EDMONTON, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/28/16 -- Wavefront Technology Solutions Inc. (Wavefront or the Company) (TSX VENTURE: WEE)(OTCQX: WFTSF) a global leader in the advancement of fluid injection technology for oil and gas well stimulation and improved/enhanced oil recovery is pleased to provide an update on the Company's Middle East Powerwave initiatives.
The Company has been executing a strategy in the Middle East to position Powerwave, and more specifically, Wavefront's Powerwave custom stimulation methodology as a technique of choice for oil and gas well stimulation. The targets of this strategy have been sovereign and private oil companies.
Unique to the industry, Wavefront's custom stimulation methodology provides a model of Powerwave pulsing efficiency verses conventional injection; a detailed stimulation program based on the model; and the downhole proprietary tools to execute the work. Oil producer financial benefits of the Powerwave custom stimulation methodology include: (1) Potential for significant cost savings due to reduced or eliminated volumes of specialty chemicals used to control conventional injection; (2) Because more volume of the reservoir is being treated the time between stimulations may be increased thereby reducing on-going stimulation costs. (3) Better overall post-stimulation performance.
The Company's focused strategy in the Middle East coupled with positive Powerwave outcomes has recently resulted in Powerwave being approved for commercial use in the State of Kuwait and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Company may recognize revenues year-to-date for fiscal 2016 related to 21 well stimulations in the Middle East market.
"We are very pleased with developments in the Middle East and remain very optimistic about the Company's long-term growth potential in the region," said Wavefront President and CEO Brett Davidson.
"Continuing the Company's strategy of opening markets in the Middle East, we are currently working towards finalizing contractual terms for Powerwave trials in the Kingdom of Bahrain; Egypt; and United Arab Emirates," said Davidson.
