Didnt BrianMcSavilleHaggis say the licences were all approved back in November?.. Well they havent!

More tripe from the arch rampist!

It's the same old mantra I'm afraid Wonga.

This from the update March 2021...
"Work on this industrial-scale trial is progressing, with the new pumping and heating unit fabricated and ready for shipment. The required ~60mt of MSAR® fuel is to be manufactured by a third party and sent directly to site. The trial is scheduled to be completed as early as possible in H1 2021 along with the phase 2 feasibility study. QFI will be paid £100,000 for the industrial trial and phase 2 study under existing agreements with the client.

· Following the successful conclusion of the industrial trial, the plan is to complete the commercial trial at Site A, which is the major fuel oil consumer, by early/mid H2 2021. Assuming the successful conclusion of these trials, the intention would then be to conclude a commercial supply agreement covering one or more of the client's sites in Morocco before calendar year (2021!!!) end."

I fear nothing will change until there is a serious threat to the BOD's generous salaries continuing without evidence of succesful commercial results!

"but further funds will be required to see each key project to commercialisation"

Trading working on HL app fine ..at least for a dummy trade.

Toby, probably just as likely that MSC bought it to rip the motor out and fit it in Soren Skou's Mini coupled to a centre branch manifold and an RC40 straight through exhaust, he's got minifin brake drums and red corbeau seats too .

..Some bloke in a pub told me and I'm sticking to it

Or in Haggis's case after a ramp...

"Quick Everybody, Dump!"

QED ..'quod erat demonstrandum' .."Which was to be demonstrated"

We do a lot of trials!

A bit of history..

After the incident, the SI was unloaded of all containers to presumably bring the damage above the waterline. She then sailed some 800 miles under her own power to the Betsiktas shipyard in Turkey for repair. At the same time, it was decided to carry out engine wear tests to issue part LONO on MSAR. Maersk in the interim decided they didn't want the "chemical plant of a Scrubber" onboard their ships at that moment in time. Following repair, the SI was put on a different route which couldn't take in San Roque for MSAR fuelling at CEPSA.

The MSAR trial, was ended prematurely. A part LONO was issued.

Facts straight AKHM. This was NEVER an Excuse by QFI or Maersk, it came in a note to agents expecting their deliveries of containers, by a third party consigning agent. The ship actually hit a submerged wreck (which was unmarked by a buoy!!) ripping a large tear in the outer hull.

But, but, I'm sure HaggisMcSavilleBrian TOLD us in November unequivocaly that the Licences had been approved???

Funny isn't it Aussie, I thought the forum was supposed to be the place where open views aren't tolerated?!!

Just isn't the case of course, unless you, in the past, disagreed with Brian (Saville) but he long deserted it when it had served his purpose!

No, we just don't tolerate Shorters / Rampers / Windup or soapbox merchants who can't make their point in less than 5 posts!

How things have changed!

Have a great weekend, you wouldn't want to be out of it!

RNS 21 January 2021 ..Over 2 years ago BTW ...

Initial activities under the (MSC) JDA will include project initiation, definition, high-level scoping and feasibility activities ("Initial Activities") of the overall Trial. The Initial Activities are to be completed within 3 months.

Contingent on the outcome of the Initial Activities the parties will progress and define the project roadmap during Q2'21 in preparation for the execution of one or more Trials commencing in H2'21 on representative commercial vessels in MSC's global fleet ("Phase 1"). Upon completion and success of Phase 1, and subject to further agreement between the parties, the JDA envisages subsequent commercial roll-out across the MSC global fleet ("Phase 2").

Is it H2 2021 yet??

Still waiting?

PFFFFT!

Haggis is Dr Who and I claim my £5.

The only way QFI ever will meet ANY original OR subsequent targets is with a Tardis!

Spot on Vince! We've been here too long :-o

Its a classic Friday wind up. Cue tje rampers!

.. Enter Haggis stage left....

.. Sounds more like Jason must be building a swimming pool in the Dordogne! ;-D

There is a solution off the shelf. .......If only someone would hurry up and put the ******* shelf up!...

https://www.manifoldtimes.com/news/quadrise-highlights-positive-test-results-of-biomsar-fuel-on-wartsila-diesel-engine/

'The bioMSAR™ test highlights are as follows:

Engine efficiency was higher (up to 7%) than with marine diesel, increasing with engine load.
Average calculated CO2 emissions were 26% lower than diesel on a life-cycle (“well-to-wake”) basis, due to a combination of the 40% renewable glycerine content of bioMSAR™ and the higher engine efficiency.
NOx emissions were lower than for prior HFO and MSAR® tests, and comparable to diesel, with further NOx optimisation possible.
Smoke and particulate levels were very low, as were unburned hydrocarbons emissions, due to efficient fuel combustion.
The existing diesel engine fuel pumps and injectors worked well with bioMSAR™.'

..reads like a 'StuffedSheepsStomach' ramp doesn't it!? ..But no, it's true!

Oy! I thought I was filtered?? :-D
