Petroteq Executes LOI for License Agreements

SHERMAN OAKS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 4, 2022 / Petroteq Energy Inc. ("Petroteq" or the "Company") ‎‎(TSXV:PQE)(OTC PINK:PQEFF)(FSE:PQCF), ‎an oil company focused on the development and ‎implementation of its proprietary oil sands extraction and remediation technologies, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding letter of intent dated August 2, 2022 (the "LOI") ‎with Netoil Inc. ("Netoil"), an oil company led by Mr. Roger Tamraz, an experienced ‎hands-on operator and investor in the oil & gas industry.‎

Netoil and its team has more than 50 years of experience in creating, ‎structuring and implementing major international projects in the fields of ‎energy such as oil and gas fields and blocks, oil and gas pipelines, oil refineries, ‎gas stations and petrochemical plants.‎ For more information about Netoil kindly visit www.netoilinc.com.

Netoil contacted Petroteq to inquire about its innovative, cost-‎effective and efficient oil extraction and recovery technology.

Mr. Tamraz, Chairman of Netoil, commented, "The developments in energy ‎policy, the search for alternative sources of oil, its extraction, less risky ‎transportation routes, and the realization by many countries of the need to ‎become energy independent of certain regions, have created the conditions for ‎an economically viable and environmentally friendly technology such as ‎Petroteq's Clean Oil Recovery Technology (CORT)."

Netoil is in the process of establishing a special purpose investment vehicle focusing on alternative production methods within the oil and gas industry, alognside carbon offsetting technologies.

Pursuant to the LOI, subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive ‎license agreements, Netoil would be granted two licenses for Petroteq's CORT for use in Iraq and ‎Libya. The consideration for each license has been agreed to USD 6,000,000 and a five ‎percent (5%) royalty fee of the net production revenue. In addition, a minimum annual fee has been agreed to USD 1,000,000 until the region is producing.

"We are honored and excited about the opportunity of working together with ‎Netoil and Mr. Roger Tamraz who has enjoyed an extensive ‎career in the oil industry, resulting in an amazing network of related ‎businesses and opportunities," ‎stated Vladimir Podlipskiy, PhD, Petroteq's Chief Technology Officer and Interim Chief Executive ‎Officer.

Additionally, the company would like to announce that qualified candidates for the position of CEO & CFO were identified by Petroteq and approved by TSX Venture Exchange. Petroteq is currently negotiating the employment agreement with the identified candidates. Once the terms of the agreement are finalized, the next step will be to get approval from Petroteq's potential buyer, Viston United Swiss AG.

About Petroteq Energy Inc.‎

Petroteq is a clean technology company focused on the development, implementation, and licensing of a ‎patented, environmentally safe and sustainable technology for the extraction and reclamation of heavy oil and ‎bitumen from oil sands and mineable oil deposits. The versatile technology can be applied to both water-wet ‎deposits and oil-wet deposits - outputting high-quality oil and clean sand.‎

Petroteq believes that its technology can produce a relatively sweet heavy crude oil from deposits of oil sands ‎at Asphalt Ridge without requiring the use of water, and therefore without generating wastewater which would ‎otherwise require the use of other treatment or disposal facilities which could be harmful to the environment. ‎Petroteq's process is intended to be a more environmentally friendly extraction technology that leaves clean ‎residual sand that can be sold or returned to the environment, without the use of tailings ponds or further ‎remediation.‎ For more information, visit www.petroteq.energy.‎

Completion of the transactions contemplated by the LOI are subject to, amongst other things, negotiation and execution of ‎definitive license agreements, and applicable ‎director, shareholder ‎and regulatory approvals.

Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX ‎Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.‎
