HOUSTON, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- HII Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), symbolOTCBB: HIIT, an oilfield services company located in Houston, Texas, with operations in Texas and Oklahoma, today announced a major purchase of water transfer related equipment for use in its AES oilfield frac-related water transfer services division.

On November 8, 2012, the Company purchased over a half million dollars of assets, including 10+ miles of above ground high-volume water transfer pipe, numerous trucks, trailers, manifolds, road crossings, fittings and related equipment.
