Environmental Capital Partners Completes Cascade Drilling Transaction

Environmental Capital Partners Completes Cascade Drilling Transaction

Investment provides capital to fund future growth initiatives

WOODINVILLE, WashEnvironmental Capital Partners (“ECP”), a New York based private equity firm, with its affiliates announced today that it has made an investment in Cascade Drilling, L.P. in order to fund the Company’s future growth initiatives. Bruce Niermeyer, the Company’s founder, remains a significant shareholder and will continue as President and CEO of the Company. Mr. Niermeyer has been a leader in the drilling industry for decades and has been instrumental in developing Cascade Drilling into one of the largest independent drilling companies in North America focused on the environmental sector. The transaction enables the Company to expand significantly while affording it the ability to continue to service its customers at the highest level. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.


“We are delighted with our investment in Cascade Drilling. By providing environmental drilling services for water and soil assessment, monitoring, and remediation purposes, Cascade Drilling is a perfect fit with our broader mission to promote the growth of companies that enhance environmental sustainability,” said Robert Egan, a Managing Partner of ECP. “Our investment provides the business with the flexibility to grow beyond existing locations in Seattle, Los Angeles, Sacramento and Portland and for expanded service offerings while maintaining its keen focus on safety and customer service. Technological advances in remediation, an ever increasing need to assess and clean up contaminated sites, and the improved economics of applications such as geothermal heat transfer will provide secular growth in Cascade Drilling’s core sectors. Bruce Niermeyer has built an industry leading company through deep knowledge and outstanding leadership; we look forward to partnering with Bruce in developing Cascade Drilling in the coming years.”


“Our relationship with ECP will provide us with a long-term partner to promote future growth and enable us to build upon our leadership position by expanding the locations in which we offer clients the highest level of service and safety,” Cascade Drilling President and CEO Bruce Niermeyer said. “I view the transaction as a natural progression within Cascade Drilling’s lifecycle. We have grown without outside resources to cover the entire West Coast and are now at the point where it makes sense to team with an institutional partner to take the Company to the next level. ECP has shown a strong commitment to Cascade Drilling’s core values of safety first and quality while demonstrating the skills and track record I was looking for in a partner.”
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney’s Capital Strategies Group served as exclusive financial advisor to Cascade Drilling in this transaction. PNC Business Credit arranged the financing for the transaction. O'Melveny & Myers LLP and Karr Tuttle Campbell provided legal advice to ECP and the Company, respectively.

Water Stocks News - Wescorp Energy and Ellycrack AS restructure their joint agreement for the development and commercialization of the VISCOSITOR heavy oil upgrading technology
Category: Water

HOUSTON, TX and CALGARY, AB - Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTCBB: WSCE), an oil and gas technology solutions provider, and Ellycrack AS, a private heavy oil technology company based in Norway, are pleased to announce that they have restructured the terms of their joint agreement to develop and commercialize the patented on-site heavy oil upgrading technology. The new agreement benefits both companies by aiding Ellycrack to secure the required funding, which, when obtained, will rapidly advance extensive testing, development and refinement of a commercialized facility. The Ellycrack technology, called the VISCOSITOR, uses a low temperature and low pressure thermo-mechanical process to increase the viscosity of heavy oil, thus increasing its value per barrel by US$25 to $30 in a single operation at a cost of approximately US$5 per barrel. The VISCOSITOR technology offers substantial economic and environmental benefits to clients engaged in the production of heavy oil, including the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by up to 60%.

Under the terms of the new agreement, Ellycrack will have full legal ownership of the VISCOSITOR technology, including its designs, work projects and the 50 barrel-per-day VISCOSITOR test unit that is currently located in western Canada.

In return, Ellycrack AS will deliver 725,000 shares of Ellycrack to Wescorp for nominal consideration and Ellycrack will credit Wescorp as having satisfied its obligation to Ellycrack of approximately $160,000. Wescorp will become the largest single shareholder of Ellycrack with ownership of 23.72% on a fully diluted basis. Wescorp also has been granted the option to participate in all future Ellycrack share issuances thus allowing Wescorp to maintain its ownership percentage in Ellycrack AS.

"Wescorp is very pleased with the new arrangement with Ellycrack regarding the VISCOSITOR," commented Doug Biles, President and CEO of Wescorp Energy. "It is our understanding that the Ellycrack team will quickly begin the continued extensive testing and development of the VISCOSITOR technology. This arrangement also will allow our Wescorp team to become completely focused on the water and solid remediation business opportunities in North America."

"This new agreement is beneficial to both companies," stated Olav Ellingsen, CEO of Ellycrack AS. "Ellycrack's legal ownership and control of the test unit allows us to finance the company so further development and commercialization can occur at a much faster rate. We look forward to having Wescorp as a value-added shareholder as we prove the commercial viability and large scale economic value of the VISCOSITOR."
