I agree with you, although I don't know just how big DDCC will ultimately become. However,with a number of potential additional industries it can serve, I can see it growing over a fairly long period of time. After they fulfill the fracking and refracking industries, they will be still be able to furnish Transprops to other industries, and thus continue to expand.
There is much greater potential for the Translock squared system than just in the fracking market. Many other industries could benefit from it, plus its use could expand to several other nations, over time. Maybe DoubleCrown will simply collect patent fees in some nations that use Translocks, which would not require much investments there?
Done, ProfitScout! It came out under Greendolphin's name.
Have you noticed the recent announcement added that future Translock system designs will be "tweaked" to meet industry-specific requirements, rather than attempting a, "one size fits all" Translock design? This should enable the most efficient and satisfactory use of this new shipping container, as unique adaptions are added for shipping different products, as needed.
My sense is that this will be a fairly long-term, continuous implementation, with the manufacture and usage of the Translock2 systems growing steadily, and the DDCC company size and stock price rising at a good clip over many years to come!
Yup, someone must have placed a non-limit buy order, and the price just went up 24%!
Yeah, and what the stock do when they discover a big field of baseball-sized nuggets on their gold property in Canada? [:^)
The Chinese have already pledged to lend $270 million to build the Fulton plant. Should the DOE, or any other US source, fail to lend the remaining amount needed to build and run Fulton, my hunch is then another Chinese source ( or the same, namely its EXIM Bank) could come up with the difference, since the success of Fulton is needed nearly as much by the Chinese as by Bluefire, in order to assure them of successful operation of what could become dozens of cellulosic ethanol plants, using Bluefire's economical concentrated acid hydrolysis technology.
I couldn't agree more with ProfitScout! I tried to suggest in my my last post how truly unique and useful the new shipping Translock2 container should become, and in many other nations around the world, if they succeed in patenting wherever they apply.
I have held DDCC for over two years now, and plan to hold on over the long haul, expecting huge profits over time, as they continue to expand production and use of Translocks, which should transform the shipping of many other types of materials, besides refracking materials.
What a massive invention the Translock2 system is, compared to the "hopper car" mode of rail transport my ex-employer uses to ship carbon black to the tire industry(for rubber reinforcement). That is simply an entire rail car container that narrows at the bottom, and has three spouts that can be opened to allow product to flow into the user's conveyor system. The product has to be pelletized to just the right density in order to flow down and out of the car without "caking up" and requiring time-consuming labor. If the pellets are too hard, they will not disperse well in the rubber, and cause product issues.
The Translock2 appears capable of efficiently loading, shipping, and unloading any number of industrial materials, due to its unique design giving a high degree of adaptability to numerous types of products.
Thanks, ProfitScout, for the very encouraging words, to which I whole-heartedly agree. I am definitely holding onto my shares, and expecting great increases over the coming months and years, as both the fracking and refracking industry takes off, and the Translocksquared container comes to be the preferred shipping mode, throughout many industries! [:^)
Not me. I emailed Richard a couple weeks ago with no reply! [:^(
I noticed that too, ProfitScout. Do you, or anyone, know what port that will be, and/or if it is in the US?
I suspect they are still finalizing the latest improvements in the T-L2, and without much income as yet, there may be a few more delays in getting that into production. Plus, with new barite and frack sand orders beginning to come in and, with the few number of employees, DDCC will most likely concentrate on details of filling these new orders, hiring new personnel, etc., to establish continuing shipments, even if it means using conventional shipping containers for a while longer.
JMHO, but that seems to me a logical presumption for a relatively new provider, with a new, significantly improved product.
Plus, Mr. Oakley said it was only his initial research on DDCC, implying he would be doing deeper research again for later publication, possibly including communicating directly with Tricia Oakley, as some of us have!
The more stock advisors that catch onto DDCC, the better it should be for us early investors! [:?)
This guy = Larry Oakley, who wrote the positive review on DDCC that was recently posted.
I wonder if this guy is yet aware that he and DDCC's Secretary-Treasurer share the same last name? [:^)
Spec, what have you observed in their Korean venture? While their contract has a non-disclosure clause, I am reasonably sure, as a Chemical Engineer, that at least one plant using Bluefire's technology is onstream and operating successfully by now.
To use your earlier word, "assuming" that is true, what does that tell you about Bluefire's value now?
Spec ,assuming what you said is true( which I don't), that would not leave us anything to TAKE to the bank! [:^(
They don't get enough miles between charging. Toyota has a good idea of using a smaller gas engine, combined with an electric motor, which gets all its electric energy from the gas engine. I think this approximately doubles the mileage based on gas consumption.
