Ternitz, 27 February 2017: Schoeller-Bleckmann Oilfield Equipment AG (SBO) has

been informed on 24 February 2017 and announces pursuant to Sec 93 (2) BoerseG
that Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited, acting also for its affiliates and as
discretionary investment manager on behalf of multiple managed portfolios
("AAML"), holds, through investment funds and client accounts under management,
676,640 shares representing 4.23% of the voting rights in SBO as at 22 February
2017.

In total, AAML holds 705,172 shares, representing 4.41% of the total capital of
SBO, which includes 28,532 lent shares where AAML has the right to recall.

As of 22 February 2017, the split of the shares with voting rights is as
follows:
o 676,640 shares, representing 4.23% of the voting rights
o 28,532 shares which are out on loan and where AAML retains the right
to recall, representing 0.18% of the voting rights (classed as a financial
instrument).

The shares are held by Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (3.37% of the voting
rights plus 0.18% lent shares) and Aberdeen Asset Investments Limited (0.86% of
the voting rights).

Therefore, the total share position (less rights to recall lent shares) has
increased above the threshold of 4% according to Article 91 BoerseG.

In addition, SBO has been informed that AAML failed to disclose crossing below
the 4% threshold in course of an event taken place in September 2016 and
therefore discloses as follows:

As of 22 September 2016, the split of the shares with voting rights was as
follows:
o 624,487 shares, representing 3.90% of the voting rights
o 181,866 shares which were out on loan and where AAML retained the
right to recall, representing 1.14% of the voting rights (classed as a financial
instrument).

The shares were held by Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (2.90% of the voting
rights plus 1.14% lent shares) and Aberdeen Asset Investments Limited (1.00% of
the voting rights).

Prior to this event, the split of the shares with voting rights was as follows:
o 674,487 shares, representing 4.22% of the voting rights
o 131,866 shares which were out on loan and where AAML retained the
right to recall, representing 0.82% of the voting rights (classed as a financial
instrument).

On 28 October 2016, SBO disclosed the following shareholding of AAML as of 24
October 2016:
o 606,688 shares, representing 3.79% of the voting rights
o 181,465 shares which were out on loan and where AAML retained the
right to recall, representing 1.13% of the voting rights (classed as a financial
instrument).

The percentages have been calculated on the basis of the number of voting rights
of SBO as of the respective date (16,000,000).
