Our Chairman's Voice

Newspaper Release:

Please read the article I carried out for a Norwegian Newspaper, the DN in defence of StatOil, with the fraud being attempted by a Irish broker [Click to download].

Hamilton Franks in Libya:

We are pleased to announce the re-commencement of drilling fields in Libya after our evacuation in May of 2011. All ground and office staff will be re-deployed back to Libya this month with all sites being active once again from mid to late February 2012.

Hamilton Franks Announcement:

We are pleased to announce that after our continual tracking, the individual known as Geoffroy Le'clerc from France, previous owner of Victoria Holdings Ltd, has now been arrested in Nice for fraud.
We acknowledge the help and support of the French Police in these matters [See news Paper Article], the power of the internet along with our own company Black List page. Proof that substantiating documents will always be these criminals downfall.

Colombian Visit:

[Click to See] HFC felt it prudent to visit Colombia to source products for the US and Caribbean islands; our visit was indeed fruitful and the list of suppliers we gained can of course be seen on our supply page.[Click to See] and ref. to these projects [Click to See].

Oil Prices Rise:

With the increase of tensions in Iran and the thought of Israel being forced into a corner, the strong possibilities of a conflict look ever more inevitable.

Iran, as we all know, is the world’s third largest supplier of Crude Oil outside of KSA and Russia. Iran have now ceased trading with Europe altogether, which is sending Crude higher each day.

I believe this will mirror the price rise of late 2008, where Crude reached a record breaking $159 per BBL. This time, prices may be even higher, with prices at the Petrol Forecourts/Gas pumps set to rise to levels we have never seen before.

However, in Jan 2009 the price dropped below $40 USD per BBL; that will not happen this time.

The knock on effect for refined products is all too evident, with the recommendation to fulfil any contracts now being essential to all, thus ensuring product deliverability.

Chairman's Comments On Fraud:

With the downturn throughout the whole world, more and more companies/individuals are attempting to gain products/goods by deception; we will publish all parties who go down this slippery route without exception, so all can see you for who and what you are. [Click To See RussNeft Reply]

Our Black List provides vital and detailed information regarding these undesirable so called clients, while at the same time giving full protection to all concerned no matter what business you are in.

I would welcome any statements from you, the public, and if this list has served you well, please write to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Saudi Arabia Trip:

Our recent trip to KSA Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia was yet another success story for HFC, this was not for supply purpose but, for HFC to offer our products in KSA to various companies who are looking to conduct transactions within Europe.
I found to local dress cooler than traditional clothing worn at home, although the heat was very intense as my face clearly shows; the trip itself was very beneficial and we look forward to conducting strong business for many years to come.[See Photo]
