Elixir Energy Limited (“Elixir” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the Daydream-2 program in its 100%-owned Grandis Project in Queensland’s Taroom Trough.
HIGHLIGHTS
- On site operations at Daydream-2 have recommenced
- High pressure noted at wellhead
The on-site operations for the Daydream-2 stimulation and testing program have now recommenced with Elixir’s contracting staff returning to the well-site to prepare for the arrival of the coil tubing unit (CTU). This unit was recently imported from New Zealand to undertake work for the Company and its neighbouring Operator.
The CTU operated by Condor Energy (on a previous well location)
As part of these preparations, pressure at the Daydream-2 wellhead was recently measured at 3,410 psi - despite having a full column of saline water in the hole. Although the pressure is safely contained behind two separate barriers and presents no issues with respect to the planned work program, the high pressure was unexpected. The likely cause of this anomalously high wellhead pressure could be:
1. The temporary plug that separates the high pressure Lorelle sandstone from the remainder of the wellbore has been leaking; and/or,
2. Perforations that were placed above the Lorelle sandstone (in what were assessed to be low quality siltstones during the recent removal of a blockage in the well) - may now be contributing high pressure gas.
The upcoming program will now attempt to clarify this issue as Elixir moves to flow test the Lorelle sandstone and stimulate other zones higher in the hole.
Elixir’s Managing Director, Mr Neil Young, said: “The unexpected high pressure at the Daydream-2 wellhead is yet another example of the great potential of the Taroom Trough to contribute gas from an enormously thick gross section containing multiple sedimentary forms. The next month or so will be an exciting time for Elixir as we continue to learn more and more from what has been an incredibly valuable appraisal well to date.”

Elixir Energy
Overview
Elixir Energy (ASX:EXR) is a gas exploration and development company currently focused on its portfolio of natural gas assets in Queensland, Australia and Mongolia. As an early mover in both areas, Elixir Energy has been the first company ever to free-flow gas from the deep Taroom Trough in Queensland and flow gas of any description in Mongolia.
Elixir Energy’s Grandis Gas project in Queensland is located in the Taroom Trough in the Southern Bowen Basin, where Australia’s premier physical and commercial gas hub – Wallumbilla – is immediately adjacent. Market factors are now driving new rounds of drilling in the Taroom Trough contributing to its reputation as an emerging energy super basin with major electricity as well as gas infrastructure.
A successful free-flowing test was conducted on the Lorelle Sandstone and has indicated it could produce a commercial flow rate of gas, with the breakeven commercial initial flow rate estimated at 2.5 million cubic feet per day.
Gas flow from Stage 1 Lorelle Sandstone post stimulation
Elixir Energy’s Nomgon coal-bed methane (CBM) project is located in Mongolia.
The Nomgon CBM project is in the South Gobi region of Mongolia and on the Chinese/Mongolian border. The ideal location of the asset provides access to excellent infrastructure, including planned pipelines and local mines as customers. The Nomgon project includes a CBM pilot production plant, which flowed gas in its early stages and is now moving to progressively de-water with a view to building up a sustained gas flow rate.
The company is led by a highly experienced team with direct histories in Queensland, Australia and Mongolia and expertise in the natural resources industry, community engagement and working with government stakeholders.
Company Highlights
- Elixir Energy (ASX:EXR) is an exploration and development company with energy assets in Australia and Mongolia, targeting natural gas and renewable energy/hydrogen.
- The company’s Grandis Gas project in Queensland is located in an established gas and oil region, with exceptional access to existing infrastructure and high gas prices.
- The region is currently hosting multi-operator activity, including by Shell.
- Elixir has discovered a deep free-flowing gas zone in Grandis – the first of its kind.
- The company was also the first to flow natural gas in Mongolia, pioneering production in the country.
- A management team with a wide range of expertise in the natural resources sector provides leadership for maximising the value of Elixir Energy’s assets.
Key Projects
Grandis Gas Project
The company’s asset in Queensland, Australia, covers approximately 1,000 square kilometers in an established oil and gas province. The project is well-suited for cost-effective transportation to domestic and international gas markets.
