GENOIL INC. ANNOUNCES MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH QINHUANGDAO PORT
2009-02-03
GENOIL ALSO SIGNS JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT WITH CLARENDON GROUP INTERNATIONALCalgary, Alberta, Canada – February 3, 2009 – Genoil Inc. (TSX.V: GNO – News) (OTCBB: GNOLF.OB – News) today announced it has signed a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with Qinhuangdao Port and a joint venture agreement with The Clarendon Group.
The MOU with Qinhuangdao Port is for the introduction and implementation of Genoil’s oil-water separation system to treat and clean bilge water. Qinhuangdao Port is strategically located for transporting coal from the north to the south of China, handling approximately 50 percent of China’s coal shipments, or 200 million tons annually making the port the world’s largest coal loading port. Opened in 1893, Qinhuangdao Port is the eleventh largest port in the world, in terms of tonnage shipped, and is larger than any port in United States.
Genoil will either be furnishing a pilot unit or building a full production unit to speed up the final implementation of the project. The Company hopes to make a decision by the end of the month. The oil-water separation system will be produced in China by Genoil’s manufacturing partner DongHwa Entec Co., Ltd providing the Company with low production and transportation costs. Genoil expects to have a unit installed within the next three months for testing at the Port and if accepted anticipates recognizing sales and profits in 2009. The Company is optimistic that the unit will be accepted because of the technologies’ flawless operation at sites across the world over the past 10 years.
The Company also signed a joint venture agreement with The Clarendon Group to co-operate internationally in the promotion, marketing, sales, service provision and logistics of Genoil’s Crystal Oil Water Separators. The Clarendon Group, based in London, England, provides established international financial expertise with extensive knowledge and experience of new technologies with key contacts in ports and port servicing companies internationally having already made potential sales in Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkey, United States, Bahamas and China with an extended sales pipeline in the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe.
David Lifschultz, Genoil s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said “The Qinhuangdao Port MOU is a defining moment of Genoil and I am extremely excited that we expect to begin to report sales and profits for 2009 as a result of the MOU. Our Crystal Oil Water Separators have been operational for over 10 years throughout Australia, Romania, and United States including units at the United States’ Army’s Fort Bliss in Texas and the United States’ Marine Corps’ Camp Pendleton in California. Ports around the world are recognizing the monetary and environmental value of our Crystal Oil Water Separators and we expect to sign additional MOUs shortly with several larger Asian ports. As we role out the technology to additional Asian ports, we expect the profitability of the Company to dramatically increase.”
