ROBIX IN DISCUSSIONS WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS IMPACTED BY HUSKY ENERGY OIL SPILL IN NORTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER AND PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATE
Robix Environmental Technologies Inc. is providing an update on various activities.
Those impacted by the Husky Energy oil spill in North Saskatchewan River
Robix announced today that it has initiated discussions on emergency response scenarios with numerous stakeholders impacted by the Husky Energy oil spill in the North Saskatchewan River. These discussions have been continuing since the oil spill occurred on July 20, 2016, and have revolved around oil spill emergency preparedness, protection of the environment from oil-related disasters, protection of the environment from municipal and industrial contamination, and water quality monitoring and environmental stewardship. Robix has launched the chief executive officer's blog for the purpose of continuing to describe the pertinent activity of Robix in the development of stakeholder relationships. It can be found on the company's website. Interested persons can read the blog by merely opening the blog site directly or via the main page on the company's website (by clicking on the red button entitled "follow our blog"), and comment by using an appropriate profile such as a Google on-line account.
Launches marketing video for C Series platform
Robix is pleased to announce that it has published a marketing video of the C160 oil spill recovery vessel in operation in Mexico. The video can be found on the company's website (by clicking on the red button entitled "Spanish language video"), and shows the C160 in full operation, efficiently and effectively recovering oil from the surface of water in a waste pond in Mexico. The video and live demonstrations of the C160 in action have brought significant attention from the Mexico marketplace, where key stakeholders have responded favourably.
"The C160 design is a scalable oil spill recovery vessel that we have been demonstrating to customers in Mexico for the past several months. We are extremely pleased with the market acceptance in Mexico," commented Nathan Hansen, president and CEO of Robix. "A smaller version of the 160 is an elegant solution to river spills similar to what we have seen in the North Saskatchewan River. Our C Series products offer a level of preparedness that simply does not exist in this area today. The Husky Energy oil spill highlights the need for robust emergency response technology in these types of environments that are near production facilities and pipelines."
Formation Fluid Management Inc. acquisition progress
Robix is pleased to announce that the due diligence phase pursuant to the letter of intent announced May 25, 2016, to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Formation Fluid Management is near completion. An announcement of a definitive agreement is anticipated and will be provided in due course.
We seek Safe Harbor.
