Telvent System Chosen to Support Routine Operations
       Efficiency and Provide World-Class Responsiveness and
                           Coordination

ROCKVILLE, Md., Feb. 15, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Telvent
(Nasdaq:TLVT), the IT company for a sustainable and secure world,
announced today that it has been awarded a contract by Infraero, the
Brazilian Company for Airport Infrastructures, to deliver a new,
digital radio communications network to 18 Brazilian airports.
Telvent's communications technology was selected for the reliability
and security it has demonstrated in deployments by AENA, Spain's global
airport and air navigation services operator.

The standards-compliant Telvent platform affords privacy and security,
and its high availability will improve communications efficiency and
service to air travelers during routine airport operations at these
Brazilian airports. This robust functionality also will assure
communications reliability in emergencies or events when a high level
of coordination of activities and processes is necessary. The system's
demonstrated performance will help manage the significant air traffic
associated with the 2014 World Cup tournament, recently awarded to
Brazil.

According to Ignacio Gonzalez, Telvent's CEO, "This project reflects
our commitment to Brazil and its infrastructure, destined to serve many
world-class events in the future. The Telvent telecommunications system
selected by Infraero is designed to interface with other standardized
information systems and enable effective joint communications among
different entities and agencies. Its modular design makes it scalable
and a long-lived solution that Infraero will count on as Brazil's
airport operations continue to grow."

This project adds to Telvent's portfolio of telecommunications
solutions deployed worldwide to optimize management of airport
functions, reduce operating costs, improve services to airport
customers and enhance security of facilities and assets.
