Trillion Energy natural gas well enters production offshore Turkey

(WO) — Trillion Energy International Inc. announced flow test results for the Bayhanli-2 natural gas well at the SASB gas field, offshore Turkey.

Eight intervals of gas pay with a true thickness of about 21 meters were perforated and tested in Bayhanli-2 and now are producing gas to the sales pipeline. The eight intervals within the E, D, C, A and AA gas sand reservoirs produced at a combined rate of 11.9 MMcfd for the final flow test. The well is expected to be produced to pipeline with initial flow rates from between 8 and 9 MMcfd.

The Uranus rig will now be moved to the Akkaya tripod to start drilling Alapli-2, the next well. Alapli-2 is a twin of a previously discovered gas pool but that has never been put into production.

Arthur Halleran, CEO of Trillion, stated, “Bayhanli-2 is our fifth well operation successfully drilled and producing gas at SASB. With multiple zones perforated, we expect a good producer which will also help us evaluate how to produce gas at maximum rates.”
