Trillion Energy International Inc. has spudded the Bayhanli-2 well at SASB gas field, Black Sea, Turkey.

Bayhanli-2, the fifth gas well in a multi-well drilling program at the field, targets a previously discovered gas pool, which was not previously produced, through a long reach directional well bore to enable production, the company said in a release Apr. 11.

The Bayhanli gas pool is a significant target and may likely require additional wells in the future to fully produce the economic reserves, the company said.

Upon completion, the well is expected to reach a total measured depth of 3,400 m and true vertical depth of about 1,200 m, extending horizontally over 2 km from the East Ayazli offshore tripod.

The well was spudded on Apr. 5th, 2023, and is currently drilled to a depth of 496 m. Drilling, casing, perforation, and testing is expected to take about 45 days.
