Zephyr 的运营团队继续推进即将“获胜”且资金充足的 State 36-2 井重新钻探规划。该公司保留全面的井控保险，并预计将基本上收回与重钻相关的所有成本。

2023年底，为了确保 State 36-2R 井获得最佳钻井结果，Zephyr 团队开始了详细的内部井规划流程（由多个高压/高温专业服务提供商补充），并继续与公司的井进行广泛互动控制保险提供商。该过程现已结束，并产生了更新的钻探计划，该计划已提交给州和联邦监管机构批准。

最近完成的运营工作包括：

• 完成国家3​​6-2R井地质方案；
• 完成良好的设计基础，并完成所有第三方审查；
• 完成现场用水计划；
• 主要服务的投标流程，包括钻机合同，正在进行中，投标和选择正在进行中；
• 已向犹他州和美国土地管理局（BLM）提交了一份各种通知，以修改井场现有的钻探许可证；和
• 天然气和天然气液体（NGL）加工以及销售和营销合同（包括天然气运输）处于先进状态。

对现有许可证的各种通知预计将导致犹他州和土地管理局加快审批流程，一旦获得批准，公司计划迅速采取行动执行钻机合同并最终确定钻井时间。

尽管取决于天气条件和钻机可用性，但管理层打算在收到许可证后尽快开始钻探。

Zephyr 首席执行官科林·哈灵顿 (Colin Harrington) 评论道：“我们的团队将继续对 State 36-2R 井进行密集而稳健的规划流程，一旦钻探计划的各种修改获得批准，我们将寻求加快现场作业，以开始钻探作业。尽快。”

“该团队在推进重大合同和基础设施解决方案方面做得非常出色，我们期待在未来几周和几个月内提供持续的新闻流。”

Zephyr's operations team continues to progress planning for the forthcoming ‘twinned’ and fully-funded redrill of the State 36-2 well. The Company retains full well control insurance and expects to recover substantially all costs associated with the redrill.

In late 2023, to ensure an optimal drilling outcome for the State 36-2R well, Zephyr's team commenced detailed internal well-planning processes (supplemented by multiple high-pressure/high temperature specialist service providers) and continued its extensive interaction with the Company's well control insurance providers. This process has now concluded and resulted in an updated drilling plan which has been submitted to state and federal regulators for approval.

Recently competed operational work has included:

• Completion of the State 36-2R well geologic programme;
• Completion of the well basis of design, and completion of all third-party reviews thereon;
• Completion of the site water plan;
• Bid processes for major services, including the rig contract, which are ongoing with bids in hand and selection underway;
• A sundry notice has been submitted to the State of Utah and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (the BLM) to amend the existing drilling permit at the well site; and
• Gas and natural gas liquids (NGL) processing and sales and marketing contracts (including gas transportation) are at an advanced state.

The sundry notice to the existing permit is expected to result in an expedited approval process from the State of Utah and the BLM and once approved, the Company plans to move rapidly to execute a rig contract and finalise timing of the drilling.

Although dependent on weather conditions and rig availability, it is management's intention to commence drilling as soon as possible once permits are received.

Colin Harrington, Zephyr's CEO, commented: "Our team continues its intensive and robust planning process for the State 36-2R well and once the sundry amendment to the drilling programme is approved, we will seek to expedite operations at site to commence drilling operations as soon as possible."

"The team has done excellent work in progressing major contracts and infrastructure solutions, and we look forward to providing continued news flow over the coming weeks and months."
