Working Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Sites Eliminate Haul-off, Reduce
Cost, and Improve Environmental Impact


ATLANTA--(Business Wire)--
MyCelx, the ISO-9001 company that is certified for oil removal to less than 5
ppm by Lloyd's Register, announces the success of a simple retrofit solution for
oil removal in produced water. 

MyCelx just confirmed results from three of its installations at Anadarko gas
production sites in Vernal, Utah. What the company found was that each site
benefited from eliminating the haul-off of produced water. Not having to haul
oily water and dispose of it at a distant site is saving these facilities at
least a combined $7 million annually. 

"We`re very pleased with performance of the MyCelx oil removal system so far,"
says William Perry, Water Facilities Supervisor, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation.


In addition to being able to discharge oil-free water safely into the
environment, the sites are also able to re-use the water when desired. 

"The beauty of the MyCelx module is that it works all the time without any
upset," says Connie Mixon, CEO of MyCelx. "You put a MyCelx de-oiling module at
the end of the line or before RO membranes, and suddenly the whole system
performs more efficiently." 

The MyCelx oil removal system is a self-contained module that can be easily
added to existing systems at the last stage prior to produced water discharge or
recycle. The MyCelx module`s oil removing capability continues to work even when
upstream equipment is failing. It guarantees no sheen on discharge. 

MyCelx looks forward to providing retrofit oil removal solutions at 3 more
Midwest locations by the end of this quarter. For further information about
