CALGARY - Calfrac Well Services Ltd. reported a first-quarter profit of $7.8 million compared with a loss of $2.9 million a year earlier as its revenue rose 12 per cent.

The oilfield services company says the increase in revenue came from higher prices and activity in Argentina, offset in part by lower prices in North America.
