OUTLOOK
Industry expectations for western Canada for the remainder of 2012 are expected to be consistent or slightly reduced compared to activity experienced in the first half of 2012 and 2011. The Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contractors (CAODC) have forecast the number of wells to be drilled (on a completion basis) for 2012 to be 11,834 which is a 7% reduction from an earlier forecast for 2012. The Petroleum Services Association of Canada (PSAC) have forecast the number of wells to be drilled (on a rig released basis) for 2012 to be 13,150, which represents a slight increase over 2011. Continued low natural gas pricing is the primary factor impacting these historically low levels of activity.
It is expected that new rig builds for use in western Canada during 2012 will increase approximately 4% and will be focused on larger, heavier rigs with the capacity to drill long reach horizontal wells. Hyduke looks to continue to benefit from the increase in size of the western Canadian fleet. Hyduke continues to actively market its products and services to international markets in the Russian Federation, India, South America, North Africa, Middle East, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. While the project decision making cycle is longer on international work, active quoting continues on a significant number of international opportunities. In 2011, Hyduke was successful in winning over $50 million in turn-key equipment and services contracts for international customers. Approximately 80% of the revenues associated with these projects will be earned in fiscal 2012. It is expected that the volume and proportion of international revenues will continue as these international relationships are further developed.
The steady levels of industry activity forecast for 2012 and the increase in the activity in Hyduke's international sector will have far reaching effects in the Hyduke consolidated group of companies. Not only will the manufacturing segments of the organization benefit, but a positive impact will be felt in the Life Cycle Management businesses such as repair and maintenance, inspections and certification, and consumables. The Company will continue to focus on increasing market share through marketing Hyduke's Life Cycle Management and Single Source Supplier platforms to customers. These platforms benefit customers by offering continued support throughout the useful life of their equipment and by offering a wide array of consistent, reliable services from a single source.
Hyduke recognizes that it must continue to focus on all aspects of its operations in order to maximize its return and prepare itself for future industry declines. Operationally, we continue to focus on cost control, realizing on vertical integration opportunities and prudent cash management and investment. Specifically, we have identified a need for improved manufacturing efficiencies on larger projects and are very active implementing lean manufacturing concepts onto the manufacturing floor.
Hyduke has now experienced six profitable quarters in a row and we are expecting the remainder of 2012 to continue this trend. We are confident that the strong efforts of our sales and marketing team, management's continued focus fulfilling its strategic plan and the dedication of our employee base to customer service and satisfaction will position the company well in the future.
