The average price of natural gas increased by 12 percent and the average price of oil increased by approximately 28 percent during 2010 compared to the prior year. In conjunction with the increase in natural gas prices, the average domestic rig count during 2010 was 41 percent higher than in 2009. This increase in drilling activity had a positive impact on our financial results. We believe that our activity levels are affected more by the price of natural gas than by the price of oil, because the majority of U.S. domestic drilling activity relates to natural gas, and many of our services are more appropriate for gas wells than oil wells. International revenues, which increased from $44.8 million in 2009 to $54.9 million in 2010, were five percent of consolidated revenues. These international revenue increases were due mainly to higher customer activity levels in Canada and Qatar, compared to the prior year. Our international revenues are impacted by the timing of project initiation and their ultimate duration.

This improvement was due to increased revenues and lower, as a percentage of revenues, costs of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation expense.
