Toronto, Ontario & New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - February 20, 2014) - Micromem Technologies Inc. (CSE: MRM) (OTCQB: MMTIF) ("Micromem") through its wholly owned subsidiary Micromem Applied Sensor Technologies Inc. (MAST), is pleased to announce that Steven Van Fleet, President of MAST, and Dr. Brian Von Herzen, Chief Technology Officer of MAST have been invited to attend the Reservoir Nanoagents, Taming Complexities on Road the Deployment Workshop hosted in Dubai on February 22-26. The invitation was extended by two of the major oil and gas companies that have contracted MAST to develop a particle tracer technology and particle sensor detection platform that was successfully demonstrated and approved on February 6, 2014. News on this accomplishment will be the subject of a separate release. During the development of the particle tracer technology several problems were encountered in the particles themselves that MAST engineers solved and as a result, this new intellectual property (IP) owned by Micromem has opened more opportunities with all four oil companies that are currently contracting MAST to do work. This new IP will be the subject of our presentation in Dubai, and will also provide Micromem the opportunity to showcase our technology to the entire industry.

Micromem was invited to address the attendees on this innovation to discuss the recent product development and how it helps the industry overcome some of the challenges of scaling the deployment of nanoparticles.

Micromem is proud that it has been working with the industry leaders and has been selected as a company capable of delivering on complex problems. Having our technology integrated in the systems of fortune 20 oil companies on a global scale is a clear validation of our solutions.
