Rival Technologies Inc.-Breakthrough Reached in Oil Sands Technology

2007-01-16 06:00 ET - News Release

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/16/07

Rival Technologies Inc. (PINK SHEETS: RVTI) reports that it has received and analyzed additional data from tests conducted last month. The Company now owns an extremely valuable formula that represents a breakthrough for upgrading oil sands bitumen and heavy oil.

The invention is a method of upgrading heavy crude oil (HCO), especially high sulphur HCO, via the addition of our proprietary distillable recyclable additive (DRA) to form an HCO-DRA mixture. The HCO-DRA mixture is then heated and distilled to form a lower density, lower acidity, ash-free distillate containing less sulphur, having lower viscosity than the feed HCO and having lower olefin content than a distillate produced without DRA addition. Results include:

- 201% increase in API gravity of distillate;

- 99.9% reduction in viscosity of distillate;

- 88% reduction in acid content of distillate;

- 14% reduction in the olefin content of distillate.

Rival will now focus on a three-part strategy for 2007; complete the patent process to insure worldwide protection; enter into one or more partnerships with major oil producers; and continue ongoing testing aimed at optimizing the formula's value.

Rival Technologies Inc. is an innovative energy related technology company, investing in emerging technologies with extraordinary market potential. Cost reductions realized through improvements to existing heavy oil upgrading and refining processes position Rival Technologies Inc. to participate in an industry sector worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
