FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
ANNOUNCES ASSIGNMENT OF CAPITAL LEASE
HOUSTON, TEXAS – September 23, 2003


Flotek Industries, Inc. (“Flotek”) announced that effective August 1, 2003, it has assigned the $1,398,000 capital lease associated with the property located in Duncan, Oklahoma for its discontinued operations of Equipment Specialties, Inc. (“ESI”) to Special Equipment Manufacturing, Inc. (“SEM”). To effect this assignment, Flotek, agreed to pay Oklahoma Facilities LLC (“Facilities”) an additional $91,000 of rent for the 17 month rental period beginning March 1, 2002 and ending July 31, 2003 in 6 equal installments beginning November 15, 2003. The additional rent is as if the full rental rate had been charged for this period versus a reduced figure as originally stated in the lease agreement between ESI and Facilities. In addition, ESI assigned its US and Foreign rights to the pending Mobile Blending Apparatus patent to SEM. With the lease assignment and the sale of assets completed to SEM, the ESI business has been successfully assumed by SEM and Flotek did not record any additional loss on disposal of discontinued operations as a result of these transactions.

Jerry D. Dumas, Sr., Chairman and CEO, stated “The assignment of the ESI capital lease to SEM removes a significant liability from the consolidated balance sheet of Flotek and will improve Flotek’s cash flow”.

Flotek is a publicly traded company involved in the manufacturing and marketing of innovative downhole equipment, specialty chemicals, and the engineering, design and construction of facilities for cementing and stimulation materials. Flotek serves major and independent companies in the international oilfield service industry.
