Equipment Marketing and Sale Service

We perform Surplus Management & Asset Recovery Services.

Let's recover your stored and idle investments efficiently. As long as it is not obsolete, your surplus equipment represents money, and perhaps a lot of money! Our services add value to your surplus equipment.

There are mainly two ways of how we can work for you:

1. Outsource the work to Quipbrokers based on a Brokerage Contract:
Quipbrokers can be your agent / broker selling your surplus equipment. This service is based on that the equipment owner is signing a standard brokerage agreement with Quipbrokers that provides us with an exclusive right to sell the equipment. In the contract we will agree to a fixed commission of the sales price, as well as the other terms and conditions.

We take care of the complete process starting with overviewing, listing equipment in www.quipbase.com, quotations to customers, negotiations, inspections and paperwork. If required we also organize transport to the new owner. This service is of no cost to you until the equipment is sold (i.e. no sale, no cost). When equipment is sold we will charge the agreed commission of the sales price. Our goal will thus be the same as your goal: - to obtain the best price possible as quickly as possible.

Our customers are very pleased with the fact that they don't receive any consultants free from Quipbrokers even if we have used a lot of time and efforts trying to sell their surplus equipment without success. What our customers receive is money when their surplus equipment is sold, and peace in mind if the final result is that some of the surplus equipment need to be scrapped because it is obsolete and there is no market for it.


2. Without any Contract:
Alternatively you may simply list your surplus equipment in www.quipbase.com without any cost or further commitments to you before Quipbrokers find a buyer for the equipment. By registering your surplus equipment in www.quipbase.com through our customer portal, or by sending equipment lists with description to us, we can also include your equipment in our general marketing activities. Quipbrokers will be the listed contact and receive any request for quotations from potential customers, but we do not claim any exclusive sales rights from you. Quipbrokers will simply purchase the equipment for the price quoted from you, and sell it on to the buyer. The sales procedure for you will be exactly the same as selling to any of your other regular customers.

We may also consider purchasing your equipment to our own stock before we have found a buyer. A lot of the equipment currently listed in www.quipbase.com is actually from our own equipment stock.

For your surplus equipment registered in www.quipbase.com we are depending on you to inform us of any changes in status. e.g. if you have sold the equipment.


Storage facilities:
We can also offer storage facilities included in a brokerage contract in most of the major oilfield cities in the world. This will be an advantage in order to be able to preserve equipment properly and to give easy access for inspection and review in a marketing period. Maybe more important for you is that you may find other use for your own yard or may reduce your lease costs. Storage service may also be included in agreed commission and therefore will be of no cost until the equipment is sold.

The storage facilities shown below are located at Aagotnes near Bergen, Norway. We have about 5000 m2 outdoor storage area and 1125 m2 indoor storage area available here.

How do I start?
First step is to send us an overview of your surplus equipment so we can make a quick appraisal of the market value. This will be performed without any cost or further commitments to you. We will need you to provide us with a list of your surplus equipment with outline specifications sent to us preferable by email. If we think we can recover your assets efficiently, we will provide a standard brokerage agreement with our terms and conditions for your perusal. Contact us

We also recommend that you check out www.quipbase.com "Equipment wanted" to see if someone is looking for equipment you have for sale.
