Desert Mountain Energy Corp. (DME) is pleased to announce that it has set production casing to the top of the Granite Formation in Well #7 (13-1). In addition to the previously announced hydrogen and helium zones, the well encountered additional multiple zones where helium was shown to be present via the mass spectrometer. We had three repeated zones of interest for helium as were previously seen in Wells #4, 5 &6. Correlation and assessments are being performed by our geologic team. Excellent bottom hole pressures were observed in multiple prospective helium & hydrogen zones during drilling and flowed gas during operations. Our onsite equipment clearly displayed a nearly 50/50 ratio of sulfur-free hydrogen and helium in the upper formations.
“Our drilling and geological teams continue to display and improve on their innovative concepts and put them into real-world applications,” said Robert Rohlfing, CEO of DME. “Company drilling procedures which cement all casing strings back to the surface, serve to protect all possible water-bearing zones while allowing for commercial helium and hydrogen production.”
With the completion of Wells #4, 5, 6 and 7, DME now feels that it has identified the outer boundaries of the McCauley Helium Field and owns all necessary leases. The drill rig has been released until the next drill program begins. A completion rig will start work in 3 to 4 weeks, sampling results will be published when that work is accomplished.
