Production Casing Cemented at Clink #1

 

Helix Exploration, the exploration and development company focused on helium and hydrogen deposits within the 'Montana Helium Fairway', is pleased to provide an operational update on the Clink #1 well at the Ingomar Dome Project.

 

Production casing has been run to 8,130ft and cemented.  The Company will run cased-hole wireline prior to perforating target zones for testing, with samples of any gas recovered sent to an external laboratory for gas composition analysis.

 

The Company will test multiple formations from the bottom of the hole upwards.  If initial results of a perforation are positive the Company will report gas composition to the market and perform an extended well test on the interval before moving on to the next horizon. 

 

David Minchin, Chairman of Helix Exploration, said:

  

"With Clink #1 cased and target reservoirs safely behind pipe, we are delighted to be moving on to the testing phase of the operation.  The initial findings in the Amsden, Charles, and Flathead formations look very encouraging, and I am optimistic about the potential that these formations hold.  We look forward to updating the market with first gas to surface."

 

"I would like to thank and congratulate our CEO Bo Sears and the team for a fantastic effort in successfully completing our maiden well at Clink #1."
