EWT research on Sagebrush data points to 1,000+ MCF/d27 Feb 2026 13:09
As weβre nearing final approval for Sagebrush and commencement of the EWT, Iβve shared some detailed research into some of the figures we could expect to see during the upcoming EWT at Sagebrush β with both the TG group and on X below:

I spent a lot of time digging into O&G wells and fields in the 4C region of the US, as well as looking at reservoir characteristics, formulas and so on β all with the aim of trying to get a better understanding of what we know about the Sagebrush structure and the potential flow rates that we could be seeing during the upcoming EWT on Sagebrush-1.
Everything Iβve shared is based on known data from historic well logs, DSTs, seismics and resource reports (all of which Iβve shared on X previously), which were then fed into the respective industry formulas and supported by analogue data from regional Leadville producers.
In my series of posts Iβve covered some of the following:
- Impact of mud damage on flow rates and what this means
- Power of acid stimulation, especially in the Leadville
- What the DST flow rates & pressure build up data is telling us
- Gauging reservoir characteristics such as size, net pay and porosity
- Examples of supporting analogue well data
- Tables showing potential flow rates and how this translates into revenue for QHE
Tim Rynott, who is the leading geologist in the 4 Corners region (also advising QHE), commented on one of my research posts last year about the potential he sees in the Coyote Wash project. I didnβt really comprehend his interpretations at the time, but now Iβve got my head around the data I can start to see why his 5,000-10,000 MCF/d estimates for Coyote Wash (and by adjacency Sagebrush) really are a possibility β my interpretations are conservative by comparison. I also understand why QHE CEO, Howard McLaughlin, was also hopeful of seeing 1,000+ MCF/d.
For those interested, it makes a compelling read β it really is an exciting time ahead for the company with the EWT having the potential to be an absolute game changer, thatβs even before we consider the oil potential which the company will be targeting later this year. baffling to consider QHE is currently sat at an ~Β£11m market cap β especially considering it has one of the largest resource estimates compared to its helium peers.
This is well overdue a re-rate once final approvals are in and the EWT commences.
