PHX Energy Announces Successful Field Trials of Stream Services' New EDR Product Line
(firmenpresse) - CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/06/16 -- PHX Energy Services Corp. ("PHX Energy" or the "Corporation") (TSX: PHX) is pleased to announce that its electronic drilling recorder ("EDR") division, Stream Services ("Stream"), has concluded its initial field trials of its state-of-the-art EDR product line, specifically its DataStream EDR system, ControlStream Auto Drilling System, DataStream Pro office application and DataStream Mobile smartphone application (collectively referred to as the "EDR Platform"). Stream has deployed the new EDR Platform in numerous Canadian basins and is seeing the desired results and receiving positive feedback from clientele.
In North America, the majority of drilling rigs employ an EDR system, however, competition is limited and the market is dominated by a small number of service providers. In addition, markets outside of North America have not developed to the same extent in terms of reliance on EDR technology, and PHX Energy is well positioned to capitalize on this opportunity as the industry evolves.
EDR systems offer drilling operators the ability to acquire and monitor vital drilling parameters in real-time at the rig site and in the office. Sophisticated measurement instrumentation technology captures drilling data, which is transmitted to the EDR system where it is displayed in meaningful configurations that can be utilized for analysis and optimization.
With a focus on simplicity, leading edge technologies and an open source software architecture, the Stream EDR Platform provides a unique and user friendly offering to the upstream market.
Additional qualification of the EDR Platform is expected to be carried out under a commercial business model in the second and third quarters of 2016, with a full commercialization and wide scale deployment anticipated in the fourth quarter. PHX Energy will leverage its existing footprint and administrative and marketing resources to support the expansion of Stream, and expects that no additional capital commitments or discretionary spending will be required outside of increasing capacity to meet demand by purchasing field equipment and hiring field support personnel.
Management of PHX Energy believes that the addition of Stream in a commercial capacity will increase overall profitability with the superior margins attainable from this business line and will improve the financial performance of the Corporation.
