BlueFire Equipment Corporation in Talks with Oil Major
August 22 2013 - 10:27AM
Business Wire
BlueFire Equipment Corporation (OTCQB: BLFR) announced today
that it has been in discussions with an oil major to develop
technology that may prove essential for producing oil from offshore
wells under extremely high heat and pressure.
According to energy consulting company Wood Mackenzie, deepwater
drilling returned to its pre-spill level last year and should
experience “bullish growth” in the coming year. The Future of
Global Deepwater Markets study indicates capital investment is
expected to grow from US$43 billion in 2012 to US$114 billion in
2022 challenging the industry to keep up with this unprecedented
growth.
Chairman and CEO of BlueFire Equipment Corporation William A.
Blackwell said, “BlueFire’s research and development team is
thrilled to have an opportunity to propose solutions to challenges
in the multi-billion dollar deepwater oil and gas industry.” He
added, “Just as our proprietary polycrystalline diamond cutter
(PDC) drill bit has shown the potential to save drillers and
operators substantial time and money, we are expecting another
successful technology to emerge through this project.”
As previously announced, BlueFire’s proprietary PDC drill bit
may provide much faster and longer drilling, without the need to
stop and pull the entire drill pipe out of the well to replace a
spent bit. According to company findings, some wells can be drilled
using a BlueFire bit without a single bit change.
