CALGARY, Alberta, Oct 05, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --

Wescorp Energy Inc. (OTCBB: WSCE), a clean water technology company focused on implementing its low-cost solutions into several markets, including the oil & gas and marine industries, announced today that Ken James, P.Eng. has been appointed to the Board of Directors and will lead the Board's technical oversight of Wescorp's technology development.

Mr. James is the founder, director and Executive VP of Project and Technology Development for KemeX, a company that has been providing consulting services to the oil and gas and petrochemical industries for over fifteen years. Ken has extensive project and operating plant experience across a broad range of hydrocarbon processing facilities in domestic and international settings. Ken has also been an industry adviser often called upon to assess emerging technologies and instrumental in developing new SAGD technologies, which provides him insight into the opportunities and challenges ahead for Wescorp. A chemical engineer by trade, Ken brings a unique blend of technical expertise, business acumen and established relationships with the customer markets on which Wescorp is focused.

"We continue to strengthen both our board and management team," said Robert G. Power, Chairman of Wescorp. "Ken will play an important role in identifying high priority opportunities for H2Omaxx (our leading oil-water separation technology), understanding the customer needs, and providing guidance for the evolution of our technology program."

Ken James said that "I'm excited to join the Wescorp Board of Directors. I visited the H2Omaxx unit in operation at the Cancen site, and can readily appreciate potential for this technology. Water treating issues have become major issues in the oil sands and shale gas industries, which I believe will constitute the majority of oil and gas activity for many years in Alberta and abroad. New technology is required to improve water management and the H2Omaxx technology can provide an environmentally safe, cost effective means to manage these challenging issues. I am pleased to have the opportunity to contribute to the development of this exciting company."
