CORRE Announces Major Drill Cuttings Treatment Contract in Kuwait

19/06/2014 4:25pm

Marketwired Canada


Canadian Oil Recovery and Remediation Enterprises Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CVR)
("CORRE" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that SAR AS, the MENA
operating partner of CORRE in SAR-CORRE MENA Limited ("SCM"), has been awarded a
major multi-million dollar contract by the Kuwait Oil Company ("KOC") to treat
oil based mud ("OBM") drill cuttings ("KOC Contract"). Eighteen companies were
approved by KOC to bid for this drill cuttings treatment project.


The KOC Contract includes the mobilization and construction of a fully equipped
permanent facility to treat 26,000 tons of drill cuttings per year as specified
in the contract. This facility will be built using the proven drill cuttings
treatment technology and process of SAR's world class facility currently
operating in Averoy, Norway, which has the capacity to treat 50,000 tons of
drill cuttings per year. The treatment capacity of the new facility can be
increased if and when needed. The term of the KOC Contract is for 5 years with a
one-year extension option during which 130,000-156,000 tons of drill cuttings
are expected to be treated. The contract provides a 6 month mobilization period
starting July 10th 2014. Accordingly, the permanent facility is expected
commence operations on or before January 10th 2015.


The Company is unable to disclose the total contract amount at the present time
in order to safeguard the confidentiality of its proprietary processing rate and
its bidding prices for similar ongoing high value drill cuttings contracts in
the Gulf. At the present time, the Company's operating partner is in the process
of bidding for another major onshore drill cuttings treatment contract, and is
also preparing to bid on an equally major drill cuttings contract located
offshore. Notwithstanding this current limitation for competitive purposes, the
Company is able to provide the following particulars pertaining to the KOC
Contract:




--  The estimated Capital Expenditures of the KOC Contract are approximately
    $8.5 million (45% of which will be CORRE's proportionate obligation in
    connection with its ownership interest in SCM); 
--  Upon completion of mobilization, a payment in the amount of $1.65
    million will be due to SCM from KOC; 
--  Based upon Company management's review of contracts awarded in the MENA
    and other regions for drill cuttings tenders during the past 4 years,
    the estimated range of the service industry average operating cost under
    such agreements is between $120 and $275 per ton and SCM's costs will be
    within this range. The three primary factors affecting the actual cost
    of operators under such agreements are: a. volume (economies of scale
    may result in lower operational costs); b. the technology being employed
    (for example, direct thermal desorption, as compared to indirect thermal
    desorption); and c. total overhead costs; and 
--  Though the absolute contract value cannot be disclosed at this time, the
    Company is able to confirm that the total revenue payable under the KOC
    Contract exceeds $18 million dollars.



"With this contract, our MENA operating partner has positioned us as one of the
primary contractors in the specialized service of treatment of drill cuttings in
the MENA region. This represents a significant milestone in the development of
our oil waste management and treatment services in the region and in our joint
role with the local national oil companies as advocates for a clean and safe
environment. With SAR as our partner and pre-qualified oil service provider, we
continue to bid for more contracts and to increase our environmental remediation
responsibilities using our optimized and approved technologies to treat
oil-contaminated soil, recover oil and clean drill cuttings. Furthermore, SAR
can now demonstrate the quality and effectiveness of its drill cuttings
treatment services to KOC, a leading oil company in the Gulf region," said
CORRE's Chairman and CEO John Lorenzo. "Finally, I would like to thank our
shareholders and strategic allies for their patience and unfailing support."
