Higher Oil Prices Spark Activity and Demand in Canadian Oil Markets

Phoenix, AZ -- May 17, 2018 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Lithium Exploration Group (USOTC: LEXG) is already benefiting from oil price increases from turmoil in the Middle East. The company is seeing a substantial increase in oil and gas activity in Western Canada which has led to several new discussions regarding commercial orders for the SonCav ultrasonic generator to be used as a heat treater to separate the oil, gas, and water.

"The Canadian oil patch has been hit pretty hard over the past few years but at $70 oil there is a lot of wells coming back on line and a lot of new drilling activity in Alberta and the surrounding provinces," commented CEO Alex Walsh. "These producers are motivated to get something in place before winter and we are exploring options on how they could make orders now and take delivery in the fall."
