and iteratively optimize the development plans for operators shale assets. Since we released the CYPHER service in September 2013 we have seen tremendous customer interest

Projects on shale assets in several North american basins have delivered a 35 percent production increase on average.

Devon Energy first applied the CYPHER service in the Grasslands Area of the Northern Barnett Shale.

After seeing improved production results and EURS with far less production variations between wells Devon has chosen to incorporate the CYPHER service in the Eagle Ford Shale as part of their technology efforts to help them better understand the reservoir

The CYPHER service is deployed to all major shale developments in North america and many key international markets through multi-disciplined technical teams with more than 300 technical professionals trained on major elements of the workflow w

The company has reported the successful application of its patented proprietary process for nickel extraction from laterites for the production of nickel sulfate.

This new concept was applied on laterites from Guatemala Cuba and the United states and achieved a nickel extraction ranging from 95%to 97%at ambient pressure and moderate temperature over a short period of time.

This approach has simplified greatly the collection of nickel from laterites as per the following table:

an underground network of limestone caves and cracks. The same limestone underlies the lake, and the scientists think that groundwater is bubbling up into the craters through cracks in the limestone rock.

At least one crater directly overlies a major earthquake fault. For instance, water inside Crazy crater is 47 degrees Fahrenheit (8. 4 degrees Celsius),

but the surrounding lake water is colder, at just 42 F (5. 8 C). Chemical markers in the local karst groundwater are also a match for water drawn from the craters,
