Select Sands Corp. has appointed Daniel A. Gillett as chairman of the board.

Daniel Gillett brings more than 30 years experience serving as a director, investment banker, consultant, and senior executive, including serving as chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Throughout his career he has completed over $15 billion in financing, restructuring and merger and acquisition transactions, with the majority of those efforts being across all sectors of the oil and gas industry. Appointed to the board of directors of Select Sands in March, his business experience, leadership skills and commitment to work with both Select Sands’ board of directors and its senior management team, make Gillett the right choice to act as chairman of the board. Daniel Gillett received his MBA from Harvard Business School in finance and a BBA in accounting from Harding University.

“Mr. Gillett’s leadership skills and business acumen have already made a significant impression within the board of directors and senior management. He has the commitment and skill to lead the board and interact with senior management to guide the future of the company and increase shareholder value. We are delighted to have him appointed as chairman of the board and look forward to working more closely with him. We are confident Gillett’s experience in the oil and gas industry and his past successes in financing and recapitalization transactions will be beneficial to Select Sands’ execution of its business strategy as it moves forward,” said Zig Vitols, president and CEO of Select Sands.

The company plans to immediately build a new stand-alone 400,000-ton-per-year production facility (comprising both wet and dry processing capability) to be located on the Independence property, and it is anticipated to be completed in the second half of 2018. The expansion project’s estimated cost of $4-million to $4.5-million USD is anticipated to be financed through bank financing.
