@ Noob, Friday was manic,
I watched some of STs favorite TA, all the videos were guys trading the downward trend, real eye opener.
And of course as some have already posted delays will see dips.
I watched like a rabbit in a cars headlights..
Rescued the day with another walk, extra long ;)

Hope there are not too many errors as its all learning for me, time to get some beers I think.

Mitchells been in Tanzania already

TANZANIA: Mitchell Drilling Tanzania commences operations for Acacia Mining at Bulyanhulu, Tanzania.

Found this article Ruwka Rifts, Heritage Oil

They struck it lucky, no doubt about that..hopefully we are going to feel that luck..
Mind is drained after all the reading, could never do a full day in school..

Watching the interview and Reading the comments from everybody today...especially ST, micktrick
I have had a best guess at Noobs points, feel free to correct..

So seals for the oil, gives evidence for seals for helium?
I guess so as they use the same methods and technology to find them, and similar descriptions to describe them.

A seal is a seal is a seal?
There are different grades of seals, including clay, shale, salt, grade A being the salt horizons at the other fields..
But I found Bentonite clay which DM mentioned is used for CO2 gas capture, and an effective barrier to Nitrogen.
Nitrogen is our carrier gas for Helium, so I assume if the Nitrogen is trapped so is the Helium, but I need to look that up.
Faults can be seals and also migration paths, I think thats a risk here

Shallow drilling, how long does it take to get there, anyone have knowledge or opinion for :
I guess its a month to setup site, spud, drill 100-150/m(micks comments),carry out tests, and activities for vacating site, and leaving it ready for appraisals
I believe max depth is 1200, so maybe 10 -12 days drilling,
1. gas in muds?
DM said this was real time sampling of mud cuttings
2 . Discovered reservoir.,
looks like there two targets at Tai, I dont know if they would stop if the upper target was a hit, I guess they would, anybody?

From hitting the ground, if it's three RNS it will come pretty quickly together?
Looks like there could be more, Total Depth and I guess spud, maybe party invitations

I doubt anybody is going to look at this, but you never know..Galula well cross-section

@ST DM mentioned neutrons for measurement, The NMR tool, saying they needed to adjust the tool and their mind set as helium absorbs the neutrons differently from hydrocarbons, using it to detect water or gas in rock pores..

Renergen's methane turned out to be helium rich.:)

Sure I read that close to the volcanic activity CO2 is the main gas produced and not so good for helium, but as you move further away things improve and Rukwa is the sweet spot.

Fingers crossed this active rift is going to be the first commercially viable one, and those faults are not too leaky..

I guess heritage oil found those traps were full of useless nitrogen, and few other gases, and moved on ;)

Three types of Discovery, i guess thats 3x RNS?
1. show-gas in mud, from cuttings sampled in real-time
2. discovery- reservoir(including seal) identified in wirel-ine
3.Flow - gas ratio sample,%

Wells to be bridge plugged waiting for appraisal, Sept-Nov

I know they also use the helium to purge the fuel tanks, being inert there is no chance of a reaction and an unexpected take off..

Its okay, I have been at this stuff for weeks, its not sticking,,,,neither is the idea of boiling tea bags at -269c..
Was shamed when DM said he does not need to highlight those cross-sections features, first thing that came to mind was a new t-shirt design, then a trendy horse blanket..
Confused bentonite with benetton
age, vision and hearing, not the best anymore

Gas breakthrough tests show that no continuous gas flow was detected during the entire gas breakthrough test (until the gas pressure of 10 MPa), which indicates that the compacted bentonite/sand mixture has a good sealing ability after full saturation.
I think putting 10mpa in your tire will blow it to pieces and send the whole car to the moon, will test it out later..

Listening I guess the trap styles are a combination of the both..
Picture of the horse pattern the mentions, think its suitable
https://www.researchgate.net/figure/A-An-example-of-a-typical-dextral-strike-slip-fault-system-and-the-associated-horsetail_fig4_312912589

DM mentions Bentonite, after a lot of confusion I have decided this is a very absorbent clay formed from volcanic ash, with low permeability meaning it does not pass on fluids to adjacent layers very easily.. It is used as a barrier when storing radioactive waste and as drilling mud..
ahhh,, Ordinary clay can be used for carbon capture, Many materials are being tested for the purpose of capturing CO2. New results show that ordinary clay can work just as effectively as more advanced materials.

This picture shows the two traps styles shown at Tai
The dome or anticline, as shown in the presentation, right hand cross-section, strike line, horizontal and perpendicular to the dip.
The fault trap, to the left, sealed by a different layer slipping into a position that forms an impermeable barrier

Strike & dip line as mentioned in describing Tai, helps orientate the geological cross-sections

I watched up until the neon section, then jump to 45.53, from here is some interesting seismic super plume mapping..
Rungwe is on the map, for a little orientation

Everything i read feels like the first time, i tend to forget what i have forgotten, i think.
Twohearts posted the same doc, chapter 9, 9.1 pilot production plant , description there..

The Linde equipment description matches that in admission document

"bridge plug" v plug..
Recently found out they plug a well before abandoning
Cap a well ready for further work...
So was going to sell if a plug was mentioned in the RNS, but luckily DM said they will use a "bridge plug" on the wells waiting for appraisal driling..Phew..

I see, I have pages to search through to find that video on the EARS, rifting. ST posted
Its the excitement long v short, playing the highs and lows..
I have just been holding boring, but I am in unfamiliar territory, and I dont know who the wolves in sheeps clothing are, think we have a few here

That was a an uplifting walk, missed out the dip though...

investors mentioned
And video is not from November this time, if it was I could blame ST as he posted it..
