Bri-Chem Corp. ("Bri-Chem" or "Company") (TSX:BRY), a leading North American
wholesale distributor and manufacturer of oil and gas drilling fluids is pleased
to announce that it has completed the sale of its Steel Pipe Manufacturing
division and Steel Pipe Distribution division including their respective assets
and ongoing business operations to a USA based steel company. Bri-Chem will not
retain any steel pipe assets or conduct any further steel pipe business
operations going forward. The sale transaction provides Bri-Chem the opportunity
to further its North American drilling fluids growth strategy by expanding its
leadership position in existing markets and penetrating future growth into new
drilling fluid market segments.


"Bri-Chem's USA drilling fluids expansion success has led to an overabundance of
opportunities and this divestiture will position our company to deliver focused
organic and acquisitive growth on a sustainable basis," said Don Caron, Chief
Executive Officer of Bri-Chem. "We do not believe that the value of our North
American leading wholesale drilling fluids market position is being adequately
reflected in our stock price. By monetizing the steel pipe assets, we will be
able to unleash the growth potential that resides within our market leading
drilling fluids markets."
