Plexus Holdings PLC ('Plexus' or 'the Company')
Wins �125,000 contract with Dubai Petroleum Establishment
Plexus Holdings PLC, the AIM quoted oil and gas engineering services business, has signed its first Middle Eastern contract with Dubai
Petroleum Establishment, subject to completion of relevant contract terms, to supply the Company's proprietary POS-GRIP� wellhead and
mudline suspension systems for use in the Arabian Gulf. This agreement underpins Plexus' strategy of accelerating the roll out of its
POS-GRIP technology into new geographic areas as a superior alternative to current wellhead technology across all pressure spectrums. The
immediate value of the contract is circa �125,000, plus service charges with revenues commencing in July 2008, the first quarter of the
Company's next financial year 2008/2009.
Plexus will provide Dubai Petroleum with its standard proprietary 10,000 psi POS-GRIP technology wellhead rental equipment for an oil
exploration well contract. This agreement marks the first working relationship between the two companies and the Directors are hopeful that
it can be further strengthened in the future and will act as a potential bridgehead into the region.
Plexus CEO Ben van Bilderbeek said, "This is a pivotal contract win for Plexus as the Company gains its first foothold in the Middle
East, one of the world's premier oil and gas producing regions. It is important for Plexus to continue to gain exposure in the international
arena if we are to fulfil our long-term objectives of increasing market penetration to develop POS-GRIP as a new industry standard for
wellhead design. With this in mind, we will continue to focus on securing additional contracts in the Middle East to add to our already
solid blue-chip client list, which includes BG International, BHP Billiton, BP, ConocoPhillips, Maersk, Shell, and StatoilHydro."
