February 8, 2023. Quantum Fuel Systems has been selected by Permian Global, Inc. d/b/a CORE Automated Fueling Solutions (CORE), to deliver six of its industry-leading virtual pipeline trailers for natural gas. The trailers will be delivered to CORE, a leading CNG provider in West Texas, in Q3 2023.
With this contract, Quantum will provide CORE with its VPLite45/40 trailers, which have an industry-leading gaseous capacity of approximately 472,000 standard cubic feet and weigh less than 59,000 pounds fully loaded. The trailers are certified for use in the U.S. and are the leading choice for customers needing a smaller, lighter trailer that is easily maneuvered in tight areas. CORE will utilize the trailers in their work with Manticore Fuels, LLC (Manticore Fuels), an affiliate company that is one of largest frac fuel providers in the West Texas market.
“We are excited to continue and expand our relationship with CORE and Manticore in 2023,” said Steve Toelke, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Infrastructure at Quantum. “It’s always an honor to be a part of a customer’s growth and success. Having CORE repeatedly select our trailers to support their extensive mobile, low carbon energy distribution fleet shows the true value of our products and our commitment to customers.”
“CORE is expanding to meet the burgeoning needs of our customers for reliable, safe, and lower carbon energy,” said Brent Bruner, Senior Vice President, Natural Gas and Manufacturing at CORE. “Our two-year relationship with Quantum has enabled us to build one of the largest fleets in West Texas that can deliver compressed natural gas to our customers in the region. The additional Quantum VPLite45/40 trailers will further increase the capacity of our network to ensure that our oil and gas, and industrial customers in West Texas receive a safe, secure supply of low carbon energy they can depend on.”
