Global Equity International Inc.: The Spark to Ignite the Financing of the VT Hydrocarbon Project in Jordan

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES--(Marketwired - Jun 30, 2016) - Global Equity International, Inc. (OTCQB: GEQU) and its fully owned subsidiary, Global Equity Partners Plc., a global business consultancy firm with offices in Dubai and London that consults to a diverse number of companies around the world, are pleased to announce that our client, VT Hydrocarbon Holdings (Pte.) Ltd. ("VTH"), has finally agreed on terms with the seller of the land and facility in Aqaba (Jordan) allowing the financial aspect of the transaction to significantly move ahead. Negotiations over the land and facility have been ongoing for many months. This agreement is the spark that will ignite a string of subsequent actions and contracts leading ultimately to the closing of the deal.

VTH will build, operate and manage hydrocarbon storage facilities in the Aqaba Special Economic Zone (Jordan) and expand to repeat the formula in other parts of the world in due course. The Company's main business focus will be to provide Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) storage as well as other wet fuel facilities and intends to directly respond to the 45% market deficit in Liquid Petroleum Gas supply being suffered in the local region, which includes the neighboring countries of Jordan.

Demand for Liquid Petroleum Gas is increasing yearly in the region for many reasons, mainly domestic consumption, feedstock for petrochemicals, and fuel for vessels. There is no effective storage for this demand. Storage is required to ensure steady supply, price stability and security. VTH's aim will be to provide the largest and most state of the art LPG facility and logistics to support the region.

Peter Smith, CEO of Global Equity International Inc., said: "We have been waiting a long time to get to this point and finally matters are moving ahead at a rapid pace. Historically, key decisions within the deal have taken weeks and months to arrive at, hence the reason for the various delays that this deal has suffered. Now we are moving into new territory on a daily basis with all parties exactly on the same page heading for the same conclusion. This will be a transaction we will be delighted to put the finishing touches to in the very near term."
