Toronto - August 17, 2010 (Investorideas.com water stocks newswire, www.water-stocks.com) - The United Nations estimates that more than half of the world's population will experience severe shortages of fresh water by 2025. In light of these fresh water forecasts and challenges, several Ryerson University researchers worked together to develop a financial evaluation process to identify which water-sector companies are likely to stay afloat and which ones are likely to sink in a worldwide financial crisis.

"The supply and distribution of water is vital everywhere. As a result it's important to identify in advance which water companies might experience financial trouble so that governments and industry can hopefully help salvage them in time" said Lyubomir Halachev, a recent graduate of the Ted Rogers School of Business Management and winner of the prize for best student paper at the International Congress on Environmental Modeling and Software in Ottawa, which beat out submissions by master's and PhD-level candidates.
Halachev based his research on the "triple bottom line" premise: companies should focus on people and the planet, as well as profits. The idea implies that changes in a company's economic viability may also affect social and environmental stability in the region where the company operates.
Halachev analyzed 140 publicly listed companies around the world. His goal was to determine which companies were likely to remain active in the sector and which ones were likely to "die" out (i.e. be delisted from the stock exchange). The study included a broad range of companies in the water industry including, water-treatment, distribution and bottling, as well as those that operate in, or offer services to, the water industry such as information technology, engineering solutions, financing, and piping and irrigation equipment.
The research was conducted in three stages: first, Halachev used stock market databases to identify the companies and collect their stock data over the past 25 years. His co-author Yashodhan Athavale, an electrical and computer engineering graduate student from Ryerson's Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Science, expanded upon a set of mathematical approaches initially developed at Ryerson's Research Lab for Advanced System Modelling, and then wrote a computer program to apply them. When Halachev applied these approaches to the stock market data from the water sector and used them to further classify the companies, the resulting information showed a definite visual and quantifiable distinction between the active companies and those likely to "die."
Professor Aziz Guergachi, founding director of the advanced system modelling lab at the Ted Rogers School of Information Technology Management, and Halachev's co-author and supervisor said the results of this research illustrate the importance of conducting interdisciplinary research.
"The solutions to modern-day problems lie at the intersection of disciplines, not in single disciplines. It's similar to a soccer game. Defensive and offensive players pass the ball to each other and when the best moment comes, one of those players will score. So, it is hard to state the role of individual players in scoring the goal."
Given the importance and potential scarcity of fresh water, it is essential for governments to be able to identify water-sector companies that are on the brink of financial trouble while they can still be salvaged. Through the interdisciplinary work and collaborative efforts of Halachev and his co-authors, their predictive model can provide much needed insight into the increasingly important, yet vulnerable water sector.
Halachev's co-authors were graduate student Yashodhan Athavale, their supervisor Professor Guergachi and co-supervisor Sri Krishnan, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Ryerson's Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Science and a Canada Research Chair in Biomedical Signal Analysis.

Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTCBB: WSCE Preps H20maxx Remediation Technology For Deployment in Gulf Spill Clean Up

By any measure, the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill is an environmental disaster of epic proportions. Experts estimate between 86 million and 168 million gallons of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico following the explosion of this deepwater drilling rig on April 20th. BP initially pegged the leak at around 1,000 barrels (42,000 gallons) of oil per day, but later revised these numbers upward dramatically. According to the Boston Globe, current estimates are that more than one million gallons of oil spilled into the Gulf each day, Oil has washed up on the shores of all five Gulf States, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida and Texas. BP has set aside $20 billion in a clean up fund and contracted with thousands of vessels and over 20,000 workers to handle the cleanup effort.
Despite this massive response, recovery efforts have only been minimally successful. BP reported in early July that 26.5 million barrels of oil have been recovered, but this represents less than one-third of the total spill. New technologies and equipment are urgently needed to accelerate the pace of the clean up and recovery.
Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTCBB: WSCE), a clean water solutions company, owns a proprietary oil/seawater separation technology called H20Maxx and is ready to deploy in the Gulf clean up. This technology has been proven effective, economic and friendly to the environment. H20maxx uses a nano/micro-bubble aeration process to separate oil from seawater to less than 29 parts per million, exceeding EPA standards. No chemicals are used in the process, which is environmentally friendly. H20maxx can process large volumes of oil contaminated seawater rapidly and would allow the cleaned seawater to be immediately discharged back into the sea. The equipment is compact, highly portable and not motion sensitive so H20maxx units can be operated effectively from the moving deck of a ship or offshore production platform.

