The Company is pleased to announce that on Friday, August 8th, 2008 the first production trial of its Barbados refining facility ended in the successful production of approximately one hundred gallons of refined biodiesel.
“We are very pleased to have arrived at this milestone,” said Handel Callender, General Manager of Amelot Oil Barbados. “The successful completion and testing of our Barbados refining facility means that in time, the Company will be able to increase output of refined biodiesel to a level which will one day satisfy this small island’s demand for affordable, clean energy,” Mr. Callender continued.
“The successful launch of our Barbados refining and production facilities means that the Company can continue with the business of securing feedstock — in this case, used cooking oil — and pursuing relationships with potential consumers of Amelot biodiesel,” said Aziz Hirji, Chief Executive of Amelot Holdings, Inc., (Other OTC:AMHD.PK) the parent company of Amelot Oil, Inc.
Hirji said additional staff have been hired at the Company’s refining facility and he expects regular production at the facility to begin in September, 2008.
