Secure Energy Services Inc. ("Secure" or the "Corporation") (TSX:SES) is pleased
to announce its 2014 capital budget. The 2014 capital budget is a continuation
of the Corporation's strategy to: design, construct and expand facilities in key
under-serviced markets in both Canada and the United States; reduce waste,
recycle and reuse fluids at Secure facilities; and to provide full cycle
environmental and midstream solutions in the energy services market.


The Corporation's Board of Directors has approved an initial 2014 capital budget
of $225 million aligned with this strategic focus. Included in the $225 million
is $20 million of carry over capital from 2013 projects related to the Edson,
Kindersley and Keene full service terminals ("FSTs"). The remaining $205 million
of the Corporation's capital budget consists of new facilities, expansions and
equipment in strategic growth and expansion areas in both Canada and the United
States. 


The Corporation expects to invest the $225 million capital budget as follows:

Processing Recovery and Disposal ("PRD") division capital budget of $205 million
allocated as follows:




--  Growth capital of $155 million consisting of: 
    --  Carryover capital of $20 million relating to the completion of three
        FST's; 
    --  Construction of the Corporation's first full service rail ("FSR")
        facility; 
    --  One FST and two stand-alone water disposal ("SWD") facilities; 
    --  Converting two existing SWD's to FST's; 
    --  Construction of one land fill; 
    --  Water and oil recycling initiatives and long lead items;
--  Expansion capital of $45 million relating to additional truck unload
    stations, tanks, treaters, pumps and disposal wells; and 
--  Sustaining capital of $5 million for normal course maintenance
    operations.



Drilling Services ("DS") division capital budget of $14 million allocated as
follows:




--  Growth capital of $14 million consisting of an oil based mud blending
    plant and rental equipment.



Onsite Services ("OS") division capital budget of $6 million allocated as follows:



--  Growth capital of $6 million consisting of heavy duty equipment and
    specialized tools for ongoing onsite projects.



In conjunction with the recently completed $110 million equity financing, the
Corporation has approximately $140 million drawn on its total available
revolving credit facility of $400 million, with an available $50 million
accordion. The Corporation intends to fund the 2014 capital budget with cash
flow from operations and the amount available on the revolving credit facility. 


The organic growth and expansion capital detailed above will enhance our
competitive positioning and expand our service offerings both in Canada and the
US. The Corporation's PRD division is a capital intensive business requiring
upfront lead time to obtain the appropriate regulatory approvals, order the
necessary long lead items and construct the facilities. Given the approval and
construction timelines for these types of facilities, it is expected that the
majority of the above capital program for 2014 will not have any cash flow
impact until 2015. Achieving the above capital program will present new growth
platforms for Secure, its customers and shareholders, consistent with the
Corporation's focused strategy of helping its customers with new facilities and
services in both under-serviced and capacity constrained markets. 


Update on 2013 capital budget

The Corporation is expecting capital expenditures (excluding acquisitions) of
approximately $195 million for the year ended December 2013, which is in-line
with previously announced budgeted amounts and expectations. This amount
includes long leads for the 2014 capital budget.
