"it proves that city oil field's technology is recognized at home and abroad as an eco-friendly, sustainable solution," ceo jung young-hoon said.   "this shows that while korea may have entered later, it can now lead the global circular plastic oil market. our company is set to become a key global reference in the circular plastics economy."   the certifications mark the first time korean-produced circular plastic oil has met eu export requirements. a major european corporation is currently in discussions with city oil field regarding sample purchases and on-site inspections at the jeongeup facility.   by obtaining iscc plus, ktl and psm certifications, the company said it has secured technical, legal and market credibility, laying the foundation for stable operations and enhanced competitiveness in the global market."   furthermore, on 2nd october 2025 cof reported in the korea times (https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/business/companies/20251002/city-oil-field-secures-saudi-uae-investment):   "city oil field said thursday it has secured foreign corporate investment from pedco of saudi arabia and the united arab emirates, marking its official launch as a global eco-friendly energy enterprise. the two sides signed the first round of investment contracts monday (local time) at pedco's headquarters in riyadh, saudi arabia. the ceremony was attended by city oil field ceo jeong yeong-hun, pedco saudi arabia ceo abdulmohsen al-zamil, pedco uae ceo edoardo lucarelli and eno partner ceo park se-hyun.   city oil field said pedco has valued the company at about 100 billion won ($72.2 million). under the agreement, the parties signed an initial investment deal worth $1 million, with additional funding to follow from both saudi arabia and the uae.   founded in 1991, pedco has worked with major middle eastern companies, including saudi aramco and the abu dhabi national oil company (adnoc) on power, energy and special projects. the company holds exclusive rights to commercialize city oil field's technology in saudi arabia, the uae, australia and new zealand.   the investment makes city oil field a foreign-invested enterprise, allowing the company to benefit from tax exemptions, duty-free imports of equipment and other incentives designed to strengthen global partnerships. the company said the advantages will help reduce costs for expanding its circular plastic oil plant facilities and importing specialized equipment.   city oil field also becomes eligible for financing opportunities through international institutions, as well as cash grants, land-lease benefits in industrial complexes and government-backed research and development support. the company said the measures are expected to accelerate the growth of its circular plastic oil technology and the construction of new commercial plants.   lucarelli of pedco uae said his company decided to invest after visiting city oil field's commercial-scale facility in jeongeup, north jeolla province.   "we have followed city oil field's technology with great interest for several years," lucarelli said. "after an on-site inspection, we concluded that its circular plastic oil technology is proven and essential for adoption in the middle east. this is why we decided to invest, and we intend to continue making further investments in the company."   the investment marks a major milestone for city oil field, which said it enhances its credibility in both global capital markets and korea's domestic energy industry."     richard parris, executive chairman of sabien, said: "we congratulate cof on these momentous announcements. it marks a critical milestone in unlocking the commercial potential of the cof technology in our targeted uk and us markets. as a result, we are now significantly closer to generating potential future revenue from recycling waste plastic at volumes.   according to the united nations, more than 400 million tonnes of plastic is produced every year worldwide, half of which is designed to be used only once. of that, less than 10 per cent is recycled (see source). this is a large commercial and ecological need that sabien is positioning to address for the benefit of shareholders and the environment.   i look forward to visiting korea later this year to attend the official opening ceremony of the jeongeup wave facility and to progressing business development activities with our strategic investment and land partners."   for further information:   sabien technology group plc richard parris, executive chairman      +44 20 7993 3700 investors@sabien.com  allenby capital limited (nominated adviser) john depasquale / nick harriss / vivek bhardwaj     +44 203 328 5656   peterhouse capital limited (broker) duncan vasey / lucy williams    +44 207 469 0930   about sabien technology group plc  sabien technology group plc provides energy reduction solutions designed to help businesses achieve their sustainability goals, with a particular focus on reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.   the sabien technology group plc holds the green economy mark from the london stock exchange, recognising companies generating over 50% of their revenues from sustainable products and services.   website: www.sabien.com   this information is provided by rns, the news service of the london stock exchange. rns is approved by the financial conduct authority to act as a primary information provider in the united kingdom. terms and conditions relating to the use and distribution of this information may apply. for further information, please contact rns@lseg.com or visit www.rns.com.  rns may use your ip address to confirm compliance with the terms and conditions, to analyse how you engage with the information contained in this communication, and to share such analysis on an anonymised basis with others as part of our commercial services. for further information about how rns and the london stock exchange use the personal data you provide us, please see our privacy policy.   end   updbbbdgxggdgud return to news summary
