CONROE, Texas, Jan 07, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- SHMT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Shumate Industries (OTC Bulletin Board: SHMT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) announced today that its Hemiwedge Valve Corporation (HVC) subsidiary has been awarded an order for approximately $200 thousand from MPO, an oilfield services company based in South East Asia, for delivery by April, 2009.

The Company stated that the order's sizes range up to six inch bore size with various pressure classes up to ANSI 900 Class. The Hemiwedge(R) Cartridge valve product line will be utilized for drilling applications in the Pacific Rim area.

Mr. Christian Leuchtenberg, President of MPO, said, "We are pleased to award HVC this order for the Hemiwedge(R) Cartridge valve. Their product's cartridge feature is a big plus for our customers as the valves in this service are typically welded-in line. After witnessing a significant test run of the product in service, we realized the product design would hold up well in this difficult application that typically wears valves more frequently from the heavy mud and entrained solids that run through the lines."

The Company's current product line is two inch size through twelve inch (with custom sizes up to 20 inch) and pressure classes from ANSI 150 through 1500 class and API 6D monogrammed applications. Multiple internal trim packages are available including metal-to-metal seals for high temperature or severe service applications with timely deliveries.

Ken Chickering, HVC's President, said, "After our success domestically in this application with other companies, we are pleased that MPO placed an order for their needs in Asia. We look forward to additional business with MPO in 2009."

Mr. Chickering continued to note, "HVC anticipates a robust sales adoption for the Hemiwedge valve technology in 2009 and beyond as initial customers now place repeat orders and longer product test trials in new applications return with excellent results and end-user orders."

The Hemiwedge(R) Cartridge valve is an innovative design that incorporates the positive features of ball, gate, plug and high performance valves resulting in a mechanically sealing, tight shutoff valve with a simple operation that provides outstanding longevity and performance in a broad range of applications with minimal maintenance. The proprietary Cartridge technology encases all the internals of the valve within the Cartridge and allows in-line replacements, significantly reducing down-time and supply disruption, especially in higher maintenance service applications containing entrained solids such as line scale, sand, and debris.
