DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - May 16, 2013) - ENSERVCO Corporation (
Management estimates the annualized revenue potential from the new equipment at approximately $10 million. The equipment includes nine frac heating trucks with a total of 12 burner boxes, four hot oilers and two well acidizing trucks. The investments will expand ENSERVCO's frac heating capacity by 40 percent and increase its hot oiling fleet by 15 percent.
"Although we reported record financial results during the two most recent quarters, we were nevertheless constrained by capacity limitations," said Rick Kasch, president. "This fleet expansion will enhance our ability to meet growing customer demand as we head into the busy season this fall."
ENSERVCO also announced that sales during April 2013 reached $3.7 million, up 85% from the same month last year. The improvement was fueled in part by cool spring temperatures across the Company's service territories, as well as sustained demand for fluid heating services, particularly in regions where new hydraulic fracturing techniques require higher water temperatures than traditional frac designs.
Management also commented on the increased trading volume in ENSERVCO's common stock in recent days. "We believe the improved liquidity is at least partially related to our November 2012 private placement. The shares and associated warrants were priced at $0.35 and $0.55, respectively. Given the significant increase in our share price during recent months, we believe it is likely some of the participants in the transaction are recognizing profits." Kasch added that management has not sold any shares subsequent to the November private placement.
