CEO Andy Carroll interview with Proactive on 21 Apr 25:
Proactive: So there's a five-well drilling program. Some of the factors that you're going to be considering are helium concentrations and reservoir pressure.
Are you encouraged by positive results from other operators in the same area as Vecta?
Andy Carroll: Yes, indeed. Blue Star, in a joint venture with Helium One, are reporting their drilling results, and thereβs a lot of lessons to be learned from each of these wells drilled.
Vecta and Blue Star drilled a well called Salmons last year, and everything was looking really good until they hit high CO2 and low helium content.
Weβre very keen on the Vecta prospects, which are further east near the Model Dome field.
That field was discovered and produced in the 1920s and had a much higher helium content, in the 7 to 11% range.
So weβre hopeful of higher helium concentrations further to the west. But each prospect has an individual character.
Itβs nice to have this package of five, and each one has its own exploration probability of success. But by drilling five, the odds are obviously significantly increased.
