Morocco Update

Quadrise Plc (AIM:QED), the supplier of innovative energy solutions for a cleaner planet, provides an update on its fuel trial in Morocco.

The industrial demonstration test commenced as planned this week in accordance with the client's production schedule. Quadrise personnel at the client site confirmed the MSAR(R) and bioMSAR(TM) fuel quality and fully commissioned the Company's pumping and heating unit ("PHU") at load.

Cold start-up of the client's combustion unit was carried out and the initial unit warm-up sequence was tested using MSAR(R) fuel. Unfortunately, whilst running at 100% a mechanical component in the PHU failed progressively, reducing the available unit load achievable from the Quadrise burner, and we were unable to complete the testing during May as originally planned. The parties agreed to pause the trial so that the client could complete their scheduled production run, and the respective Quadrise part could be replaced.

The replacement mechanical item concerned has been procured in the UK by Quadrise and will be sent to the client in Morocco as soon as possible. This will enable Quadrise to finalise optimisation of combustion at full load when the trial resumes.

Commenting on the update, Jason Miles, Chief Executive Officer of Quadrise, said:

"We are obviously disappointed not to have completed the trial during May due to an unexpected mechanical issue in our PHU. However, a replacement part has been purchased and expedited so that we can restart the operational production test at the next opportunity.

On behalf of the Quadrise team on site, we would like to thank our client in Morocco for their valuable and collaborative support during testing to date, and we look forward to returning and completing the test fully during the next production run with their team."
