WELLINGTON, Fla., April 24, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KLX Inc. ("KLX") (Nasdaq:KLXI), the world's leading distributor and value added service provider of aerospace fasteners and consumables, and a provider of services and products for the oil and gas industry, announces an additional expansion of its ESG business.
Amin Khoury, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of KLX commented, "While industry peers are scaling back operations in reaction to lower oil prices and the budget cuts related thereto, we have been able to capitalize on several unique opportunities by bringing on a number of excellent, experienced industry specialists, and expanding our business into the Casper, Riverton and Rock Springs, Wyoming markets." Mr. Khoury continued, "The addition of these personnel and facilities to our existing operations in Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico has solidified KLX's position as one of the leading service providers in one of the top producing regions in the country. These actions are consistent with similar investments which we have made in our other geographic regions during this period of contraction by essentially all of our competition. In addition, we are continuing to identify and evaluate new service technologies which will help us to expand our service offerings in new and existing markets."
