CALGARY--Dynetek Industries Ltd. ("Dynetek"), a leader in developing, producing and marketing lightweight compressed natural gas (CNG) and compressed hydrogen storage cylinders, announced today that it has delivered its first Natural Gas Bulk Transport (BT) modules to the United States using Dynetek's U.S. Department of Transport (DOT) certified cylinders to Compressed Energy Systems LLC of Eldorado, Illinois. Dynetek's BT modules will be used by Compressed Energy Systems LLC to transport Natural Gas from stranded gas reservoirs.

Currently, Dynetek is the only company to have Type 3 light-weight U.S. DOT approved Natural Gas Bulk Transportation (BT) modules. The lightweight BT modules are ideally suited for transportation on trucks for land distribution, or on barges to supply CNG inland, or to coastal locations where pipeline infrastructure is not established. Lightweight transport modules offer significant payload capacity. "The advantages of using Dynetek's lightweight modules in the bulk transport of Natural Gas is the increased amount of gas transported with each load," said Chris Schimp, President, Compressed Energy Systems LLC.

The unique storage advantage of the BT System is Dynetek's DyneCell(R) cylinder, which is made from a seamless, thin wall aluminum liner covered with a full carbon fibre over-wrap. DyneCell cylinders are extremely lightweight, non-permeable, and exhibit limited expansion under pressure and temperature change. DyneCell cylinders have received approval from the US Department of Transport for the transport of a variety of gases, such as: Natural Gas (Methane), Hydrogen (H2), Helium, Nitrogen, Oxygen, or Compressed Air.

Dynetek's BT Systems are available in a variety of configurations, depending on the quantity of gas to be transported. Each BT module can be isolated for individual use or all three modules can be used to increase gas flow rates. Individual modules can be removed from the trailer to accommodate maintenance or special road loading requirements, with customized trailers and BT module configurations available upon request.

Dynetek's BT Systems offer an "Instant Infrastructure(TM)" solution for the bulk transportation of compressed gases," said Christian Rasche, Dynetek's President and CEO. "These are our first BT modules transporting Natural Gas in the U.S.A. and the growth of this segment of our business, will enable us to continue to diversify our market base." Dynetek's BT and MRFS solutions have been supplied to industrial gas users for the transport of Helium and Oxygen to Industrial Gas customers.

Dynetek's BT System provides an alternative, cost effective development solution for gas markets, while acting as "Instant Infrastructure(TM)" instead of pipelines, by making CNG, H2 and other industrial gases immediately accessible to end users.

Dynetek Industries Ltd. designs, produces and markets one of the lightest and most advanced fuel storage and refueling systems for compressed natural gas, low emission vehicles and compressed hydrogen, zero-emission fuel cell vehicles. Dynetek is recognized around the world for its solutions-of-choice to the alternate fuel vehicle sector, evidenced by strategic relationships with major manufacturers around the globe. Dynetek is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, symbol: DNK.
