Petroteq Reports Results From Independent Evaluation Report of Oil Resources on Its Asphalt Ridge Leases

08.03.2018  |  GlobeNewswire

STUDIO CITY, CA, March 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Petroteq Energy Inc. (“Petroteq” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PQE; OTCQX: PQEFF; Frankfurt: A2DYWC), a company focused on the development and implementation of proprietary technologies for the energy industry, today announced the filing of its third party independent detailed assay and testing resource evaluation report. The Company engaged Energy Labs of Casper, Wyoming to conduct an independent resource evaluation report on the oil that has been extracted from Petroteq's leases along Asphalt Ridge, Utah. The results of the Energy Labs assay on the oils from Petroteq's oil sands along Asphalt Ridge are consistent with the numerous studies performed on these oils by both academic institutions and major oil companies. The assay confirms that the quality of this oil is ideal for diesel fuel and has attributes attractive to oil refineries.

Mr. Blyumkin, chairman of Petroteq, said, “As we continue to make progress with the completion of our plant construction and the signing of our oil offtake agreement, we are extremely pleased with this report that confirms the quality of our oil sands assets. Oil with high levels of heavy metals has a negative impact on the life of the catalysts in oil refineries. Our oil contains low levels of asphaltenes and very low metal levels making it attractive to oil refineries.”

The Asphalt Ridge oil contains a high percentage of hydrocarbons that are diesel range organics (C-10 to C-28) making this oil an ideal oil for diesel fuel. The tight shale plays that are an increasingly important source of domestic oil production typically have higher concentration of hydrocarbons in the gasoline range organics (C-6 to C-10), so are not as readily refined into diesel as they are gasoline. The disproportionate production of very light oils in the USA as opposed to heavier oils, may result in upward pricing pressures on heavy oils if this trend continues.

The Asphalt Ridge oil has very low sulfur content (0.5% and less weight percent) which is ideal for making ultra low sulfur diesel. Much higher sulfur contents are found in the oil sands in Canada, where extra money needs to be spent to remove the sulfur before it can be refined into a finished petroleum product. We do not expect to find such economic issues in the Asphalt Ridge oils. Refineries prefer as low sulfur content as possible. The Asphalt Ridge oil has relatively higher level of aromatic components, which increase the quality of the oil the products that can be produced from this oil.
