Blue start commences well testing. See ASX10 Feb 2025 23:02
In Brief...
Blue Star Helium Limited (ASX:BNL, OTC:BSNLF) is pleased to announce the commencement of well testing activities at its newly optioned helium assets in the Great Plains field in Lincoln and Cheyene Counties, Colorado.
These tests will be crucial in confirming our assessment of these strategically located assets, which include existing wellbores with historic helium shows of 1.36% to 2.02% and raw gas flow rates of 5,000 to 10,000 Mcfd.
The initial wells to be tested are Ma State 16 and Bubba State 3. This will involve downhole operations to prepare the V11 or Keyes formations for testing. The tests will measure helium concentrations, flow rates and pressures in order to establish gas well type curves, estimate expected ultimate recoveries (EUR) for the assessment of commerciality and guide option exercise and development decisions. Positive test results could be a major catalyst for Blue Star, paving the way for a rapid and capexlite development with strong operational synergies with our existing projects.
