Gen III Oil Corp. – Group III Base Oil – API Certification Achieved
12 Agosto 2019 - 7:30AM
Gen III Oil Corp. (“
Gen III” or the
“
Company”) (TSX-V: GIII) (OTCQX: ISRJF) is pleased
to announce the following update:
Gen III recently shipped a sample of its Group
III base oil to one of the top four global petroleum additives
manufacturers. The purpose was to pursue the American Petroleum
Institute’s (“API”) API SN Plus and ILSAC GF-5 certifications for
three passenger car motor oil (“PCMO”) formulations namely, 5W-20,
5W-30 and 10W-30. The petroleum additives firm subsequently
informed the Company that Gen III’s Group III base stock qualified
for API certification through its 5W-30 formulation. The
blending of the 5W-20 and 10W-30 PCMO formulations are ongoing.
Gen III then submitted its first Group III based
5W-30 PCMO formulation and ReGen III product to API’s Engine Oil
Licensing and Certification System (“EOLCS”). The API EOLCS
is a voluntary licensing and certification program that authorizes
engine oil marketers that meet specified requirements to use the
API Engine Oil Quality Marks globally.
Gen III is pleased to announce it has achieved API
certification and licensing for its Group III based SAE Viscosity
Grade 5W-30 formulation. The Company may now utilize the
Resource Conserving, SN Plus and ILSAC GF-5 designations on its
ReGen III product. Gen III is now listed on the API Directory
of
Licensees: https://engineoil.api.org/Directory/EolcsResultsDetail?accountId=-1&companyId=12562&resultsUrl=%2FDirectory%2FEolcsResults%3FaccountId%3D-1%26companyName%3DGen%2520III%2520Oil%2520Corporation
At this time, Gen III believes it is one of only three companies
certified by API for a re-refined base oil.
This is a significant milestone for Gen III and
is the culmination of several years’ work. API licensing and
certification of its Group III base oil will lead to higher prices
for Gen III’s offtakes over uncertified base oils. Working
with this premium petroleum additives firm will enhance Gen III’s
product marketing efforts, introducing blenders from around North
America to the Company’s ReGen III base oil. Gen III management
believes these recent developments will significantly enhance the
value of the Company’s offtake from the perspective of potential
institutional investors.
Gen III also re-confirms the due diligence
process is ongoing with several large institutional parties in
connection with project finance.
