GIII Regen III Corp

Gen III Oil Corp. (“Gen III” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:GIII) is pleased to provide the following update on the FEED process.

Stage 1 (Stantec Consulting Ltd.) and Stage 3 (Process Dynamics Inc.) design packages (“PDP’s”) have been completed ahead of schedule and are currently undergoing edits prior to final sign off along with the completion of ancillary supporting documentation.  Gen III is also in the process of finalizing its Bowden facility licensing agreement with Process Dynamics for the use of any Stage 3 proprietary technology.

Koch Modular Process Systems (“Koch Modular”) has completed additional pilot tests during August which have enabled them to finalize the Stage 2 solvent ratio and Group III yield offtakes.  These results form the design basis of Stage 2 and KMPS’s process guarantee.  The tests were successful and they confirmed Group III offtake yields of between 70% to 75% of Stage 2 input. 

Additionally, Koch Modular has presented Gen III with a preliminary design costing proposal (including transportation and installation) with a +/- 30% expense tolerance, that remains within budget.  Manufacturing, fabrication, transportation and installation figures will be refined in the coming months to within a +/- 15% tolerance.

Company President & COO Gordon Driedger stated, “The support shown by our engineering partners is impressive.  The receipt of Stage 1 and Stage 3 PDP’s ahead of schedule are testament to these teams’ efforts on the Gen III project.  These two documents provide valuable information to GEN III as they are not only the foundation for final engineering work but they also enable our EPC contractor, PCL Industrial Management Inc. to improve project costing as we await final FEED. 

We are also pleased with the certainty gained from the additional pilot tests undertaken by Koch Modular in August.  From these tests we are able to confirm 55% yield of Group III base oil and our design solvent ratio for the critical extraction process. We believe this will lead to improved project economics.”
