Trillion Energy International Inc. (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) has completed perforations on the West Akcakoca-1 well at the SASB gas field in the Black Sea. The well now has five perforated zones totaling 9 meters. Initial results show increased well head pressure (WHP) from 1150 psi to 1694 psi. West Akcakoca-1 is currently producing 2.8 MMcf/d using a 28/64 choke. Total combined production from the Akcakoca platform, including Guluc-2 and South Akcakoca-2 wells, is now 7.3 MMcf/d. The company expects further production increases with the installation of new tubing (velocity strings) on additional wells. Trillion plans to use a cost-effective snubbing unit for tubing installation instead of an expensive jack-up rig.

Trillion Energy International Inc. (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) ha completato le perforazioni sul pozzo West Akcakoca-1 nel giacimento di gas SASB nel Mar Nero. Il pozzo presenta ora cinque zone perforate per un totale di 9 metri. I risultati iniziali mostrano un aumento della pressione al fondale del pozzo (WHP) da 1150 psi a 1694 psi. West Akcakoca-1 sta attualmente producendo 2.8 MMcf/d utilizzando un choke da 28/64. La produzione totale combinata dalla piattaforma Akcakoca, inclusi i pozzi Guluc-2 e South Akcakoca-2, è ora di 7.3 MMcf/d. L'azienda prevede ulteriori incrementi di produzione con l'installazione di nuovi tubi (velocità di flusso) su pozzi aggiuntivi. Trillion prevede di utilizzare un'unità di snubbing economica per l'installazione dei tubi invece di una costosa piattaforma jack-up.

The SASB gas field produces a critical domestic supply of natural gas to Türkiye

VANCOUVER, B.C., July 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trillion Energy International Inc. (“Trillion” or the “Company”) (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) (Frankfurt: Z62) is pleased to provide an update on perforations of the West Akcakoca-1 well at the SASB gas field located in the southwestern Black Sea and production progress to date.

The West Akcakoca-1 well has now had the remaining three perforation intervals totaling 4 metres perforated for a total of five zones. Prior delays involving weather conditions and waiting for spare parts to advance the operation have been overcome and the perforation program is now complete.

Results for the perforation of West Akcakoca-1 are as follows:

  • The initial two perforated zones consisting of 5 metres of gas pay increased the well head pressure (“WHP”) from 1150 psi to 1350 psi.
  • Perforation of the subsequent three zones increased WHP from 1350 psi to 1694 psi.  
  • West Akcakoca-1 is now producing 2.8 MMcf/d using a 28/64 choke to ensure its high-pressure will not back out other wells.  

At this time, total combined production from the Akcakoca platform is 7.3 MMcf/d (100% interest), including the Guluc-2, West Akcakoca-1 and South Akcakoca-2 wells. Production increases are expected as new tubing (velocity strings) are installed in the near future on additional wells.

Arthur Halleran CEO of Trillion stated:

“We have now perforated all remaining gas pay in the SASB wells. We are pleased with the results. Installation of production tubing in the past required a jack-up rig which was extremely expensive. However, we intend to run the new production tubing without a rig using a snubbing unit, which is substantially cheaper and will provide a long-term production solution.”
