First Helium Accelerates Drilling Ventures for Permitting Gains
First Helium Advances Drilling Projects for Oil Production
CALGARY, Alberta -- First Helium Inc. (TSXV: HELI) (OTCQB: FHELF) (FRA: 2MC) has recently gained regulatory approval for two significant drilling projects aimed at tapping into the promising light oil reserves located at Worsley. The company is gearing up for the drilling of its 7-15 exploration well, alongside previously licensed proven undeveloped well, the 7-30, which has been associated with attractive undeveloped reserves estimated at approximately 196,700 barrels by Sproule Associates Limited, an independent evaluator.
Strategic Moves for Efficient Drilling Operations
First Helium is currently in the process of securing the necessary drilling and related services to ensure both wells are drilled in a cost-effective and efficient manner. In anticipation of the drilling process, construction has already started at the 7-30 location, marking an important step towards contributing to the company’s operational capabilities in the area.
Ed Bereznicki, President & CEO, expressed confidence in the future potential, stating, "With our drilling license secured for the high-impact 7-15 location, we are poised to move forward with acquiring the essential services for both critical wells. Success in these projects would not only generate immediate cash flow but would also enhance shareholder value significantly. Furthermore, it paves the way for the development of ten additional, lower-risk drilling locations that have shown great promise.”
Exploration and Future Drilling Potential
The company's projections are promising, as they have identified ten primary drilling targets in the Leduc area using advanced interpretations of their proprietary 3D seismic data. Success in the current drilling program is expected to mitigate the risks associated with these identified locations, allowing for substantial follow-up development.
Each of these identified drilling sites has the potential to tap into multiple shallow formations that are historically known for oil production, as well as helium-rich natural gas deposits along the vast Peace River Arch. This innovative strategy seeks to unlock hydrocarbons from these zones through the same wellbore, or potentially through the drilling of additional wells to facilitate discovery and development.
Robust Historical Performance Fuels Confidence
Insights from previous drilling efforts in the area, notably the 1-30 and 4-29 Leduc oil wells, underline the potential for significant production results. Collectively, these two wells have yielded over 113,000 barrels of light oil and have generated upwards of $13 million in revenue and $8 million in cash flow. This solid performance showcases First Helium's ability to correlate seismic data with economically viable hydrocarbon reserves.
With high ownership over its exploration lands, the company is in a strong position to maintain growth momentum through strategic partnerships aimed at accelerating the development of its assets.
