Business Description

Earn Steady Income from a Strategic Refinery Asset

Stake your claim in America’s energy future. Invest in Foreland Refining Corp., owner and operator of Eagle Springs, Nevada’s only producing oil refinery. Located near the historic Railroad Valley, the basin where Nevada’s oil story began, Foreland delivers the fuels that keep the West running. It’s a proven, revenue-generating operation with long-standing customers.

Now, for the first time, investors can participate directly in that production by investing in a cash-return opportunity tied to real barrels, not hypothetical projections.

Problem

A Regional Crisis Creates a Local Advantage

Historically, Nevada has relied on California for as much as 88% of its transportation fuel supply. But with that supply chain under pressure, the region now faces rising fuel costs and increasing supply risks.

What’s Driving the Opportunity?

  • California refineries are shutting down, cutting capacity by 21%
  • 63% of California’s crude is imported and vulnerable to global shocks
  • EVs are growing, but can’t fill the gap yet
  • Gas-powered vehicles are still dominant, especially in construction, mining, and commercial use

Regional demand remains strong, and Foreland is ready to step in and supply it. As one of the only active refining operations in the region, Foreland turns this challenge into a strategic advantage.

That means real output, real revenue, and income-linked returns for investors.

Solution

Meet Foreland: Built to Scale. Ready Now.

Foreland produces the products that help keep the Western U.S. moving by delivering essential energy products directly to major regional buyers. This reduces costly transport, limits dependence on California’s unstable supply, and supports scalable, high-margin growth.

Foreland isn’t just a refinery. It’s energy infrastructure that pays, and a blueprint for local energy independence in action.

  • • Diesel for trucks and heavy equipment
  • • Asphalt for roads and infrastructure
  • • VGO for industrial and refining (used in gasoline and aviation fuel)
  • Naphtha for blending and specialty fuels

Business Model

Powering Profit and Planet: Foreland’s Winning Strategy

At its core, Foreland operates on a straightforward model: we refine fuel, we sell it regionally, and we generate revenue from every barrel. That’s what makes our investment structure so reliable.

But Foreland is more than just a refinery. It’s part of a larger story. As a subsidiary of Sky Quarry, we are part of a vertically integrated, forward-looking energy platform that combines traditional fuel production with sustainable innovation.

We’re already producing high-demand petroleum products, and we’re preparing to expand by refining recycled heavy oil sourced from asphalt shingles in Utah. It’s a smart, scalable way to meet demand, reduce waste, and create new value from old materials.

Market Projection

Fueling the New Gold Rush in Railroad Valley

Nevada’s lithium boom is more than a headline. With billions flowing into resource development, it is triggering a modern industrial surge. Just like in the original Gold Rush, the strongest opportunities are often found in supplying the rush, not chasing it.

Foreland Refining Corp. operates in Ely, Nevada, a region with a long history of oil, minerals, and energy production. Today, that legacy continues with a new wave of energy materials like lithium. Our refinery is already supplying the diesel, asphalt, and specialty fuels that power the trucks, drills, and infrastructure supporting this growth.

Competition

Outpacing the Giants: Foreland’s Edge in a Crowded Field

The Western U.S. fuel market is dominated by aging California giants. These legacy refiners face shutdowns, rising costs, and mounting regulatory pressure, leaving the region increasingly vulnerable to supply disruptions.

As they struggle to keep up with demand, Foreland is stepping in with a smarter, locally anchored solution. Our location in the heart of Nevada’s energy corridor puts us in a prime position to supply the fuels that power the lithium boom, major infrastructure projects, and the heavy transport sector.

We are not chasing trends. We are serving the real economy with real product.

Traction & Customers

Real Operations. Real Revenue. Now Open to Investors.

This isn’t a startup story. It’s a revenue-generating refinery with over 20 years of operations, now offering income-based returns to everyday investors.

Operating for 20+ years near Ely, Nevada
Produces diesel, asphalt, vacuum gas oil, and naphtha
Current permitted capacity: 800,000 barrels/year*
Serving key Western markets: Southern California, Nevada, Utah, Idaho
Supplying major regional buyers

*Foreland expects to reach peak level during periods of high seasonal demand with production rising in the summer and easing back in winter. At full capacity, this translates to an annualized peak rate of 800,000 barrels, though actual output will vary seasonally.

Investors

Bottom Line: The Investment That Pays and Powers

This is more than just an income opportunity. It’s a chance to be part of something that matters. By participating in this offering, you’re helping strengthen regional fuel security, support sustainable innovation, and power the industries driving the Western U.S. economy.

And while you’re making a difference, you’re also earning. With a fixed 10% annual interest, a royalty tied to actual barrels refined and sold, and a built-in five-year exit, Foreland offers investors a clear, cash-return model.

Like the suppliers of the original Gold Rush and today’s armchair oilman, you’re not chasing hype. You’re backing the infrastructure that fuels it — earning from a refinery already in production. No drilling wild wells. Just income from barrels refined and sold into real markets.
