We are encouraged by both domestic and international opportunities. In October, we completed laboratory testing at Temple University on crude oil samples provided by a prospective customer from the Middle East, and are now preparing to run laboratory tests on a crude oil sample recently provided by a U.S. midstream oil company. Shannon Rasmussen, our VP of Engineering, and I will be traveling in early November to meet with 7-8 prospective customers in three South American countries that transport heavy crudes and are highly reliant on naphtha, a very expensive source of diluent. In Peru and Ecuador, we will be visiting two on-site oilfield operations performing feasibility studies. We are also advancing our discussions with companies in Europe and China.
Key to accelerated market adoption is our planned roll-out of a hybrid lease/eDiluent service model, designed to reduce customer cost-of-deployment, while providing long-term recurring revenues for the Company. We recognize that an equipment lease strategy comes with increased capital requirements. This was one of the primary reasons for asking our shareholders to authorize the issuance of preferred stock. Our goal now is to use this combined preferred/common structure to fund our final push into the commercial markets while minimizing shareholder dilution. In particular, we would like to use preferred shares to provide initiative-based funding, such as building equipment to be leased into the market. We have started conversations with institutional investors and others to fund QS Energy's market strategy moving forward, and to build up inventory to deploy in the field, domestically and internationally.
We look forward to seeing the AOT operating in the field worldwide, solving many of the problems that oil pipeline operators face today. In closing I would like to thank you all once again for your belief in myself, my team, and the Company and I look forward to bringing you all definitive news in the near future.
