                          DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

     Pursuant to Registration Statement No. 333-58210 on Form S-8 (the
"Registration Statement") first filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on April 3, 2001, OSCA, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("OSCA"),
registered 1,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, to be offered
under the OSCA Stock Compensation Plan.

     On February 20, 2002, BJ Services Company ("BJ Services"), OSCA and BJTX,
Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of BJ Services ("Merger Sub"), entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") providing for a merger
pursuant to which Merger Sub would merge with and into OSCA, with OSCA surviving
as a wholly owned subsidiary of BJ Services (the "Merger"). The Merger became
effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State
of the State of Delaware on May 31, 2002.

     As a result of the Merger, OSCA has terminated all offerings of OSCA
securities under its existing registration statements, including the
Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking by OSCA in the
Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective
amendment, any of the securities which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering, OSCA hereby removes from registration all securities registered under
the Registration Statement which remain unsold as of the date hereof.
