The board of directors of Anton Oilfield Services Group informed that the consolidated profit of the Group for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is expected to have a substantial increase as compared with the results of the Group for the same period of 2011. Such increase is mainly attributable to a substantial increase in revenue due to a rather full workload for the first half of the year, benefitting from the accelerated growth of natural gas development in China, the growing business volume in the overseas markets, the continued growth of the major services of the Group and the rapid introduction of new services.
