About Greka Engineering & Technology
Greka Engineering & Technology Ltd., (AIM; GEL) was demerged from Green Dragon Gas Ltd. (AIM; GDG) ("Green Dragon Gas") via a dividend in specie and was admitted to trading on AIM in September 2013.
Greka Engineering offers turnkey solutions to over 100 upstream, midstream and downstream gas suppliers. The Company's technologies include Compressed Natural Gas/Liquefied Natural Gas (CNG/LNG) compressor equipment, CNG retail dispenser equipment and CBM wellhead extraction technologies. The Company also supplies proprietary Integrated Circuit Card Point of Sale (ICC POS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software and hardware solutions for the remote management of transmission systems, power facilities, vehicle management and retail services.
In addition, the Company invests in, operates and maintains wholly owned assets for its customers in return for service contracts based on the volume management.
The Company has historically completed several Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Management (EPCM) contracts including the design, construction and management of gas gathering systems, a gas pipeline in Shanxi Province to the China West-East pipeline, the installation and commissioning of a 10MW gas-fired power facility in the Shanxi province and the construction of CNG retail stations.
Chairman's Statement
In 2014, Greka Engineering completed its first full-year operation as an independent quoted company on AIM following its demerger from Green Dragon Gas. The Company's performance improved from enhanced equipment utilization and customer expansion. Revenue increased 41% to US$5.2m and losses decreased to US$1.7m, a 12% reduction compared to the prior year.
High quality infrastructure assets (including coal bed methane field compressors, pipeline gathering systems and an Integrated Production Facility (IPF) form the core assets of the Group) provided reliable and increasing revenue for the Company. As highlighted in the interim report, the Company successfully renegotiated its gas gathering system usage, power sales and compression fees with its key client Green Dragon Gas. The renegotiated gas processing fee and power price provided for a 274% increase to gas process revenue over the previous year and power sales revenue increased by 185%.
The Company signed a three-year power sales contract with Jiaqin Agriculture which became our third client for power and the first unaffiliated client. Furthermore, we signed a Power Line Construction Agreement with CUCBM, a CNOOC subsidiary, under which we successfully built power lines connecting one of its valve groups to supply nine wells to our power grid. This initial valve group is to serve as a pilot to CUCBM on the benefits of connecting its remaining fourteen valve groups into our infrastructure. The pricing for power sales is consistent across all four clients.
In accordance with our strategy to be a technology leader within the unconventional gas market, product development continued. The Company made significant advances in the pipe network and power grid technology through the research and development of a micro casing pressure production pump. This pump can potentially increase gas production of a single gas well by over 20% compared to conventional technology and has been successfully deployed on three wells on a trial basis. We will evaluate launching the product on the basis of the performance during the coming year. Additionally, leveraging on the successful development of the LNG dispensers, the Company embarked on the development of C/LNG pump skids which provide mobility to an end user on its C/LNG dispensing capability. We expect to conclude on the market potential of this new product during the course of this year.
Looking forward to the coming year, we expect our continued growth to be diversified with increasing IPF utilization, rising power sales to all four clients, expanding power grid to CUCBM, reinitiated SCADA sales and stable dispenser sales within our existing China market.
Finally, I would like to thank the diligent management team that leads our hundred employees across a diversified business encompassing 24/7 infrastructure operations within the IPF, manufacturing products for gas distribution as well as continued technology development maintaining a leading edge within our niche unconventional gas market.

Abridged notes to the financial information for the year ended 31 December 2014
1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union, that are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out in the Group's full annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2014.
2. REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group determines its operating segments based on reports reviewed by the chief operating decision-makers ("CODMs") which are also used to make strategic decisions.
The Group reports its operations as two reportable segments: gas equipment sales and the provision of contract infrastructure services in PRC. The division of the engineering and technology operations into two reportable segments is reflective of how the CODMs manage the business.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of principal accounting policies. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on revenues from external customers and segmental profits.

7. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE / DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The strategy of Greka Engineering is to develop its engineering and technology operations. In order to focus on the delivery of this strategy, prior to the demerger from Green Dragon Gas Ltd, during 2012 one of the Company's subsidiaries agreed a proposal to sell its non-core transportation operations to subsidiaries being retained within the Green Dragon Gas Ltd group following the demerger. Subsequently, it entered a legal agreement with Green Dragon Gas Limited on 1 July 2013 to dispose of motor vehicles and equipment for $1,753,357 of cash consideration in line with the previously agreed proposals. Notwithstanding the period that has elapsed between meeting the requirements for classification as assets held for sale, the Group remains committed to the disposal and expects it completion in due course. The completion of the transaction is subject to obtaining necessary legislative approvals and those approvals are progressing.
The following are the totals for the major classes of assets relating to Greka Engineering's transportation operation at the end of the reporting period:
2014 2013 US$'000 US$'000 Motor vehicles 1,733 1,733 Fixtures, fittings and equipment 17 17 Plant and machinery 3 3 ---------------------------------- ------------------------ ------------------------ 1,753 1,753 ---------------------------------- ------------------------ ------------------------
