Trillion Energy International Inc. expects to bring a new Black Sea well to long-term production with an initial production rate of about 6 MMcfd. The operator recently completed flow testing at the Guluc-2 natural gas well at SASB gas field, offshore Turkey.
After skidding the rig on Mar. 24, 5.5 m of the lower natural gas sands in the Guluc-2 well were perforated and tested Mar. 28 (OGJ Online, Mar. 29, 2023). Flow rates peaked at 16.35 MMcfd, the highest flow test rate measured to date in Trillion’s drilling program, the company said. Shut-in pressure was measured at 2,000 psi.
Guluc-2 discovered 73 m of gas pay across 14 separate intervals. Current flow test results and production is from only 6 m of gas pay; 67 m remains to be perforated in the future ensuring a long-term production horizon for the well.
The Uranus Rig is now rigging down and is mobilizing to the East Ayazli Tripod to begin drilling the Bayhanli-2 well. The Bayhanli is estimated to hold 2P reserves of 4.2 bcf.
Trillion Energy is 49% owner of the Black Sea SASB natural gas field.
