CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - July 15, 2013) -

(NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA)

Canadian Oilfield Solutions Corp. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:OTS) is pleased to provide a corporate and operational update:

The Corporation is pleased to announce that the second major construction project in Mexico has recently been completed both under budget and ahead of schedule, and two additional major projects have been awarded for which the Corporation will provide project management and finance services. The projects, to be run concurrently, are expected to commence in Q3 with approximate timelines of 150 days to completion and a combined budget of approximately USD $11 million. The Corporation earns a financing fee and a share in any profits as its revenue from the projects. Multiple smaller scope construction projects have also been completed in 2013.

The Corporation continues to pursue the sale and installation of flexible pipe in Mexico. One project is scheduled for Q3 with a new client, and additional sales and installations are anticipated through Q4. The scope of work is expected to be a mix of 4" and 6" pipe with lengths under 2 km. The Bitzalcobo pipe project, which began in Q3 2011 as a test project to investigate the installation capabilities of flexible pipe over various terrain, has evolved into a revenue-generating project and is on its final phase with completion expected in late July 2013. The success of the project validates the wide range of challenging terrain that can be crossed using FlexSteel™ products.

The submersible pump business continues to make significant improvements with a focus on growth and diversification. In the Oil & Gas industry, the Corporation has added Electric Submersible Progressive Cavity Pumps ("ESPCP") to its product line, increasing the number of well types that can be serviced. In the industries of mining, agriculture and municipal/industrial water, the Corporation continues to grow its distribution network of submersible motors, including its first sales into the Canadian mining market.

The Corporation is also pleased to announce that as of June 7, 2013, Scott Hamilton has been appointed Corporate Secretary in addition to his role as Chief Financial Officer. To assist Mr. Hamilton in his duties the Corporation has engaged CAS Corporate Governance Services, a Calgary based firm with 30 years of administration experience.

Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canadian Oilfield Solutions Corp. provides an array of specialized products and services that are used in the production of oil and gas reserves.
