HOUSTON, TX and NEUQUEN CITY, ARGENTINA--(Marketwired - Jul 19, 2017) - Eco-Stim Energy Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: ESES) ("EcoStim" or the "Company") announced today that Barry Ekstrand, the Company's Senior Vice President of Operations - North America, has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer effective August 1, 2017. Barry assumes this new role after helping the Company to successfully complete the recent start-up of operations in Oklahoma and after more than 35 successful years of industry experience, including extensive tenure at Halliburton, Weatherford and Key Energy Services. Barry's experience in well completions is extensive, with deep application knowledge of the services and chemistries used as well the operational efficiencies needed to remain competitive when times are difficult.

Simultaneously, Bobby Chapman, the Company's current Chief Operating Officer will be stepping down from that role while remaining a member of the Company's executive team as Vice President of Corporate Development and M&A. During Bobby's tenure as the COO, the Company has successfully completed the start of operations in Argentina, established a solid reputation in that market, introduced new technology and started-up another operation in Oklahoma. EcoStim is pleased that Bobby will continue with the Company, allowing Mr. Ekstrand and the Company to leverage off his deep industry experience and relationships.

J. Chris Boswell, EcoStim's President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "I first want to thank Bobby Chapman for his leadership in guiding the company from the COO seat over the past three years. It is a real pleasure to work with Bobby. I feel the same way about Barry Ekstrand who has shown that he is very capable of leading the Company's operations, even during the few months that he has been at EcoStim. He has my full confidence and has helped Bobby to build an outstanding team in Oklahoma. Barry also has deep industry relationships that have already resulted in attracting great talent and new potential customers to the Company. I look forward to working with Bobby and Barry in their new roles."
