Meanwhile back in cloud cuckoo land, MSC have done exactly what Maersk have done...strung us along to virtual signal to the world they are actively doing something about climate change with regards to their fleet...

I'm angry with Borup...he specifically said that all the major points have been agreed and now its just tidying up the bits & pieces....I THINK WE ARE QUITE CLOSE

That to me me is blatant BS. We are actively engaged with senior people regularly and all parties remain committed.

But even more so is how Morrocco was then given the impression rhat now we have sidelined the OEM, it should be straightforward between OCP and QED from here on...

MORE BLATANT BS.

Nothing on Panama, Nothing on Valkor, Nothing on parallel trials...i'm gettung the impression that Borups is the Danish version of Miles...

He's just going around in circles regurgitating the same stuff...sounds desparate now..

Even if MSC has hot an imapsse....WHAT ABOUT MOROCCO FFS

A fuel may demonstrate excellent performance during testing but still struggle to achieve meaningful market penetration if supply chains are not ready.

Borup acknowledges that building those commercial foundations takes time.

Refineries operate on long investment cycles. Infrastructure decisions are often measured in decades rather than years. Shipowners want assurance that fuel will be available wherever their vessels trade.

As a result, scaling a new fuel requires patience as well as technological success.

That suggests to me that it will be a while...

Just nothing but endless waffle,

So is that setting us up for no news for the rest of the year then.

Don't read into things that may not be there AKHM, remember about MSC want QED fully funded before proceeding or MSC may have supported Borup to become CEO before proceeding. Nothing we have predicted has happened..nothing

Https://container-news.com/mpa-and-msc-sign-mou-to-strengthen-collaboration/

The agreement covers four principal areas of cooperation. On sustainability, MPA and MSC will explore new routes and services to strengthen connectivity, support the adoption of alternative marine fuels including bio-LNG, and advance technologies to improve vessel energy efficiency and operational performance.

Lets hope that one of those alternative marine fues is us.

You would like to believe that since we've had meetings with the Singapore Port Authorities and Refiners, this might be lining up the ducks for us...i can but wish.

No doubt collaborating and exploring opportunities with all our wonderful clients...shambolic

Https://shipandbunker.com/news/apac/936662-msc-and-mpa-sign-pact-to-support-bio-lng-adoption

Bet this goes a lot faster and smoother than it is with us.

Don't hold your breath or read anything into Borup and the crew staying on in Athens after this jolly up....more than likely talking to Greek or Turkish refineries to see if they would lile to produce our super duper wonderfuel, that nobody is wanting to trial....Even Costos on his greek fishing trawler is umming and arghing over a trial...

Https://shipandbunker.com/news/apac/992176-bhp-and-gcmd-trial-b100-biofuel-derived-from-two-feedstocks

Not stopping anybody else from performing trials, just anything our pathetic little outfit is involved in..

This is now pathetic, truly pathetic.....every official communique bigs this up as the second coming and then afterwards the reality hits and all goes quiet, the only sound is tumbleweed blowing through.

I thought Borup would be a blast of fresh air, but like Miles its all been absolute BS so far .....everything they've said so far has been a complete fabrication of reality

I'm beginning slowly to accept this is a bust....maybe it always has been and i couldn't see the wood for the trees.

I expect MSC and Morrocco to be impacted, but not Panama or Valkor.

And Yet the jollies to the conferences, spouting the same old carp continues...look to be seen doing something, and trying to convince the same people to listen...

Cheery stuff on here this week

Merely in response to the cheery stuff coming out of QED week in week out....give us something to be cheery about...then we can all wax lyrical

Well the way i see it...if PB doesn't find some success, it will be Egg on his face professionally....and i get the impression he takes the Big shipping go getter kind of seriously.

What's annoying is that JM over the years casually kept coming up with the excuses of delays, so matter of factly...and now Borup seems to be doing the same.

I'll admit when Borup came in i thought he's what the company needed to shake things loose, but he's not really done anything to impress.

Talks a great strategy talk...but considering he's well known and respected in the industry, its not had the effect we expected.

So nxt week he attends Athens conference and does the same usual waffle, repeating the same things over and over, seemingly convincing nobody

So, is this just rinse and repeat now Borup is in charge...a truly tedious and boring state of affairs tbh.

For me the shine and potential of Msar/BioMsar has very much wore off...i just want them to complete something and gives all hope this is going somewhere and not some perpetual gravy train that keeps rumbling on to nowhere.

If nothing by AGM i'm definitely not subscribing to any more fund raises....they had their chance and ....BLEW IT.

So this new route actually takes in Antwerp...
