**TOMBALL, TX, June 20, 2025** – QS Energy, Inc. (OTCQB:QSEP), a leader in crude oil transport technology, has secured a significant order to implement its Applied Oil Technology (AOT) across Southeast Asia and Africa. This represents a pivotal advancement for QS Energy, aligning with global initiatives to modernize and decarbonize crude infrastructure.

### Delivering on a Promise of Innovation and Success

The initial order comprises five (5) AOT units, marking the beginning of a broader multi-phase deployment under a government-supported program with VIPS Petroleum. This order, valued at **$25 million**, is expected to be fully paid within this quarter and initiates a potential **$2 billion** framework for the deployment of up to **400 units** in Southeast Asia and Africa. The remaining **395 units** will be delivered in milestone-based phases, utilizing a **50/25/25 payment structure** to ensure robust cash flow for QS Energy, starting in Q3 and Q4 of 2025. The successful results of AOT have facilitated connections with energy ministries and national oil companies. VIPS Petroleum, QS Energy’s exclusive regional distributor contracted in 2024, has made this agreement possible.

Cecil Bond Kyte, CEO of QS Energy, remarked, “This order demonstrates our technology’s readiness to revolutionize crude transport. Together with VIPS and the backing of ministries and operators, we are establishing a new global benchmark for efficiency and sustainability.”

### The Technology Transforming Crude Transport

AOT has been independently validated through peer-reviewed studies, field trials, and testing at Temple University. It addresses one of the industry’s longstanding challenges: improving the efficiency of oil transportation. Historically, the sector has struggled with viscosity, drag, and energy loss since the era of Rockefeller’s Standard Oil. AOT effectively reduces viscosity by **10% or more** by employing electric fields, resulting in decreased pump pressure and energy costs. Designed for continuous operation, each unit undergoes rigorous testing to ensure enduring performance.

### Made in America, Built for the World

QS Energy takes pride in designing and manufacturing AOT systems in the United States, supported by American labor. Our partners include:
– **Industrial Screen and Maintenance**: A manufacturer with over **56 years** of experience
– **Precision Urethane**: A family-owned business and leader in urethane for over **55 years**
– **ReadyFlo**: A specialist in turnkey ASME pressure vessels
– **Forward-MFG**: Experts in custom electronics and sensors

Their commitment has been instrumental in facilitating this landmark agreement.

### Expanding Global Partnerships and Financing

This agreement positions Southeast Asia and Africa at the forefront of modern crude transport and job creation. The success of this model is propelling expansion discussions with Australia, the Middle East, and other regions. QS Energy and VIPS Petroleum are finalizing additional deals to replicate this structure and enhance AOT deployment globally.

### Secure Implementation and Compliance

QS Energy is dedicated to maintaining full transparency through regular updates and strict adherence to U.S., Southeast Asian, and African standards. The program is supported by milestone payments and premium financial guarantees, minimizing risk. Insights gained from previous deployments inform a comprehensive execution plan to ensure that every phase meets deadlines and quality standards.

### Other Considerations

QS Energy will benefit from a share of the incremental barrels produced through AOT-enabled flow increases, generating long-term performance-based revenue.

### Looking Ahead

With deployment in progress, QS Energy is committed to accelerating its impact in the energy transition. The cost savings and environmental advantages offered by AOT position it for significant global influence.
