Quality is never an accident

From the CEO

Since Newpoint Gas was founded in 1999, our goal has remained to provide our customers with

the best natural gas treating equipment and service in our industry. After spending 25 years in this

business, the last nine years as Newpoint, we know we have achieved exactly that goal. In review

of 2007, Newpoint experienced a growth of over 250% in comparison to 2006, and 2006 was a

great year. While growth and revenue are important to the stability of our company, customer

satisfaction is the foundation on which everything is built. The testaments of the companies that

have given us the privilege to work with them are evidence of the level in which the people that

make up Newpoint perform.

Our company has been built on the quality and performance of our people and equipment and

we have taken that reputation and expanded it. Newpoint Gas has now gone back and utilized

the experience we garnered in the 1990s with the building of WRA, Inc. and started Newpoint

Midstream to capture Contract Gas Treating and Equipment Leasing opportunities so our

customers do not have to expend capital for the purchase of equipment. We are excited about the

gas treating projects that are being developed in the domestic and international market. Based on

the demand for natural gas, Newpoint is confident that we have every option covered to best serve

our customers.

Newpoint has also expanded its geographical area of operations in the last 12 months. In addition

to two offices in the Houston area of Texas and the office in London, we have added an operationsoffice in Brussels, Belgium and an engineering office in Mumbai, India. Our ability to provide

high quality equipment on a compressed schedule, beating our competitors to the market, we have

had to capture resources in different parts of the world. Based on these resources Newpoint can

engineer, manufacture and competitively deliver a gas processing facility to any country.

We are experiencing an exciting time in our industry and look forward to every challenge the

future holds. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our employees for their tremendous

efforts, our vendors for their assistance in helping us exceed our customers expectations, and

especially, our customers for giving us the opportunity to serve them.

Thank you,

Wiley Rhodes

All facilities provided by Newpoint may be put into service under a Contract Treating Agreement or an Equipmen

Lease. Newpoint is committed to providing Contract Treating and Lease opportunities for the oil and gas

industry. Forming a partnership with the producer provides both organizations the same goal, selling gas on

a consistent basis.

What does Newpoint provide in a Contract Treating Agreement?

Plant Equipment

Commissioning

Operational chemicals

Personnel

Maintenance

Repairs

Equipment modications

Benets of Contract Treating

No capital outlay for plant procurement and construction

Ability to expense 100% of contract treating fees

All environmental and regulatory permitting and compliance handled by Newpoint

99% guaranteed run-time (with nancial penalties for lack of performance)

Plant removal at end of term

Technical assistance and troubleshooting

Potential for expansion of plant capacity

Inventory of plant supplies and repair materials maintained by Newpoint

Operations and maintenance performed by qualied personnel

Capital Conservation

Oil & Gas Producers seem to prefer to retain capital for the exploration sector of their operations. Newpoints

contract treating and leasing programs enable the producer to concentrate on nding oil and gas reserves

instead of purchasing treating and processing equipment.

Flexibility in Operation and Maintenance

Cost effectiveness and production revenues are maximized by Newpoints engineering, operations, and

maintenance capabilities. A comprehensive technical eld staff and in house engineering are available fo

complete installation, service, and maintenance requirements. Rental equipment provides the producer the

luxury of changing, upgrading, or returning the equipment to Newpoint as conditions change.

Amine treating plants remove CO2

(carbon dioxide) and H2S (hydrogen sulde) from natural gas. Amine has a

natural afnity for both CO2and H

2S allowing this to be a very efcient and effective removal process. Newpoints

proprietary amine plant design is based on proven amine regeneration technology and incorporates severapatent-pending processes to improve the reliability and ease of operation.

Shortest Lead Time Possible

To meet the growing demands of industry,

Newpoint made a bold decision in 2005 to

standardize their designs, to build equipment on

speculation, and have plants ready for immediate

delivery. In 2006 and 2007, Newpoint further

optimized these units and reduced equipment

commissioning times by 50%.

Gas treating membrane systems provide a safe and efcient option for carbon dioxide and water vapor remova

from natural gas, especially in remote locations. Membrane systems are extremely adaptable to various gas

volumes, CO2

concentrations, and/or product-gas specications. A spiral wound cellulose acetate membrane

unit offers the greatest efciency per Mcf of product removed compared to any other competing CO2

remova

system.

Safe & Environmentally friendly

Minimal capital requirement

No emissions

H2S Scavenger Applications

Minimal gas pressure

High H2S concentration levels

Limited power availability

Remote treating locations

Safety

Safety is our main priority in every project involving hydrogen sulde. H2S scavengers chemically change the

deadly gas into a harmless compound that may be disposed of safely and in an environmentally sound manner

With the many choices and high operating costs characterized by many technologies, companies are faced with

the difcult choice of selecting the appropriate H2S removal system and hydrogen sulde scavenger. Newpoin

can assist in making this choice based on our extensive experience.

Reasons to remove oxygen from natural gas

When oxygen is found in a natural gas stream, it can cause various problems including degradation of process

chemicals (e.g. amine), increase corrosion in pipelines and exceed pipeline specications that are normally set

at 10 ppm. Traditionally, these gas streams are abandoned, but the X-O2TM system can treat these gas streams

so that they are viable and protable.

Benets

Treats gas at any volume

Ease of operation

Economical

Highly reliable

Reduces oxygen concentration to non-detectable levels

Wide range of allowable inlet gas concentrations

Newpoint Gas Services worked closely with several organizations to develop our proprietary oxygen elimination

process, X-O2TM. Gas elds contaminated with oxygen exist around the world, the most common being coa

mine and landll gas. Newpoints proprietary design has proven to be the most economical and reliable process

available to remove this contaminate. This patent-pending process has the potential to treat gas at any volume

or O2

concentration with ease of operation and minimal operating cost.

Arsenic Measurement

The ability to accurately measure arsenic concentrations in a gas stream has proven extremely difcult. Newpoint

offers arsenic measurement solutions utilizing a validated process with a 17 year history. We have procedures

and equipment that can measure arsenic levels to less than 0.1 g/m3. The rst arsenic removal system in the

world was installed in 1988 at the Abo Field in New Mexico by principals at Newpoint Gas Services.