BP reported in early July that 26.5 million barrels of oil have been recovered, but this represents less than one-third of the total spill. New technologies and equipment are urgently needed to accelerate the pace of the clean up and recovery.
Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTCBB: WSCE), a clean water solutions company, owns a proprietary oil/seawater separation technology called H20Maxx and is ready to deploy in the Gulf clean up. This technology has been proven effective, economic and friendly to the environment. H20maxx uses a nano/micro-bubble aeration process to separate oil from seawater to less than 29 parts per million, exceeding EPA standards. No chemicals are used in the process, which is environmentally friendly. H20maxx can process large volumes of oil contaminated seawater rapidly and would allow the cleaned seawater to be immediately discharged back into the sea. The equipment is compact, highly portable and not motion sensitive so H20maxx units can be operated effectively from the moving deck of a ship or offshore production platform.
H20maxx Is Already Deployed in Canadian Oilfields
Many of the technologies proposed for the Gulf clean up are untested, but this is not the case with H20maxx, which has already proven its value in Western Canadian oilfields. Cancen Oil Canada Corporation, a leading provider of oilfield waste management services, has been using an H20maxx unit to process oilfield waste streams collected from various producers since mid-May. The unit is capable of processing 2,000 barrels of oilfield waste water per day.
Cancen, Wescorp’s partner for commercializing H20maxx technology, plans to deploy additional remediation units at its processing facilities as it expands its footprint. The joint venture partners also plan to build and deploy mobile units to provide on-site remediation for Cancen clients.
New Large Capacity Remediation Unit Planned
Wescorp is in active discussions with contractors and government agencies involved in the Gulf clean-up to identify the right opportunity for H20maxx technology. In response to their feedback, the Company began constructing a new, larger capacity water remediation unit capable of processing up to 10,000 barrels of contaminated water per day. Wescorp expects to take delivery of the larger unit in September, which may be deployed in the Gulf region for on-site demonstration and testing.
The large capacity unit is highly mobile and can be moved from site to site for technology demonstrations and deployment in short-term commercial operations. It comes equipped with its own storage, separation and containment tanks and micro-aeration generators and is fully automated, thus requiring minimal human supervision. In addition, Wescorp has designed a large, skid-mounted H20maxx unit capable of processing up to 65,000 barrels (2.8 million gallons) of contaminated seawater per day. This unit has been designed to operate on land or on sea and will be marketed to marine and emergency response customers.
Technology Treats Oilfield “Produced” Water
Wescorp originally developed H20maxx technology for oilfield applications in the remediation of “produced” water, which is contaminated water left over from drilling operations. This water is tainted with hydrocarbons, sand, drill cuttings and salt and must be cleaned of residual oil and other pollutants. Oil and gas companies dispose of approximately 250 million barrels of produced water each day and pay as much as $12 per barrel for its treatment and disposal. H20maxx removes more hydrocarbons than other treatment methods, which can leave behind as much as 5,000 to 30,000 parts per million of hydrocarbons. In comparison, H20maxx reduces hydrocarbon content of treated water to less than ten parts per million. By using H20Maxx, oil companies can reduce their disposal costs since the treated water is cleaner. In addition, they can recover and sell higher quantities of residual oil. Another benefit of H20maxx technology is that oil companies are able to recycle treated water in their drilling operations, thus reducing fresh water consumption.

Investorideas.com - Water Stocks News; Wescorp (OTCBB:WSCE) Defines Strategy for Gulf of Mexico Spill Remediation and Long-Term Regulatory Implications for Off-Shore Oil and Gas Operations

