HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 14, 2017 / Blue Dolphin Energy Company ("Blue Dolphin") (OTCQX: BDCO), an independent refiner and marketer of refined petroleum products in the Eagle Ford Shale, today announced an unfavorable outcome in its arbitration proceedings with GEL Tex Marketing, LLC ("GEL").
As previously disclosed, Blue Dolphin has been involved in arbitration proceedings (the "GEL Arbitration") with GEL, an affiliate of Genesis Energy, LP, related to a contractual dispute involving a Crude Oil Supply and Throughput Services Agreement and a Joint Marketing Agreement between Blue Dolphin's subsidiary, Lazarus Energy, LLC ("LE"), and GEL. On August 11, 2017, the arbitrator delivered its final award in the GEL Arbitration (the "Final Arbitration Award").
The Final Arbitration Award denied all of LE's claims against GEL and granted substantially all of the relief requested by GEL in its counterclaims. Among other matters, the Final Arbitration Award awarded damages, legal fees and court costs to GEL in the aggregate amount of approximately $31.3 million, payable by LE to GEL. The Final Arbitration Award is final, non-appealable and binding on the parties.
Blue Dolphin is currently evaluating the effects of the Final Arbitration Award on its business, financial condition and results of operations, which effects may be material and adverse. Additional information regarding the Final Arbitration Award and its effects will be included in Blue Dolphin's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017 (the "Quarterly Report"). Filing of the Quarterly Report could be delayed as a result of the Final Arbitration Award.
