ESD is a great fit with HMH and propels us forward with the next level of technology in pressure control and drilling.

We are excited about this transaction and welcome ESD into the HMH family.'
John Dale, Chief Executive Officer of ESD stated: 'ESD has been a long-term believer and proponent of this technology. Joining with a well-known and established manufacturer like HMH is something we are extremely happy about. This will allow us to take the technology out to the market with a respected partner.'
