 2026.

Our CEO, Jason Miles, describes this announcement as the “result of the substantial progress Quadrise and BTL have made with their respective technologies and provides a clear plan to incorporate BTL's sustainable pyrolysis sugars into bioMSAR™.”

"The bickering is reaching fever pitch again, which must mean an RNS is on the way.

Will be checking at 7am tomorrow and Wednesday!"

Glad to see there's nothing wrong with the RNS-ometer. Shame a bunch of testing through to 2026 isn't too much to get excited about.

Right... as you were, Whisky and StockCheque (plus friends who absolutely, definitely, 100%, without question aren't StockCheque)...

The bickering is reaching fever pitch again, which must mean an RNS is on the way.

Will be checking at 7am tomorrow and Wednesday!

C'mon Jason, the cat's getting bored inside that bag.

I did prod IR on this to try and determine the extent of the site preparations, and whether this included physical instalments or, for example, simply preparatory conversations. I was informed the site preparation works are being carried out by MAC2 and they weren't in a position to discuss MAC2's activities.

Hahaha made me smile that, Indigo. Very good.

Thanks Basher - I am optimistic about the future, though suspect the LinkedIn activity is a result of an advised strategy, rather than just JM's own personal bullishness. I suspect our posts crossed but see my post at 11:23 below.

Saw JM also liked the following post, which probably explains his recent reinvention / thought leadership posts on LinkedIn:

This post is an intervention.

If you’re posting on your company socials and expecting people to see it,

You’re deluding yourself.

The algorithms across all social media channels in 2024 make it near impossible for company accounts to achieve organic reach and engagement.

Why?

Because they want you to pay for it.

So what can you do?

1. You could pay for it.

However, “boosting” content posted on company socials is like pouring money into a bottomless pit.

The moment you stop paying, the reach and engagement stops too.

This is not sustainable for any business.

2. Build a personal brand.

Company content shared by personal brands on social media can earn

- 561% more organic reach

- 8x more engagement

than the SAME content posted on a company’s social media channels (MSL Group).

For free.

Simply put, personal branding is the only way that makes sense to get your company content seen in 2024.

The world of engineering has always fascinated me.

Engineering isn't just about building structures or machines; it's about solving complex issues that affect our planet and its people.

My desire to become an engineer was driven by the realisation that, through this profession, I could make a tangible impact on the world.

After I graduated as a chemical engineer, I joined BP in a joint venture with PDVSA, the Venezuelan state energy company; and embarked on a journey with cheaper and cleaner emulsion fuels called Orimulsion®.

Using engineering principles to solve the problem of transporting and using heavy bitumen, the Orimulsion team built the business from scratch, reaching a production of 100,000 barrels per day (a value equivalent to $1.8 billion annually today) with plans to expand four-fold.

When political upheaval in Venezuela in the early 2000s led to the disbandment of this business, the key team joined Quadrise Plc to build on the potential for emulsion fuels with the development of MSAR® technology.

We have used engineering and technology to solve challenges including lowering fuel costs, reducing harmful emissions and improving fuel efficiency in engines.

Our MSAR® technology has been utilised in applications ranging from electricity generation in Lithuania, to powering a containership across the North and Mediterranean seas, and recently heating a large furnace in Morocco.

The technology has evolved to embrace new technologies and environmental needs, resulting in the launch of our lower-carbon bioMSAR™ fuel and our accelerated progress towards developing a fully net-zero bioMSAR™ blend before 2030.

Climate change, arguably the most urgent issue of our time, demands innovative and affordable engineering solutions.

At Quadrise, we blend creativity with technical expertise to address this challenge head-on. Quadrise engineers are uniquely positioned to advance our contribution toward a sustainable future.

This chance to make a meaningful impact is why I’m still proud to be an engineer (much to the surprise of my university lecturers I’m sure!).

What is the update?

Ah, the bickering is ramping up to fever pitch. Usually a good indicator that there's some news on the way!

That you ask the question in an appropriate forum.

Hopefully they sit down in the hotel bar together tonight with the contract, a pen and a bottle of whisky and agree not to stand up until it's signed!

Interesting panel. Have we seen Cargill/MSC billed together before at other similar events? Hopefully an agreement is in the offing!

There is also the binding terms sheet for the BTG shipping trial we were told would be signed in the next month or so:

"A binding term sheet is expected to be finalised and signed within four months of signing the PDA to cover the larger diesel engine tests, the marine vessel trial and the future commercial relationships between the parties."

That would also be pretty significant news!