CALGARY, ALBERTA - August 11, 2010 (Investorideas.com Water Stocks Newswire) - Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTC.BB:WSCE), a clean water technology company focused on implementing its low-cost solutions into several markets including the oil & gas and marine industries, today further defined its strategy to enter the market to provide services for the oil spill recovery efforts in the Gulf of Mexico. Management is in active discussions with contractors and government agencies involved in the Gulf clean-up efforts to attempt to obtain the right opportunity for Wescorp to introduce its H2Omaxx water remediation technology in support of the oil spill recovery efforts.
"Our goal is to locate a right opportunity for Wescorp's H2Omaxx technology to be deployed in a marine environment in order to demonstrate its unusually cost effective and efficient oil/water separation," states Robert G. Power, Executive Chairman of Wescorp. "We made a conscious decision to not jump into this new area until we clearly understood the issues and challenges related to the Gulf spill and clean up efforts. As a result, Wescorp has been actively examining and receiving feedback about the actual technology challenges and opportunities for on- and off-shore oil/water separation.
"In September, we expect to achieve two important milestones. We anticipate receiving the independent test data from the ongoing commercial H2Omaxx operation from the New Sarepta, Alberta site. That same month, we also look forward to taking delivery of our first larger capacity 10,000 barrel-a-day treatment unit. At that point, we believe Wescorp will be well positioned to deploy a land-based H2Omaxx unit for use in the Gulf of Mexico clean-up.
"It is important to recognize that the clean-up will go on for many months, and possibly years. We want to ensure that our technology works properly for the specific Gulf circumstances, and we have the confidence that H2Omaxx will then prove itself in the field. Few of the new technologies that have been deployed to date in the initial clean-up operations have achieved any new efficiencies. Our objective is to set new performance standards," Power said.
Richard Dalati, VP Gulf of Mexico and International Business, added, "Wescorp has been actively pursuing opportunities for both on-shore and off-shore oil spill recovery applications in the Gulf of Mexico. At the same time, we are also pursuing opportunities related to off-shore production water remediation applications. H2Omaxx technology is economically competitive and environmentally benign, as it does not use any chemicals. Operationally, the unit is simple to use, and can quickly and efficiently process high volumes of contaminated water.
"Looking ahead, we believe, as do other leaders in the industry, that the off-shore oil and gas industry will come under much stricter regulatory requirements for oil/water separation and for emergency response to oil spills. Our H2Omaxx technology provides a unique solution for both of these regulatory objectives. We expect Wescorp to play an active role and be part of the discussion going forward in terms of the technologies and standards that will likely be adopted to meet the new regulatory requirements.
"Equally important," Dalati continued, "Wescorp has now designed a unit to operate in a variety of marine environments - at sea, on a drilling rig, or on a ship. There is presently no technology that operates in a large sea swell (heave) environment under a wide variety of conditions. We expect testing will prove that H2Omaxx will operate effectively at sea, and the technology will be in demand by the marine industry because of its low cost, small footprint and light weight specifications," concluded Dalati.
H2Omaxx Technology
H2Omaxx has been proven to be a safe, effective, economical and environmentally friendly process for cleaning and separating oil and solids from water. Using Wescorp's nano-aeration technology, independent test results have shown the H2Omaxx technology to reduce the oil content in produced water to less than 10 parts per million without the use of chemicals, filters or heat.
Use of H2Omaxx provides important cost benefits to the operator when compared with the traditional multi-technology approach to remediate water. H2Omaxx can lower both the operator's capital costs and operating costs significantly. In addition, new revenues are created by the capture of barrels of oil that would otherwise be disposed.
Land-Based or Sea-Based Solution
H2Omaxx technology has been designed to produce the H2Omaxx unit in a variety of sizes, including a mobile unit and commercial units (2,500, 10,000 and 65,000 barrels-per-day). H2Omaxx solutions address a wide range of oil/water separation needs:
On-Shore Production Operations
The highly mobile H2Omaxx unit can be rapidly transported to facilities for short- or long-term commercial operations. The 10,000 barrel-per-day unit has its own storage, separation and containment tanks, micro-aeration generators and firmware and computer automation technology to allow water remediation with minimal human supervision. Wescorp expects to take delivery of its first manufactured 10,000 barrel-per-day unit in September.
Large Volume/Sea Water Emergency Response
A large volume skid-mounted unit has been designed to clean up to 65,000 barrels or 2.8 million gallons of oily seawater per day. Multiple units could be coupled together to meet the demands required in the Gulf disaster. The H2Omaxx oil/seawater separation technology is designed to remediate oily water to a standard to meet the Environmental Protection Agency's limits of 29 parts per million (ppm) monthly average – 42 ppm maximum daily "oil and grease" content. This unit has been designed to operate either on land or on the sea. Wescorp will market a large scale emergency response unit as part of its ongoing marketing efforts to marine and emergency response customers. Wescorp will seek to secure a customer for this type of unit before commissioning its construction.
Off-Shore Oil & Gas Production
Wescorp believes that a compact skid-mounted unit can be used to remediate produced water from an off-shore production platform to a level that should allow it to be discharged overboard. The unit would provide a smaller footprint (less weight, less size and less energy requirements) than the multiple pieces of equipment traditionally used for offshore platforms. Wescorp also intends to market a compact skid-mounted unit as part of its ongoing sales efforts.
Key operating advantages for the off-shore industry are expected to include:
High Throughput / Low Retention: The low retention time required by H2Omaxx technology will greatly reduce the weight of water in process relative to the throughput.
Wide Input Tolerances: Many other technologies only perform at peak levels within a narrow range of input flow rates and/or the percentage of hydrocarbons in the input solution. These operationally sensitive technologies require preconditioning or waste storage containers to manage the input specifications. This operation of the H2Omaxx unit will not require preconditioning and storage, thus decreasing overall treatment system cost, weight and space requirements.
Because of these traditional technology challenges, many production platforms choose instead to ship produced water to on-shore processing facilities, thereby significantly increasing costs and environmental operating risks. These costs and risks will be mitigated with the use of H2Omaxx.

