Multi-Billion-Dollar Program With Up To 400 Units Ordered to Modernize Crude Transport Infrastructure
TOMBALL, TX / ACCESS Newswire / June 20, 2025 / QS Energy, Inc. (OTCQB:QSEP), a leader in crude oil transport technology, has received a major order to deploy its Applied Oil Technology (AOT) across Southeast Asia and Africa. This marks a breakthrough moment for QS Energy and supports global efforts to modernize and decarbonize crude infrastructure.
DELIVERING ON A PROMISE OF INNOVATION AND SUCCESS
This initial order of five (5) AOT units launches a broader multi-phase deployment under a government-backed program with VIPS Petroleum. Valued at $25 million with the estimated expected full payment in this quarter, this order kicks off up to a $2 Billion 400-unit framework for South East Asia and Africa. The remaining 395 units will be delivered in milestone-based phases with a 50/25/25 payment structure, ensuring strong cash flow for QS Energy, commencing in Q3 and Q4 2025. AOT’s proven results helped open doors with energy ministries and national oil companies. This deal is made possible by VIPS Petroleum, QS Energy’s exclusive regional distributor contracted in 2024.
Cecil Bond Kyte, CEO of QS Energy, stated: “This order proves our technology’s readiness to transform crude transport. With VIPS and the support of ministries and operators, we’re setting a new global standard for efficiency and sustainability.”
THE TECHNOLOGY TRANSFORMING CRUDE TRANSPORT
Independently validated through peer-reviewed studies, field trials, and Temple University testing, AOT tackles one of the industry’s oldest problems-how to move oil more efficiently. Since the days of Rockefeller’s Standard Oil, the sector has battled viscosity, drag, and energy loss. AOT reduces viscosity by 10% or more using electric fields, lowering pump pressure and energy costs. Built for tough, continuous operation, each unit undergoes strict testing to ensure long-term performance.
MADE IN AMERICA, BUILT FOR THE WORLD
QS Energy proudly designs and manufactures AOT systems in the U.S., powered by American workers. Our partners include:
-
Industrial Screen and Maintenance, a manufacturer with 56+ years of experience
-
Precision Urethane, a family business – urethane leader for 55+ years
-
ReadyFlo, a turnkey ASME pressure vessel specialist
-
Forward-MFG, experts in custom electronics and sensors
Their dedication helped make this historic deal possible.
EXPANDING GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS AND FINANCING
This agreement positions Southeast Asia and Africa as leaders in modern crude transport and job creation. The success of this model is driving expansion talks with Australia, the Middle East, and other regions. QS Energy and VIPS Petroleum are finalizing additional deals to replicate this structure and broaden AOT deployment globally.
SECURE IMPLEMENTATION AND COMPLIANCE
QS Energy is committed to full transparency through regular updates and strict compliance with U.S., Southeast Asian, and African standards. The program is backed by milestone payments and top-tier financial guarantees, minimizing risk. Lessons from past deployments guide a robust execution plan to ensure every phase meets deadlines and quality benchmarks.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
QS Energy will earn a share of incremental barrels gained through AOT-enabled flow increases, creating long-term performance-based revenue.
LOOKING AHEAD
With deployment underway, QS Energy is focused on accelerating its role in the energy transition. AOT’s cost savings and environmental benefits position it for major global impact.
