In early February, a group of long-term retail shareholders were invited to the Quadrise Research Facility (QRF) to see work progressing on bioMSAR and MSAR Zero, projects that are key to Quadrise’s marine projects.

#QED would like to thank shareholders & investors who attended the Quadrise Research Facility. A special thanks goes to our QRF team, who provided attendees with a site tour & a series of informative bioMSAR™ demonstrations to show the potential of our innovative fuel.
It is also worth mentioning that Cargill operate a huge fleet of bulk and tanker vessels
This could be an opportunity to deploy Quadrise's "blend on board" technology with a key partner
Bulk & tankers operate on "tramping" principle where they go anywhere needed

#QED is pleased to announce that it has signed a collaboration agreement with @Cargill & MAC² for the production of our MSAR® & bioMSAR™ fuels ahead of our marine vessel trials with @MSCCargo

Leandra heading laden towards Goteborg (Gothenburg), where she is now.
I believe this picture was taken from traffic cameras on the famous 'Great Belt Bridge' (55° 20' 32.7" N, 011° 02' 28.5" E).

Even more clearly than before, MSC Leandra's new EGCS (scrubber) is visible in Gena Anfimov's photos.
I have highlighted it in the picture below.

- As an example, just the leg between Jacksonville and Klaipeda is very approximately 5040 nautical miles non-stop (caveat: operators can and do add in extra stops when it suits them).
Very rough non-stop engine hours:
@ 15kt = 336hrs
@ 20kt = 252hrs
MSC Leandra V (upcoming bioMSAR & MSAR test vessel) has been assigned a new route: ScanBaltic to USA
Once on regular rotation, this should take her from Klaipeda (Lithuania) via a range of Baltic, Scandinavian, and Northern European ports, then over to US east coast

- She'll visit ports that are mostly very fast and efficient at turning around the vessel; hence she should not spend a huge amount of time idling at anchorages and being loaded/unloaded. Stopped and idling does not count towards LONO hours! More time moving is better.
