Amelot Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AMHD) announced today that
Amelot Oil and Barbados National Oil Company Ltd.(BNOCL) have
signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU), with the
intent to form a joint venture (JV) in Barbados for the ownership
and operation of a biodiesel production facility for the supply of
biodiesel fuel. The JV would enable Amelot and BNOCL to establish a
scalable and sustainable biofuels business.
The Barbados National Oil Company is a national state-owned
energy provider in the country of Barbados. Founded several decades
ago, the company satisfies about 30% of the country's total
consumption of oil and gas.
Amelot Oil, wholly owned by Amelot Holdings, has been operating
a production facility in Barbados since 2008. The Amelot Oil
Barbados biodiesel plant operates on used cooking oil. By working
with such an impure feedstock threatening to pollute the ecosystem,
Amelot Oil managed to stand out in Barbados and demonstrated proof
of concept and growing demand for alternative fuel.
Biodiesel, for BNOCL, for use in the planned 6 month pilot
project to further study the impact of using Biodiesel in Barbados.
This phase also calls for a state of the art gas station with B20
fuel pump which is a blend of 20-percent biodiesel and 80-percent
conventional diesel.
The MoU envisages that under the second phase Amelot and BNOCL
will jointly operate a biodiesel production facility that will
utilize containerized modular equipment and proprietary feedstock
technology. The modular design and sustainability of the process is
expected to produce biodiesel in such quantities as required to
support BNOCL's long term goal of replacing conventional diesel
with 100% biodiesel.
"The MoU demonstrates our continued long-term commitment to
Barbados. We are looking forward to joining with a leading company
there to meet the needs of retail and commercial fuels customers in
that growing market. The joint venture would enable Amelot to set
up a profitable bio-fuels business, with the potential to deploy
next generation technologies. We have been looking for a partner
with the resources and scaling capabilities to rapidly
industrialize our biodiesel production in Barbados. We are
delighted to have found this partner in BNOCL," stated Fred
Guarnieri, President and CEO of Amelot Holdings, Inc.
The current outstanding common shares balance is 4,309,573,155
and the number of authorized shares is 4,925,000,000. Mr. Guarnieri
currently owns 736,275,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