CALGARY, ALBERTA - August 11, 2010 (Investorideas.com Water Stocks Newswire) - Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTC.BB:WSCE), a clean water technology company focused on implementing its low-cost solutions into several markets including the oil & gas and marine industries, today further defined its strategy to enter the market to provide services for the oil spill recovery efforts in the Gulf of Mexico. Management is in active discussions with contractors and government agencies involved in the Gulf clean-up efforts to attempt to obtain the right opportunity for Wescorp to introduce its H2Omaxx water remediation technology in support of the oil spill recovery efforts.
"Our goal is to locate a right opportunity for Wescorp's H2Omaxx technology to be deployed in a marine environment in order to demonstrate its unusually cost effective and efficient oil/water separation," states Robert G. Power, Executive Chairman of Wescorp. "We made a conscious decision to not jump into this new area until we clearly understood the issues and challenges related to the Gulf spill and clean up efforts. As a result, Wescorp has been actively examining and receiving feedback about the actual technology challenges and opportunities for on- and off-shore oil/water separation.
"In September, we expect to achieve two important milestones. We anticipate receiving the independent test data from the ongoing commercial H2Omaxx operation from the New Sarepta, Alberta site. That same month, we also look forward to taking delivery of our first larger capacity 10,000 barrel-a-day treatment unit. At that point, we believe Wescorp will be well positioned to deploy a land-based H2Omaxx unit for use in the Gulf of Mexico clean-up.
"It is important to recognize that the clean-up will go on for many months, and possibly years. We want to ensure that our technology works properly for the specific Gulf circumstances, and we have the confidence that H2Omaxx will then prove itself in the field. Few of the new technologies that have been deployed to date in the initial clean-up operations have achieved any new efficiencies. Our objective is to set new performance standards," Power said.
Richard Dalati, VP Gulf of Mexico and International Business, added, "Wescorp has been actively pursuing opportunities for both on-shore and off-shore oil spill recovery applications in the Gulf of Mexico. At the same time, we are also pursuing opportunities related to off-shore production water remediation applications. H2Omaxx technology is economically competitive and environmentally benign, as it does not use any chemicals. Operationally, the unit is simple to use, and can quickly and efficiently process high volumes of contaminated water.
"Looking ahead, we believe, as do other leaders in the industry, that the off-shore oil and gas industry will come under much stricter regulatory requirements for oil/water separation and for emergency response to oil spills. Our H2Omaxx technology provides a unique solution for both of these regulatory objectives. We expect Wescorp to play an active role and be part of the discussion going forward in terms of the technologies and standards that will likely be adopted to meet the new regulatory requirements.

CALGARY, ALBERTA - August 6, 2010 (Investorideas.com Water Stocks Newswire) - Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTC.BB:WSCE), a clean water technology company focused on implementing its low-cost solutions into several markets, including the oil & gas and marine industries, has upgraded the design and increased the capacity of its H2Omaxx mobile hydrocarbon water remediation unit currently in production.
In March, Wescorp announced it had entered into an agreement with K-Line Trailers Ltd. (www.klinetrailers.com) for the design and construction of a mobile 3,000 barrel-per-day commercial grade H2Omaxx unit. K-Line, a Vancouver-based specialty equipment design and fabrication company, is now building instead the next generation self-contained, mobile H2Omaxx unit. The new 10,000 barrel-per-day unit is designed to be rapidly transported to remote locations.
The design phase of the increased capacity new unit is now complete; fabrication has begun, and Wescorp expects to take delivery of the new unit by the end of September. Upon completion of the commissioning phase, the unit will be available to be marketed for potential customer sites, initially in Western Canada. Wescorp also intends to market the unit's services in the Gulf of Mexico area.
Robert G. Power, Executive Chairman of Wescorp, stated, "We expect that testing and commercial operations of this larger unit will demonstrate that increasing the capacity of H2Omaxx does not diminish its effectiveness, but instead increases potential applications. Operationally, the mobile unit is designed to be easy to use and to quickly and efficiently process larger volumes of hydrocarbon-contaminated water."
This mobile, 10,000 barrel-per-day unit is designed to be rapidly placed on sites for the purposes of demonstrating the technology and for use for short-term commercial operations. The unit will have its own storage, separation and containment tanks, micro-aeration generators, and firmware and computer automation technology to allow water remediation with minimal human supervision.
Benefits of H2Omaxx Technology
Use of H2Omaxx will provide important cost benefits to the operator when compared with the traditional multi-technology approach to remediate water. H2Omaxx will lower both the operator's capital costs and operating costs significantly. Further, H2Omaxx is designed to introduce new revenue through the capture of barrels of oil for sale that would otherwise be subject to disposal.
In earlier tests and demonstrations, H2Omaxx has been proven to be a safe, effective, economical and environmentally friendly process for cleaning and separating oil and solids from water. Using Wescorp's nano-aeration technology, independent test results have shown it can reduce the oil content in produced water to less than 10 parts per million without the use of chemicals, filters or heat.
