PEMEX Field Tests With Grifco International
Grifco International, Inc. , a
provider of oil and gas services equipment to the worldwide oil and gas
industry, announces the results from a series of tests completed with
PEMEX, the National Petroleum Company of Mexico.
PEMEX is the 3rd largest producer of crude oil in the world, the 8th
largest integrated oil company in the world, and a key supplier of crude
oil to the US market. PEMEX recently completed testing in a joint exercise
with Grifco International, Inc. utilizing the "Silver Hawg," a corrosion
inhibitor tool designed to inhibit the formation of solid paraffin and
scale particles in oil wells.
PEMEX has made the following conclusion based on the test.
1. Prior to installation of the "Silver Hawg" corrosion inhibitor tool,
well production was diminishing over time.
2. Prior to "Silver Hawg" implementation, well production was maintained
with hot oil and chemical treatments. Both processes have ceased due to
the effectiveness of "Silver Hawg."
3. Production increased in the test wells (increasing 126 barrels per day).
4. Production costs decreased with use of "Silver Hawg."
5. "Silver Hawg" tool gives the well better fluid characteristics and
optimized production for gas injector wells (Gas lifts are another means
to increase fluid flow from well bore).
Based on these results, PEMEX has issued Grifco International, Inc. (via
the Grifco agent in Mexico) an immediate contract for additional wells in
the region. Pending favorable review of the larger installment, Grifco
International will prepare to supply up to 300 more wells, while awaiting a
third contract installation for the northern district of Mexico. The
contracts with PEMEX will generate approximately $2.5 million. Updates on
these wells and contracts will be released as information becomes
available.
The favorable Silver Hawg field-testing with PEMEX portends an opportunity
for Grifco International to further its presence in Mexico while seeking
deeper inroads into Latin and South America. PEMEX is the largest company
in Mexico with 2003 revenue of $57 billion and possesses strong
relationships with major oil companies worldwide. Grifco places a premium
on pursuing and developing working relationships with National Oil
companies and their governments.
