CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jun 16, 2014) - Aveda Transportation and Energy Services Inc. ("Aveda" or the "Company") (TSX-VENTURE:AVE), a leading provider of oilfield hauling services and equipment rentals to the energy industry, today announced that, through its operating subsidiary in the U.S., it has signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire Precision Drilling Corporation's ("Precision") U.S. rig moving assets (the "Acquisition"). Aveda expects to acquire rig moving equipment, including bed/tandem trucks, tractors, trailers, loaders and cranes, for total consideration of US$24.0 million.
Selected assets being acquired include:
Equipment Type | # of Pieces from the Acquisition | Number Currently in Aveda's U.S. Fleet | Total Number in Aveda's U.S. Fleet Post Acquisition | Percentage Increase in Aveda's U.S. Fleet |
Bed/Tandem Trucks | 13 | 34 | 47 | 38% |
Winch/Conventional Tractors | 59 | 93 | 152 | 63% |
Trailers | 69 | 211 | 280 | 33% |
Cranes | 12 | 6 | 18 | 200% |
"This is a very exciting time for Aveda. Through this transaction we are acquiring a modern and well maintained fleet that shares the same specifications and equipment configuration as our current U.S. assets," said Kevin Roycraft, President and CEO of Aveda. "This will support a smooth integration into our operations and drive utilization. It also strengthens our relationship with Precision and we look forward to working with Precision on internal and customer rig moves in the future. Strategically, this will further reduce Aveda's reliance on third-party equipment suppliers, helping to improve margins, and allow us to allocate equipment to both current and new operating areas to take advantage of high activity levels and further growth opportunities in certain regions."
Subject to customary documentation and approvals, the Company expects to close the Acquisition on July 1, 2014. Aveda expects these assets to be deployed sometime in the third quarter of 2014. A significant portion of Aveda's 2014 capital expenditure budget is being allocated to the acquisition. Management intends to increase planned capital expenditures for 2014 with an eye to funding additional growth initiatives and reducing the Company's third party costs.
