DekelOil Executive Director Lincoln Moore said, “Following another excellent quarterly performance during what is a low fruit harvesting season, we have now produced more than twice as much CPO in the first nine months of the year as we did for the whole of 2014.

“We expect the strong momentum behind our project at Ayenouan to continue to build in line with our strategy to increase CPO production towards the Mill’s 70,000 tonnes per annum capacity, through the delivery of additional FFB from our own plantations as well as our local collection network of smallholders and logistics centres. Progress with our kernel crushing plant is on time and on budget and we look forward to commissioning in Q4 2015. This is an exciting period for DekelOil, and I look forward to providing further updates on our progress as we continue to build a leading West African palm oil company.”
