Enseco Energy Services Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ENS) ("Enseco" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced acquisition of all
the assets of a US based private directional drilling company ("the directional
drilling assets"), A2Z Directional ("the private company"), with an operating
office in Casper, Wyoming and operations in North Dakota and Wyoming. 


The directional drilling assets will be acquired for $2.245 million USD in cash,
payable in three monthly payments of $65,000 USD beginning August 31, 2010, and
final payment of $2.05 million USD on October 29, 2010. 


The private company operates seven measurement while drilling ("MWD") kits and
related equipment primarily in the Bakken shale of North Dakota and is an
industry leader in unmanned MWD operations. The existing management and team and
their sales presence in Houston and Denver will remain with Enseco and be an
integral part of Enseco's growth in the Bakken and Rocky Mountain regions. The
combination of the private company's current MWD presence and Enseco directional
drilling expertise is expected to allow the Company to continue the expansion of
its business in these increasingly active regions.


Enseco is a growing supplier of energy related services operating throughout
United States and Canada providing directional drilling, production testing and
swabbing services to the industry.