Agreed! Maybe even TRIPLE CROWNED, if you include Tricia Oakley, Sec'y-Treas./Dir. of Corp. Admin. [:^)
Probably so, Tommy, but I fully expect a DDCC rally MUCH sooner than Jesus returning to the Jerusalem Temple, which hasn't even been rebuilt yet! [:^)
BFRE's day will come, when they announce total financing for the Fulton plant. This may wind up with all remaining funds coming from China, since they need Fulton's success to verify the soundness of building multiple plants in China.
BigIron, two of us agree on that, in Jesus' name!
If you others will agree, there will be greater probability of that happening! [:^)
Actually, the chart is just screaming for an upward blast!
Thanks, HaasCat for the insights! I agree, with all that is going on, higher prices are on the way! ( I have a cat, too)! [:^)
I'll take some of that health and wealth you are giving out too, HaasCat!
With all the possibilities and probabilities expected to open up within the next year or so, I see the potential of DDCC trading much higher than 10 Cents/sh a year from now.
Yes, I am "imagining" a super-rich gold vein at Bateman with huge nuggets, and very easy mining! [:^)
Thanks, Spidaman, for the new info on blender pumps, and increasing sensible progress on working more ethanol into gasoline. I noticed that gas station in Minnesota offers nice discounts for E15 and E30.
This all bodes well for companies like Bluefire in the US (already moving in Korea, and getting ready to, in China), who will be using among the lowest-cost of raw materials for producing ethanol.
Watch the interest and activity EXPLODE after Bluefire announces total financing has been obtained for the Fulton plant!
In my view, the question is not "whether", but WHEN?
Two comments:
1. The Korean deal has a non-disclosure agreement( Bluefire can't talk about it, and my comments are based on reasonable assumptions relative to the time involved). My last message was based on the assumption that the Korean plant(s) is successful.
2. The only issue with the Fulton project is financing, NOT the process.
I also agree with Mr Pennypacker! That is an interesting view, and could well help in China winding up fully funding Fulton, if the US Gov. won't do any more. [:^(
I for one(as a Chemical Engineer), am confident the Fulton plant WILL be successful, since the Koreans have at least one plant running by now, using Bluefire's technology. If that had been a failure, I feel sure that Arnie Klann, a man of high integrity, would be rethinking their attempt to go ahead with Fulton by now.
Even if GS Caltex(Korea) is only using Bluefire's sucrose technology(through Bluefire's wholly-owned SucreSouce, LLC), that would still be a tremendous success, since the conversion of sucrose to ethanol( or any number of similar chemicals)is done through well-known chemical processes. (Even Rednecks in the TN woods know how to turn corn into corn liquor, which is high in ethanol). [:?)
Agree with you, BigIron.
This all looks and sounds very impressive, ProfitScout. This seems to be a very good invention for all concerned!
I totally disagree that BFRE's technology is a failed one. The only failure so far, is the ability to fund a plant.
I fully expect total funding now will come from Chinese sources, since they also have a strong interest in putting this technology to work!
I agree with you, BigIron. ProfitScout scouts out profits for us, and keeps us well-informed on company activities.
I think now they should concentrate on activating the deals they now have in the works, and on generating revenues. Very likely, more acquisitions and expanding deals will happen as needed to grow the company into a major supplier of drilling materials.
Yes, including multiple ties with South America and Mexico!
Bob, as a general rule, I agree dilution is not a good thing, but I think they just don't have the structure (and TransLocks) in place yet to begin doing a high rate of shipping, and need capital to build up those necessary things, including more personnel.
Therefore, I believe authorizing more shares is probably a good thing over the longer-term for DDCC to accelerate business!
I certainly agree, ProfitScout! It appears you have "Scouted" out some growing and long-lasting "Profits" here! [:^) It may take longer than we would like to see happen, but it should be well worth the wait.
Looks like DDCC may become a major supplier of drilling materials in South America, too!
I think their desire to double the number of authorized shares should be a good thing, by adding to capital and the ability to prepare for business( hiring personnel, building TransLocks, upgrading facilities, etc).
Anyone see it differently?
So, at least three of us seem to have invested as a result of that hint from Kim! I didn't think then(two years ago) it would take so long to develop, but it seems so far to have been worth the wait, as the news is getting better now than it ever has!
Interesting, lots of volume and very little motion; maybe financing discussions are nearing an agreement?
