Landfill And Date Of Release Of First Quarter Results

CALGARY, May 3 /CNW/ - Secure Energy Services Inc. ("Secure" or the "Corporation") (TSX - SES) announced today that it has acquired the operating assets of Pembina Area Landfill Ltd. a subsidiary of Clean Harbors Inc. for a purchase price of $11.75 million (excluding transaction costs), which Secure paid in cash. The landfill is located approximately 60 kms northwest of Drayton Valley, AB in the Pembina oilfield.

Historical financial:

For the 12 months ended December 31, 2009, Pembina Area Landfill Ltd's revenue from operations was approximately $7 million and earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was approximately $3.6 million (unaudited).

About Pembina Area Landfill:

The Pembina Area Landfill consists of two separate landfill cells. A Class II cell, similar to those operated by Secure at South Grande Prairie and Willesden Green, will provide disposal of non-dangerous reclamation solids and drill cuttings to surrounding oil and gas customers. A Class I landfill, one of only two facilities licensed in the Province of Alberta, will accept industrial hazardous solids and dangerous oilfield wastes. The Class I landfill design consists of an engineered clay liner, two synthetic liners, leak detection, leachate collection system and a series of environmental monitoring programs.

"This acquisition expands our footprint to 10 facilities and gives us operational flexibility for Secure's internal treated solids. The external solids market continues to grow in the maturing western Canadian basin. This acquisition is strategic for Secure in that it gives Secure an immediate presence in the Pembina Cardium market. This is a well established market place with exciting opportunities presented by the increased use of multi-stage horizontal fracs to improve recovery in a major Canadian oilfield," said Rene Amirault, President and Chief Executive Officer of Secure. "The Pembina field is well delineated with vertical wells and has considerable infrastructure in place to facilitate new horizontal development."

Date of release of First Quarter results

Secure intends to release its First Quarter results on Tuesday, May 11, 2010 after the close of the market.
