TexCom, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TEXC) ("TexCom" or the "Company"), an environmental services company for the oil and gas industry, today announced that it has completed the drilling of a second disposal well at its M.B. Environmental Services waste disposal facility in Chambers County, Texas. The drill was conducted by Maverick Drilling Company.

Completion of the 2nd well is adding 7,500 Barrels per day to TexCom's permitted daily disposal capacity, a 50% increase over current levels. The combination of the increased disposal capacity and the expansion of receiving and processing facilities announced earlier will significantly impact offloading efficiency, resulting in time and cost savings for customers, according to Don Black, President of M.B. Environmental Services.

TexCom C.E.O. Lou Ross added, "Improving efficiency in offloading and disposing of our customers' Class II oilfield waste will provide benefits for both our customers and our selves. The additional temporary storage capacity that will be derived from the expansion of receiving facilities will allow us to increase our speed and efficiency and reduce the turnaround time for our customers. At the same time, we will be positioning ourselves to grow revenues in step with the continuing growth in oil and gas drilling activity we are forecasting for our marketing area."
