LIOS Technology wins a 5 year DTS contract in the Far East / LIOS Technology GmbH has been awarded a 5 year contract by a major Operator in the Far-East

Cologe (ots) - LIOS Technology, the leader in affordable cost
effective DTS systems in Oil and Gas exploration, announces the award
of a 5 year contract from a major Operator in the Far East. This
contract was awarded after a successful 2 year field evaluation
period for the supply of DTS for downhole monitoring deployments at
onshore wells.

LIOS Technology's sophisticated Distributed Temperature Sensing
(DTS) systems offer the unique ability to provide a reliable,
non-intrusive means of continuous temperature logging of wells in Oil
and Gas exploration, enabling full coverage of complex and
multilateral wells with a single optical fibre cable. The LIOS DTS
continuously monitors the temperature of an optic fibre at all points
along its entire length.

For this contract LIOS Technology teamed up with and operates
closely together with an optical pressure sensing company and a major
local Service Company.

LIOS Technology GmbH is the first DTS supplier with an approved
WITSML data interface. The petrotechnical protocol standard WITSML
ensures compatible data streams on TCP/IP level of distributed
temperature profiles, backscattering profiles and event data. LIOS
offers its DTS systems with integrated protocol converter,
technologies to safely transfer data and enable its integration into
customised database structures. The Petroleum Engineers in the office
can monitor the status of their wells live on their computer screens.

Thomas Oldemeyer, Chief Executive Officer of LIOS Technology
commented, "This successful assessment of our system is a testament
to the reliability, accuracy and durability of our products. These
DTS systems provide a practical and cost effective solution to
monitor the downhole status of production wells in some of the most
vital petro hubs in the world."

Daan van Laar, Key Account manager of LIOS Technology added, "The
value of the online data enables rapid intervention benefiting
directly in project economics. Installing our DTS increases well and
reservoir surveillance adding up to the economical value of new
projects"
