Bayhanli-2 gas well spudded at East Ayazli targeting significant Proved Reserves
Vancouver, B.C., April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Trillion Energy International Inc. (“Trillion” or the “Company”) (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) (Frankfurt: Z62) is pleased to announce the spudding of the Bayhanli-2 well at the SASB Gas field, Black Sea Turkiye.
Bayhanli-2 is the fifth gas well in our multi-well drilling program at the SASB gas field development. The well targets a previously discovered gas pool, which was never previously produced, through a long reach directional well bore to enable production. The Bayhanli gas pool is a significant target and may likely require additional wells in the future to fully produce the economic reserves.
Upon completion, the Bayhanli-2 well is expected to reach a total measured depth of 3,400 metres and true vertical depth of about 1,200 metres, extending horizontally over 2 kilometers from the East Ayazli offshore tripod. The well was spud on April 5th, 2023 and is currently drilled to a depth of 496 metres. We anticipate that drilling, casing, perforation and testing will take a total of about 45 days.
