Charity Raises $3 Million
To Help Families In Need

HOUSTON-Nonprofit Oilfield Helping Hands has raised more than $3 million
since its formation to help individuals
and families in the oil field community
who are in financial crisis through no
fault of their own.
OHH relates it began as a single
fundraising effort centered on a sporting
event for one family. Since the success
and positive impact of that event inspired
OHH's formation, the nonprofit has grown
into a dedicated team of members, volunteers and corporate sponsors. It has
expanded from Houston into Oklahoma,
Acadiana, the Rocky Mountains, and
most recently, the Permian Basin, OHH
notes.
"We could not do anything without
the support of our sponsors, volunteers
and corporate members. It is humbling
to see how many people give their time,
energy and funds to help manage these
exciting and rewarding (fundraising)
events," says OHH President Gary Brooks.
"We all have been through hardship and
understand that life isn't perfect. For
people and families facing unexpected
bumps in the road, OHH is here to help."

Kosmos Reports Tortue-1 Finds More Hydrocarbons
DALLAS-The Tortue-1 exploratory
well has encountered additional hydrocarbons while drilling to total depth to evaluate
the deeper Albian stratigraphy, says Kosmos
Energy, which holds a 90 percent stake in
the well drilled off Mauritania.
Based on preliminary analysis, the
company says the well intersected 32
feet of net hydrocarbon pay in the lower
Albian section, which it interprets as gas.
The discovery complements the previously
announced 351 feet of net pay encountered
in the Cenomanian, which the company
points out was the primary objective.
Kosmos Energy says the well was drilled

beyond the primary objective to obtain
deeper stratigraphic information and to
enable seismic calibration of the Albian,
which will be tested in subsequent wells.
Located 177 miles southwest of Nouakchott, Mauritania's capital city, the Tortue1 was drilled by the Atwood Achiever
drill ship to a total depth of 16,700 feet.
"We are encouraged by the presence
of additional hydrocarbons in the deeper
portion of the well," says Brian F. Maxted,
Kosmos Energy's chief exploration officer.
"This suggests we have a working hydrocarbon system in both the Albian and
Cenomanian sequences."

Exterran Plans New Name For Its U.S. Business Unit
HOUSTON-After it achieves its plan
to separate the company's international
contract operations, internal aftermarket
services and global product line businesses
into a stand-alone company, Exterran
will rename its U.S. natural gas compression services business to Archrock.
"Archrock will continue to offer contract compression services utilizing the
country's largest fleet, well-established
relationships with original-equipment
manufacturers and distributors, and outstanding aftermarket parts and service
capability," assures Exterran President
and Chief Executive Officer Brad Childers.

He adds, "The Archrock name, with
its ties to the natural world and its message
of connection, is a fitting reflection of
the way we perform for our customers.
With 3.7 million operating horsepower
in our compression services fleet across
the United States, we are here for the
long term, connecting with our customers,
employees and communities."
Exterran says it expects the separation
to occur in the third quarter, and adds
that the company's global product lines
and non-U.S. services will continue to
be called Exterran.
