Largest Bank in the World to Assist Genoil to Source Investors for The Velikoye Oil Field

Velikoye oil field is the largest Russian oil field discovery in the last 20 years and the project is of significant interest to numerous international oil companies

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 7, 2019 / Genoil Inc. (OTCQB:GNOLF) announces that the largest bank in China and the largest bank in the world by total assets, deposits, loans, number of customers and number of employees has been formally retained. They have been working for the past several months to bring strategic investors and finance for development the massive Velikoye oil field in Russia. Due to the recent destabilizing events in the Middle East, all parties have expressed a strong desire to move fast on this project because this project unlocks an alternate source of crude oil supply.

AFB is an oil company holding both exploration licenses and production licenses for a total of 700 square kilometers. These licenses are estimated to contain 150 billion tons of oil and oil equivalent. With the support of the largest bank in the world, Genoil Inc. is leading a consortium towards development of the project.

Chairman & CEO, Mr. David K. Lifschultz states, "We have had many meetings with the SuperBank recently here in Russia, which is evidence of their keen interest. They are completing their reports and the next step is to have meetings with the major investor that they have sourced. The Velikoye Oil Field could be the most important new oil field in Russia. There is also a possibility to commercialize the GHU technology on the site to upgrade and desulfurize the crude production from this field. This project has attracted the largest bank in the world, and they have indicated that one of their significant investors is interested to invest in the project."

The magnitude of the discovery of a large oil field in the Astrakhan Region came to light several years ago. Interfax at that time quoted the lead geologist at AFB that the company estimated the field's reserves at 150 million tons of oil equivalent and 40 billion cubic meters of natural gas, confirming that this is the largest oil field discovered in Russia in the last 20 years. At the same time, it was noted that the Velikoye field has very good light and sweet crude oil. The estimated capital requirements to develop Velikoye is approximately $5 billion USD beginning with further seismic work, asessment of wells and initial production.

About Genoil Inc.:

Genoil is an independent exploration, production company which has experience drilling for oil and gas in the Caribbean. The company specializes in heavy oil development and is focused on long term growth. Genoil has developed a proprietary, state of the art patented advanced hydroconversion process technology (heavy to light & sour to sweet). This advanced Hydroconversion Upgrader (GHU), converts heavy crude oils and refinery bottoms into clean crude that is much more valuable. This more valuable crude produces a higher value product slate meaning that this new crude oil refines into clean-burning fuels for transportation. The company is deeply focused on the downstream transportation refining industries especially shipping. Hydroconversion is a common and proven desulfurization process, capable of processing various feedstocks ranging from crude oil to Naptha.

The Genoil Hydroconversion Upgrader (GHU®), is an advanced upgrading and desulfurization technology, which converts heavy or sour crude oil into much more valuable light low sulphur oil for a very low cost. The GHU achieves 96% pitch conversion and 95% desulfurization with an operating cost of up to 75% less than the competition. For Conoco Canada Ltd, Genoil converted their bitumen of 6-8.5 API and converted it to 24.5 API. We also removed 92% of the sulphur reducing the amount from 5.14 % to below 0.24%. These results were taken by Conoco Canada Ltd, who had them analysed by Core Laboratories, one of the largest service providers of core and fluid analysis in the petroleum industry.
