EDMONTON, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jan. 13, 2015) - Synodon Inc. ("Synodon") (TSX VENTURE:SYD), announces that following an initial 1-Year service contract that concluded in December 2014, one of its United States based customers ("Customer") has re-signed a realSens™ pipeline integrity management services contract for a 3-Year term. This new contract requires quarterly (or bi-annual for some sections) survey flights for their Barnett shale gas gathering pipeline infrastructure. As was the case with the previous contract in 2014, other sections of the Customers' network could potentially be added to the contract in each one of the service years. The value of the 3-Year contract is roughly $1 million Cdn but could increase to more than $1.5 million Cdn with the potential additions.
"We are very pleased to receive this expanded, 3-Year order as a continuation on a successful initial contract and to continue to provide our Customer with integrity intelligence about their pipeline networks and facilities. We look forward to working with this prominent gas producer at addressing other integrity needs as well as expanding further into other territories as required over the coming months", stated Adrian Banica, CEO of Synodon Inc.
Synodon Inc. (www.synodon.com) is a technology company which has developed an advanced airborne remote gas sensing system called realSens™, based on technologies developed under the Canadian Space Program and by Synodon scientists. The company currently provides advanced airborne pipeline integrity management services to the oil and gas sector through a suite of services including natural gas and liquid hydrocarbon leak detection, pipeline threat assessments, and waterway crossings analysis among others.
