O.I. Corporation Announces $5.68 Million Contract for MINICAMS®

College Station, Texas, August 28, 2009 - O.I. Corporation (NASDAQ: OICO) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, CMS Field Products, has received a contract for approximately $5.68 Million to provide a chemical agent monitoring system based on its MINICAMS® product.

Bechtel National, Inc., under contract with the U.S. Army, will purchase MINICAMS® and associated equipment from CMS for installation at the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant currently being constructed in Pueblo, Colorado. The equipment will be used primarily for low-level air monitoring at the facility to warn workers if there is an unexpected release of chemical agents during their destruction. CMS will begin work under the contract immediately, with partial shipments scheduled to occur over the next year and a half. Initial deliverables under the contract will be provided in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Don Segers, President and Chief Operating Officer, commented,

"We are very pleased that CMS has been awarded this contract to provide air-monitoring instruments for the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant. At CMS, we have over 20 years of experience in providing reliable chemical agent air-monitoring technology for projects both large and small. We believe that the selection of MINICAMS® for this vital role in ensuring worker safety is a strong endorsement of the innovative technology developed at OI. We take this responsibility very seriously and look forward to working with Bechtel on this significant demilitarization project for the U.S. Government."
