Eco-Stim Energy Solutions Secures Exclusive Rights for Key "Field Management" Technology


HOUSTON, May 6, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eco-Stim Energy Solutions, Inc. ("EcoStim" or "the Company") (OTCQB:ESES) announced today that it has executed an exclusivity agreement with Fotech Oil & Gas Solutions, Inc. "Fotech" whereby the Company obtained exclusive rights to market, sell, utilize, and distribute in Argentina and Mexico Fotech's fiber optic recording system. These recording systems are used in the Company's field management operations to diagnose well integrity, flow properties and to monitor down-hole activity including the well stimulation process. The initial recording systems are expected to be delivered in the second quarter of 2014 and will be used to perform field management services for customers requesting down-hole well diagnostics.  

EcoStim President and CEO Chris Boswell stated, "Following EcoStim's successful field management project earlier this year in which the company was able to precisely detect oil and gas production for its clients in several low flow wells located in the Vaca Muerta formation, we made a strategic decision to move forward with the full implementation of our field management business plan. In that connection, we have committed management time and capital to secure our market position and we believe Fotech's proprietary technology is a key component in our efforts to help our customers better understand these emerging shale reservoirs. We continue to believe that by combining the latest pressure-pumping and completion techniques with predictive geophysical and geometric tools, down-hole diagnostic tools and our preferred sliding sleeve technology, our proprietary "field management system" can help drive a more efficient and eco-friendly process to developing unconventional resources."
