   BOOTS & COOTS REPORTS OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31,
                                      2004


HOUSTON  (May  12, 2004) - Boots & Coots International Well Control, Inc. (Amex:
WEL),  reported  today that revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 2004,
were  $4.4  million,  a  decrease of $6.5 million compared with revenue of $10.9
million  for  the  same  period  in  2003.  Earnings  before  interest,  taxes,
depreciation  and  amortization (EBITDA) were $0.6 million in the current period
compared  to  $4.3 million in the same period for the prior year. Net income for
the  current  period was $8 thousand versus a net income of $3.3 million for the
prior year period. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $0.1 million
for  the  current  period  compared  to  a  net  income  attributable  to common
stockholders  of  $2.6  million  in  the  prior  year  period.

"As we expected and stated in our March earnings call, the first quarter of this
year  reflected  a  decrease in prevention service revenues from the prior year.
However, excluding an equipment sale associated with our work in Iraq during the
first quarter of last year, prevention service revenues increased $0.1 million,"
stated Jerry Winchester, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We expect these
non-event  revenues  to  improve  in  the  second quarter and, for the year, our
expectation  remains  that  the expansion of existing SafeGuard services and the
development  of new SafeGuard locations will expand our base prevention revenues
to  the  point  they  will  sustain  the company's operations, with any response
revenues  having  a  positive  impact  on  the  bottom  line."

Operational  highlights  include:

-    Prevention  revenues  were  $2.13 million for the first quarter compared to
     $8.66  million  for  the first quarter of 2003. Included in 2003 is a $6.63
     million  equipment  sale  related  to  the Restore Iraq Oil (RIO) contract.



-    Response  revenues  were flat at $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2004
     and  2003.
-    At  March 31, 2004 the company reported working capital of $7.5 million and
     total  debt of $11.9 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was
     $1.1  million  in  the  quarter.
