“Positioning the Company to Meet Rising Regional Demand” April 29, 2025 08:31 ET | Source: Sky Quarry Inc WOODS CROSS, Utah, April 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sky Quarry Inc. (NASDAQ: SKYQ) (“Sky Quarry” or the “Company”), an integrated energy solutions company committed to revolutionizing the waste asphalt shingle recycling industry, today announced it has engaged Kevin Arrington of TAR360 as a strategic consultant. Arrington will work closely with the Sky Quarry team to accelerate the company’s growth trajectory, optimize internal processes, and support execution across key operational initiatives. The consulting engagement will focus on a production scale-up strategy at the Company’s Foreland Refinery, Nevada’s only operational crude oil refinery. The initiative includes optimizing existing infrastructure and implementing a clear roadmap to initially increase output by up to 125%, from 20,000 to 45,000 barrels per month, and ultimately by up to 300% to 80,000 barrels per month. By improving distillation and refracturing processes at the Foreland Refinery, Sky Quarry is driving greater refining efficiency and accelerating the conversion of recycled liquid asphalt from waste shingles into blended, sustainably produced fuels and other high-value materials. The Company believes that this initiative will reinforce its position as a next-generation energy provider and will enhance its ability to meet rising regional demand, particularly as California faces ongoing fuel supply constraints driven by refinery closures and tightening environmental regulations. “As we scale Sky Quarry into a fully integrated waste-to-energy platform, it’s critical that our internal systems evolve with our growth,” said David Sealock, CEO of Sky Quarry. “Kevin Arrington and TAR360 bring a proven track record of transforming complex operations into high-performance systems, delivering measurable results for companies like BP, Shell, and Boeing.

At the same time, he will evaluate and upgrade the Company’s internal reporting systems, giving the Board and executive leadership better access to timely, decision-ready information to support strategic oversight and improve transparency.
