ON APPLICATION 050088296
REF: BLUE LANTERN GUIDEBOOK 2006
1. This is an Action Request. See paragraphs 2-4.
2. The Department's Office of Defense Trade Controls
Compliance (PM/DTCC) requests post's assistance in conducting
a pre-license check on application 050088296 for the export
of gyroscopes to Malaysia. Post is requested to complete
this Blue Lantern check within 30 days. Lack of response to
a Blue Lantern check will affect pending and future
applications involving parties to this license.
3. Reason for request: unfamiliar end-user. Foreign end-user
OROGENIC Resources Sdn Bhd has not appeared on any previous
license applications, and its bona fides have never been
verified by a Blue Lantern check. Post should make
appropriate inquiries to verify the bona fides of Orogenic
Resources Sdn Bhd, confirm that the company is in the gas and
oil survey business, and assess the risk of diversion. The
following questions are provided as suggested guidance:
--What is the nature of OROGENIC Resource's business?
--When was the company established and who are its principals?
--Did the company order the exact type and quantity of items
listed on this application? Does the company have proper
supporting documentation for this proposed transaction?
--Will the company be handling or storing the items listed on
the application? If so, does it have secure facilities and
proper accounting and security procedures for handling these
sensitive USML items?
--The application's supporting documentation states that
OROGENIC Resources leases out System Entwicklungs
Gesellschaft mbH's bore hole survey systems to various oil
exploration companies but always retains ownership and
control of systems. How exactly does OROGENIC plan to
accomplish this? Will an OROGENIC representative be in
possession of the bore hole survey systems at all times, or
will the lessees occasionally have control over the units?
--What types of organizations are among OROGENIC Resource's
typical customers and where are the customers located?
--Does the company understand the restrictions on United
States Munitions List (USML) items, especially the
prohibition against unauthorized re-transfers and re-exports?
4. Department requests that post conduct a site visit to the
company in order to provide Department with an assessment of
its business operations and on-site security. If a site
visit is not possible, please inform PM/DTCC case officer.
Finally, post is asked to assess whether the company appears
to be a reliable recipient of USML items. End action.
5. For background, the following details of the license in
question are provided:
