CALGARY, March 24, 2020 /CNW/ - SECURE Energy Services Inc. ("SECURE" or the "Corporation") (TSX – SES) announced today an operational and corporate update on the actions SECURE is taking in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the rapid decline in global energy prices.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, SECURE's action plan is focused on protecting the health of its employees, families, communities and other stakeholders. Safety is the Corporation's first priority and it continues to take steps to protect the health of its staff and the public in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In line with recommendations from government authorities, SECURE employees are working from home unless required by business-critical functions and field operations. In addition, SECURE has implemented multiple business and operational continuity plans to ensure uninterrupted service to our customers.
"I want to thank our dedicated employees who are doing their part to slow down the spread of the virus to protect our health care system and those most vulnerable within our communities, while continuing to fulfill their work-place responsibilities from home. Despite unprecedented circumstances, we are executing well and are confident that we can meet the expectations of all SECURE stakeholders," said Mr. Amirault, SECURE's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Global energy prices have experienced a significant and rapid decline based on over supply concerns and the reduced demand resulting from COVID-19. The prudent response from SECURE's customers has been to significantly reduce capital spending in 2020. This decision will impact both drilling and completions activity in 2020 and will also have an impact on production volumes that are shut in due to uneconomic crude oil prices or production that naturally declines due to lower capital spending. Given these measures are recent, and the full impact of reduced spending will be continually evaluated, the Corporation is responding to measures taken by our customers by taking prudent actions to protect its stakeholders. The following list highlights these actions and other areas of importance the Corporation has considered:
The Corporation will continue to keep its stakeholders top of mind and supported as it navigates through these events. The Corporation stands by prepared to adjust its response as needed and will continue to base its decisions on recommendations from public health experts, its continuing evaluation of global energy prices, and the impact on SECURE's and our customers' businesses.
