Appointment of Broker
QFI, the emerging manufacturer and supplier of MSAR® emulsion fuels, a low cost alternative to heavy fuel oil in the global shipping, refining and steam and power generation markets, is pleased to announce the appointment of Westhouse Securities Limited ("Westhouse") as its broker with immediate effect.
Commenting on the appointment, Ian Williams, Chairman of Quadrise, said:
"We are delighted to have appointed Westhouse to advise and support the Company in this next important phase of our development. Westhouse has a strong and growing franchise in the oil and gas sector and a solid understanding of our business. The Westhouse team fully supports management's ambitions for growth and recognises the significant value potential of our group. Alongside Westhouse, we have also appointed Pelham Bell Pottinger as the Company's full service financial communications advisors.
Together, these appointments reflect the step change now underway in the Quadrise business and are in keeping with the additional support services the Company requires as we commercialise our low cost emulsion fuels for shipping and other heavy fuel oil users. The heavy fuel oil market is one of the largest global liquid fuels markets, valued at over US$350 billion per annum at present prices.
