Canadian subsidiary Simark Controls receives CAD 1.4 million follow up order from Oil Producer

Simark Controls Ltd., a subsidiary of SFC Energy, has received a major follow-up order for their proprietary Variable Frequency Drive systems (VFDs) from an Alberta Oil Producer. The order amounts to approx. CAD 1.4 million. This is a new order by the same oil producer who had already placed a CAD 2.0 million order for the same systems earlier this year.

Brunnthal/Munich, Germany, May 16, 2017 – Simark Controls Ltd., a subsidiary of SFC Energy, leading provider of hybrid power solutions to the stationary and mobile power generation markets, has received a major follow-up order for their proprietary Variable Frequency Drive systems (VFDs) from an Alberta Oil Producer. The order amounts to approx. CAD 1.4 million. This is a new order by the same oil producer who had already placed a CAD 2.0 million order for the same systems earlier this year.

The VFD Systems are designed and manufactured by Simark Controls to operate electric submersible pumps (ESPs) used to artificially lift heavy oil from the client’s Northern Alberta well-pad locations. The client selected Simark Control’s VFD Systems, because their unique installation and operations benefits significantly reduce the installation and operating costs. Additional benefits are improved pump uptimes, optimized pump operation and augmented oil production.

“We are excited to have won this new order so shortly after the first order”, says Martin Curtis, President and General Manager of Simark Controls. “This is clear proof that our customized systems deliver the operation advantages, performance benefits, and cost reductions the client had requested.”
