AI summary

What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

Vivakor's VST subsidiary has signed 12-month crude oil deals totaling 2.4 million barrels annually, starting September 1, 2026. The arrangement signals recurring volume growth and positions Vivakor near $2 billion in annualized commercial activity, though gross profit will be a small share as VST operates as an intermediary.
