Trillion Energy Begins Spudding Wells Amidst Historic European NatGas Prices says CEO Art Halleran

Trillion Energy has commenced its multi-well drilling program on the SASB natural gas field, upon successful arrival of the Uranus Rig which was mobilized last week after delays due to maintenance and weather conditions in the Black Sea. The Uranus Rig is situated at the Akçakoca platform where the first wells are being drilled. A total of three directional wells will be drilled from the Akçakoca platform, plus one recompletion of an existing well will occur. Trillion estimates the four operations will be completed within 6 months. The Company planned to pair completion of the Akçakoca wells to reduce cost and rig skid times, but each well will produce gas upon completion and sold to market. First gas production is expected early November 2022. After the work at the Akçakoca platform, the Uranus rig will move to the next of the three platforms at SASB to continue the work program. The Company has plans to drill/complete these initial 7 wells followed by another estimated 10 wells prior to further exploration occurring. Arthur Halleran, CEO stated: “The commencement of drilling operations marks a transformative step towards the Company’s bright future, with drilling to lock in much-needed locally sourced gas supplies for the winter months at prices over US$30/mcf. These long reach advanced engineering production wells will allow gas production to immediately be sold under our existing gas contract where we get paid monthly and can then use the revenues to continue to drill new wells.” The Company’s development program initially includes seven production wells coming online during a time when acute natural gas shortages are menacing Europe and Turkiye. Drilling of additional 10 targets are expected to follow. Natural gas prices continue to spike, breaking historical records as the prospect of a cold winter looms with the worst shortages expected yet to come. Trillion is an oil and gas producing company with multiple assets throughout Turkiye and Bulgaria. The Company is 49% owner of the SASB natural gas field, one of the Black Sea’s first and largest-scale natural gas development projects; a 19.6% (except three wells with 9.8%) interest in the Cendere oil field; and in Bulgaria, the Vranino 1-11 block, a prospective unconventional natural gas property. 0:00 Introduction 1:58 Trillion begins drilling first natural gas well 3:00 Possible acceleration of program B 5:07 Any way to increase production while nat gas prices elevated? 5:50 Uranus rig locked up already for program B 6:13 Projected cashflow at $31/mcf 7:38 Trillion’s probably of success much higher than hard rock mining 9:10 Research Capital Corp target price of C$1.35 10:49 Art foresees share price target higher than Research Capital Corp 11:44 Trillion’s exploration potential 13:53 Trillion’s competitive advantage re: exploration success 14:47 Trillion’s delay produced the perfect financial setup: $31/mcf vs. $8/mcf 16:15 European macro situation & energy crisis bullish for nat gas 18:50 Art explains why there is no Turkish nationalization or currency risk https://trillionenergy.com/ CSE: TCF - OTCQB: TRLEF - Frankfurt, Z62, Forum Company presentation: https://www.miningstockeducation.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Trillion-Energy-Intl-Corporate-Presentation-Sept-2022-F.pdf Recent Press Release: https://ceo.ca/@globenewswire/trillion-energys-sasb-natural-gas-drilling-program Analyst Report: https://mcusercontent.com/5e269838a16742a97c90596c2/files/5ff37a7a-e306-edc6-3a9d-7edc27742f48/TCF_09_13_22.pdf Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Trillion Energy is an MSE sponsor.
