Canadian Oilfield Solutions Corp.: Exclusive Distribution Agreement for Electric Submersible Linear Motor


CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Dec. 30, 2013) -

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Canadian Oilfield Solutions Corp. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:OTS) announces that it has finalized a distribution agreement with Shenzhen Han's Motor S&T Co., Ltd. of China for its Electric Submersible Linear Motor (the "Motor"). The agreement appoints the Corporation as the exclusive distributor to distribute, market, sell, and supply the Motor within Canada and Mexico as well as to Petroleum Development Oman ("PDO") in Oman. The agreement has an initial term of one year and is renewable for any mutually agreed upon term. Renewals will be based on sales volumes, product performance, and market conditions.

The Motor duplicates the movement of a rod pump without the pump jack or rod string. All moving parts are contained within the motor housing, eliminating the traditional problem of wear between the rod and tubing. In horizontal wells, the Corporation believes that the Motor will provide clients with a solution to current rod wear and rod failure problems. The motor will be capable of remote monitoring and able to be adjusted for stroke and pumping speed. In addition, the motor is mechanically efficient and is anticipated to significantly reduce the operating costs over traditional pump jack installations.

Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canadian Oilfield Solutions Corp. provides an array of specialized products and services that are used in the energy, mining, and industrial & agricultural water industries.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
