IV. Results of the exhibition

The company was able to show itself at the highest professional level, what allowed us to look worthy on the general background of participants with a global reputation and experience and attract the interest of visitors to the corporate pavilion.

The GTL stand allowed the exhibitors and guests of the exhibition to familiarize themselves with the mission of our company and our technologies.

Of particular interest was the high degree of environmental friendliness of our technological process of utilization of associated petroleum gas and obtaining the products needed in virtually every area of human life and, above all, energy.

Based on the results of participation in the exhibition, necessary business contacts were established during less than three months and negotiations were held on the beginning of the first stages of organizational work on the establishment of joint ventures. Demonstration of innovative technology for the production of GTL products was carried out to representatives of virtually all countries of the world that have associated petroleum and natural gas and are part of GTL's long-term strategic plans for the development of the global energy market.

Substantial development was achieved in previously prepared GTL plant construction projects in the USA, Canada, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Tanzania, Iran and Indonesia. All countries with which meetings and negotiations were organized were interested in using GTL technologies and solving the environmental and energy problems they face.

During the exhibition as part of the project in Indonesia, the joint venture PT. PETRO GTL INDONESIA carried out works for obtaining investment licenses from the government of the country. This license is a necessary requirement for financial and investment activities in the territory of Indonesia. Work was also carried out to obtain an environmental safety passport for the joint venture GTL-Kazakhstan.

During the exhibition, plans for the implementation of projects with all interested in the company's technologies and countries were prepared and preliminarily agreed. According to this program, in November from 8 to 10, President of JSC "GTL", Kadyrov Rafis Faizovich will visit Iran on a working visit.

Representatives of many international public organizations, banks, investors and top people of the world's leading companies who in the near future can become partners of GTL OJSC in the implementation of the program of its development on the world energy market have learned about the company GTL and its technologies.
