(COMTEX) Nutek Inc. Announces Acquisition of Crystal Resources and Ne
Nutek Inc. Announces Acquisition of Crystal Resources and New Management Team
for its Oil Operations in Texas

LAKE FOREST, CALIF. (May 28) BUSINESS WIRE -May 28, 1998--With the
acquisition of Crystal Resources Inc. and the installation of a new
management team, Nutek Inc. (OTCBB: NUTK) is entering a new phase of
production and development in South Texas.

In line with industry standards, Nutek has spent two years applying
and testing new technologies to the oil fields of South Texas. By
utilizing the data amassed by the prior management, Vac-U-Lift and
Crystal Resources, both subsidiaries of Nutek, are embarking on what is
and will be an endeavor to make its mark on the domestic oil and gas
industry.

New management will utilize the production data and equipment of
Vac-U-Lift and Crystal Resources to immediately insure commercial oil
production, with methodology of mobile production units (swabbing
units). The aforementioned production system was designed to lower the
costs of producing oil.

Hence, making marginal wells profitable and breathing life back into
today's oil patch, which largely consists of older wells and fields.
The results of these advanced systems have been mixed at best. With
some breakthroughs that have been made and with the new seasoned
management in place, the rewards and economic profits are rapidly
forthcoming. Nutek is now in the position to become a substantial oil
producer in Southern Texas.

The utilization of swabbing units and/or Mobil production units as a
means of producing oil in South Texas has yielded a by-product that is
a tremendous opportunity for Nutek. This "By-product" is vast amounts
of test data that depicts the characteristics of numerous formations
and oil fields throughout South Central Texas, accompanied by lease
acreage, drilling sites and the means via swabbing units to acquire
additional drilling locations.

Due to the emergence of a technological breakthrough that is just now
reaching its economically maturation, the sprawling operations of
Vac-U-Lift, in combination with Crystal Resources, has put Nutek in a
position for explosive growth.

This "mature technology" is horizontal drilling. Horizontal drilling
was first applied in South Texas in the late 1980s and early 1990s with
much publicity. Unfortunately, the results were disappointing for many
companies due to the fact that initial drilling costs and the cost of
capital were exorbitant. Even with these limiting factors, hundreds
upon hundreds of horizontal well-bores were drilled throughout South
Texas, yielding millions of barrels of oil.

Today, horizontal drilling costs have dropped over 70 percent.
Further, horizontal well-bores can be drilled more accurately, faster
and in multiple directions out of the same well bore. In essence,
horizontal technology has matured. Nutek is also maturing with its oil
subsidiaries in South Texas. Nutek has tested, produced and collected
data on a select number of oil fields that are prime candidates for the
application of horizontal technology.

With a new management team in place in Texas, the Nutek oil
subsidiaries will also be placing an emphasis on completing three
important projects, the first project being the Big Foot
infield-drilling program. The newly drilled well in Big Foot will be
completed and tested. The new management feels that the Big Foot
infield-drilling program holds a tremendous potential for additional
development. The second project is the Qualified Depth Swabbing
Operation of Crystal Resources. This program should yield excellent
cash flow. The third project consists of the acquisition of a
gathering company, which will greatly enhance profitability for the
Southern Texas operation.
