Kelso Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:KLS)(OTCQX:KEOSF) (the "Company" or "Kelso") -

The Company reports that it has reviewed the performance characteristics of its
Kelso Klincher(R) Manway ("KKM") with loading terminal operators and management
at the Bakken Oil Fields in North Dakota. The review has confirmed that there
are several compelling economic advantages and arguments for the commercial
adoption of the KKM which include:




--  Opening, closing and vapor sealing using our KKM one-bolt system takes
    approximately 5 minutes compared to the industry's current recommended
    eye-bolt practice that takes approximately 25 to 35 minutes as
    documented in AAR Pamphlet 34. 
    
--  The KKM can increase daily terminal loading capacity up to 32%
    increasing revenues of terminal operations that are paid by the volume
    of oil loaded and shipped. 
    
--  The KKM allows more oil production to be shipped from existing
    facilities improving scheduling and capital expenditure requirements for
    new terminals. 
    
--  The simple operation of our KKM should mean that operational personnel
    are less likely to cheat on manway securement operations when fatigued
    or working in extreme weather conditions reducing the risk of non-
    accidental releases of hazmat and related regulatory fines. 
    
--  The uniform sealing method of our KKM prolongs gasket service life
    savings thousands of dollars in new gasket costs annually along with
    associated downtime costs to change out the gasket. 



Kelso has addressed the concerns of capital expenditures required to convert
loading terminals that top load through loading arm systems to utilize the KKM
through Kelso's design of a universal loading arm adaptor that can service both
KKM and current eye bolt designs. The adaptors utilize current design criteria
and fit existing terminal technology seamlessly. The adaptors are a minimal
expense when measured against the substantial capacity gains they will produce.
The adapters are available through Kelso or our supply partners for terminal
facilities.


The Company is currently bringing the KKM into production in Bonham, Texas.
Management believes that the KKM will be a key product for the Company
delivering a multi-million dollar revenue stream for many years to come. Orders
are being negotiated and deliveries are currently scheduled to begin in March
2014. The KKM is expected to follow the same adoption path as our EPRV.
Distribution should begin slowly, gain momentum and progress toward full
production in 2015.
