Elixir Energy (ASX:EXR)

Daydream-2 Operations Concluded

Elixir Energy Limited (“Elixir” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an operational update on the Daydream-2 well in its 100% owned Project Grandis in Queensland’s Taroom Trough.


HIGHLIGHTS

  • Five out of six stimulated zones flowed gas
  • Additional deep coal flow to increase contingent resources
  • Stabilised flow rate less than previously measured but remediable in future wells
  • Well to be retained as a future gas producer
  • All licence commitments now met for ATP 2044 and retention lease to be sought

Elixir has now concluded its testing program of the Daydream-2 well and the well is being retained through a process of suspension as a future gas producer. The Coil Tubing Unit (CTU) has been released back to Elixir’s neighboring Operator to continue with its ongoing multi-well program.

All licence commitments have now been met for ATP 2044 and Elixir will now proceed with a process of applying for the licence to be deemed a retention lease (in Queensland this is called a Potential Commercial Area – PCA – which has a maximum term of 15 years).

The well delivered gas flow rates from five out of the six stimulated zones – including for the first time in two separate deep coal zones.

Achieving flows from these deep coals should allow the commencement of the conversion to contingent resources of the current prospective resources booked in the coals in ATP 2044 (see ASX announcement of 21 February 2024). Elixir will work with its independent auditors over this initial contingent resource booking in the coming months.

During the final phase of testing, gas was flowed at various rates and various choke sizes. A maximum flow rate of 2.6 MMSCFD was recorded and the stabilized rate was 1.0 MMCFPD prior to shut-in.

This reduction in stabilised rate has been attributed to condensate or water banking immediately around the wellbore.

This was likely caused by the multiple open and closures of the well during recent operations, or by adverse reactions to fluids introduced into the wellbore. Such issues are common in early stage tight gas plays globally and can be remedied by operational changes to fluid use and well management. Due to the appraisal nature of this well, the extensive multi-phase testing and evaluation undertaken (including for R&D purposes) was required as part of the planning for a future development.