Project Highlights:
- Strong Local Infrastructure: The region's long history of oil and gas production has resulted in a robust infrastructure, including gas transportation and electricity transmission access – and community support for the industry.
- Adjacent to Current and Proposed Pipelines: The asset is located close to existing – and proposed gas pipelines to assist in efficient and low-cost transportation as production commences.
- Impressive Initial Flow Test Results: After a successful suite of DFITs, free-flowing test on the Lorelle Sandstone has been successfully stimulated. Elixir’s technical and economic modeling indicates the Lorelle Sandstone alone could produce a commercial flow rate of gas, with the breakeven commercial initial flow rate estimated at 2.5 million cubic feet per day.
Daydream-2 Lorelle Sandstone Flow Testing*
Nomgon CBM Project
Elixir Energy’s 100-percent-owned coal-bed methane (CBM) project is ideally located in the South Gobi region of Mongolia. This location gives the asset access to robust local infrastructure and close access to Chinese energy markets – the world’s largest.
Project Highlights:
- CBM Pilot Project In Production: The pilot plant passed a key production milestone of 200,000 square cubic feet per day in its early stages. Water production has progressed since these early flows with a view to de-pressuring the CBM reservoir, leading to sustained gas flows.
- District-scale Asset: The Nomgon project covers a significant 30,000 square kilometers in Mongolia. Initial exploration campaigns have been promising and indicate the potential for the asset to become a significant producer of regional energy markets.

June 2024 Quarterly Activities Report
Highlights
- Tumbes basin source rocks maturity maps demonstrate the basin’s potential for oil generation over the majority of the TEA
- Raya and Bonito Prospects shown to be favourably located with respect to mature source rocks within the peak oil generating zone
- Depositional models for the Zorritos and Mancora Formations provides significant insight on the Tumbes Basin’s target source rocks
- Additional deeper stacked targets identified in the proven oil-bearing Zorritos Formation represents significant upside for the Bonito Prospect
- TOTAL Energies enters the Tumbes basin
Figure 1 – TEA Prospects and 3D Seismic areas selected for reprocessing
Technical Evaluation Agreement (TEA) LXXXVI - Offshore Oil and Gas Block (CND 80% Working Interest)
During the reporting quarter, Condor and US-based joint venture partner Jaguar Exploration Limited (Jaguar), continued the evaluation of the 4,858km2 Technical Evaluation Agreement (TEA or block) offshore Peru in conjunction with the Company’s technical advisors Havoc Services Pty Ltd (Havoc).
Condor’s block comprises over 3,800km2 of existing 3D seismic data from which an aggregate of 1,000km2 have been selected to undergo pre-stack depth migration (PSDM) reprocessing and interpretation across three discrete highly prospective areas (Figure 1). The three areas selected for reprocessing were chosen following the identification of the Raya and Bonito prospects and the Piedra Redonda gas field.
The Raya and Bonito prospects are large features in the Zorritos Formation, which present structural closure at multiple levels and the potential for stacked pay with multiple Zorritos reservoir-seal pairs present. The Piedra Redonda gas field contains a gross ‘Best Estimate’ Contingent Resources of 404 billion cubic feet (Bcf) plus ‘Best Estimate’ Prospective Resources# of 2.2 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of gas contained within the Company’s TEA.
#Cautionary Statement: The estimated quantities of gas that may potentially be recovered by the application of a future development project(s) relate to undiscovered accumulations. These estimates have both a risk of discovery and a risk of development. Further exploration appraisal and evaluation is required to determine the existence of a significant quantity of potentially recoverable hydrocarbons.
Work completed during the quarter included the completion of a fast-track regional interpretation of the whole 3,800km2 of 3D legacy seismic data, the identification of different petroleum systems based on maturation mapping of the main source rocks in the basin and the identification of additional deeper targets at the Bonio prospect. Also, subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company reported the completion of a field geology trip on the onshore section of the Tumbes basin.
