First Helium Engages Drilling Rig for New Oil Wells at Worsley
First Helium Moves Forward with Drilling Operations
CALGARY, Alberta — First Helium Inc. (“First Helium” or the “Company”) (TSXV: HELI) (OTCQB: FHELF) (FRA: 2MC) has taken a significant step in its drilling program by securing a drilling contractor for its 7-15 high-impact exploration site and the proven undeveloped 7-30 oil location. The contractor's rig is presently engaged with another operator in the area. However, the Company anticipates that it will arrive at the 7-30 site and commence drilling within the next two weeks, depending on weather conditions and any unexpected delays.
Strategic Operations and High Potential
Ed Bereznicki, President & CEO of First Helium, expressed enthusiasm about the drilling operations saying, "We are very excited to be moving ahead with the drilling of our 7-30 PUD well along with our high-impact Leduc anomaly, 7-15, which on seismic indicates an area approximately five times larger than our successful 1-30 light oil pool discovery. This arrangement allows us to minimize mobilization costs and ensures a seamless drilling operation between both wells." The operations at both well sites have already started, with preparations being made to ensure a smooth start to drilling.
Efficient Drilling Transition
The proximity of the two locations, roughly 6 kilometers apart, is advantageous, allowing for a smooth transition between drilling operations. As the drilling progresses, the Company is making necessary arrangements to complete and tie-in both wells effectively before the annual spring breakup in Alberta, a time when heavy equipment movement is limited due to provincial regulations.
Company Growth and Exploration Strategy
First Helium is dedicated to becoming a leading independent helium provider in North America. The company holds over 53,000 acres along the promising Worsley Trend in Northern Alberta, which serves as the foundation for its exploration and development drilling activities. Building upon its previous successful wells, First Helium has identified several follow-up drilling locations, bolstered by an extensive infrastructure aimed at facilitating ongoing exploration and development.
Cash Flow from Successful Operations
The cash flow generated from the successful oil wells strategically supports First Helium’s growth strategy in exploration and development. This financial support fuels the identification of further oil drilling locations on its expansive Worsley land base. The company’s commitment to exploring these locations aligns with its goal to enhance value for its shareholders through increased production and operations.
