Weir  is  today  hosting  a  seminar  for  analysts  and investors to provide an
overview of the operations, markets and medium term outlook for its upstream oil
and  gas  equipment  businesses.   Steve  Noon,  Oil  &  Gas Divisional Managing
Director,  will provide an overview of the division and the upstream oil and gas
markets,  specifically  the  pressure  pumping  equipment  market.  The Weir SPM
management  team will  provide an  overview of  operations, noting the business'
market  leadership position in one  of the fastest growing  upstream oil and gas
sectors,  with growth in the installed  base and increased operating intensities
driving  further aftermarket opportunities and an accelerated original equipment
replacement  cycle. Richard Spears, of leading  oil and gas research consultancy
Spears and Associates Inc, will present his view on the outlook for the pressure
pumping market through 2015.

Keith  Cochrane,  Chief  Executive,  will  conclude by highlighting the positive
fundamentals   underpinning   the   medium  term  outlook  for  Weir's  upstream
operations,  noting  strong  current  market  conditions  supported  by  further
increases  in  the  US  horizontal  rig  count  in  April and May.  He will also
announce  that  plans  are  now  being  developed  to further expand capacity to
support the ongoing growth of the business.
