Amplitude Energy Limited（ASX：AEL，简称“Amplitude Energy”或“本公司”）欣然宣布，东海岸供应项目（East Coast Supply Project，简称“东海岸供应项目”）首口井已于1月25日由Transocean Equinox钻井平台开钻Elanora-1井。Elanora

-1是一口勘探井，位于VIC/L24许可证区域内，在联邦水域内，距离现有Casino、Henry、Netherby（CHN）输油管道的连接点西南约6公里。

Elanora-1项目的目标是从Waarre A储层靶区获取1610亿立方英尺（Bcf）的平均总远景资源量（更多详情请参阅下表和附录中的图表）。Amplitude Energy持有包含Elanora勘探区的VIC/L24区块50%的权益，剩余50%的权益由合资伙伴OG Energy持有。

Elanora勘探区得益于Waarre A储层的高振幅，这使得地质勘探成功概率达到67%²。

后续计划
随着钻探工作推进至关键里程碑，我们将提供进一步的更新信息。根据作业条件，Elanora-1井预计钻探约20-30天，计划最大总深度约为2000米（海底真实垂直深度，TVDSS），并可能额外进行约4-7天的评估。Elanora

-1井钻探完成后，该井将被封堵，并钻探通往Isabella勘探区的侧钻井，预计该侧钻井将耗时约14-18天。Isabella勘探区紧邻Elanora，同样位于VIC/L24许可证范围内。

如果侧钻成功，将立即进行测井评估，以确定储层的天然气成分和质量。侧钻计划在成功后进行套管作业并安装海底采油树，同时进行流量测试，然后暂停作业，为后续开发做好准备，作为东海岸天然气勘探项目（ECSP）的一部分。

董事总经理兼首席执行官简·诺曼表示：“我们很高兴能以埃拉诺拉-1井启动ECSP的钻井阶段。埃拉诺拉是我们ECSP勘探项目中最大的项目，地质勘探成功的可能性很高，在埃拉诺拉的发现将为我们未来接入现有奥特威盆地基础设施提供强大的资源基础。其他公司近期在奥特威盆地近海的勘探成功，进一步增强了我们对该盆地能够满足澳大利亚东海岸国内天然气市场未来能源需求的看法。”

Amplitude Energy Limited (AEL: ASX, 锟紸mplitude Energy锟� or 锟絫he Company锟�) is pleased to announce that drilling has now commenced on the first East Coast Supply Project (锟紼CSP锟�) well, with the Transocean Equinox rig spudding Elanora-1 on 25 January.

Elanora-1 is an exploration well located in permit VIC/L24 within Commonwealth waters, approximately 6km south-west from a tie-in point in the existing Casino, Henry, Netherby (CHN) pipeline.

Elanora-1 is targeting 161 Bcf in gross mean prospective resource from a Waarre A reservoir target (refer to table below and diagrams in appendix for further details) 1. Amplitude Energy holds a 50% interest in VIC/L24 which contains the Elanora prospect, with the remaining 50% held by joint venture parter O.G. Energy.

The Elanora prospect is supported by high Waarre A reservoir amplitudes, which contribute to a probability of geological success of 67%2.

Forward plan
Further updates will be provided as drilling progresses through key milestones. Subject to operational conditions Elanora-1 is expected to take approximately 20-30 days to drill to a planned maximum total depth of up to around 2,000m True Vertical Depth Sub-Sea (TVDSS), with potential for approximately 4-7 further days of evaluation.

Following completion of the Elanora-1 program, the well will be plugged and a sidetrack into the Isabella prospect will be drilled, which is expected to take approximately 14-18 further days. Isabella lies immediately adjacent to Elanora, also in the VIC/L24 permit.

In the event of success in the sidetrack, evaluation of the discovery through logging will be conducted immediately to assess the gas composition and quality of the reservoir. The sidetrack is planned to be cased and completed with a sub-sea tree upon success, incorporating a flow test, and then suspended ready for development as part of the ECSP.

Managing Director and CEO Jane Norman commented that 锟絎e锟絩e excited to commence the drilling phase of the ECSP with Elanora-1. Elanora is the largest of our ECSP prospects, with a high chance of geological success2, and a discovery at Elanora would provide us with a strong resource base for future tie-backs into our existing Otway Basin infrastructure. Recent exploration success from other parties in the Offshore Otway Basin reinforce our views on the ability of the basin to help supply the future energy needs of Australia锟絪 East Coast domestic gas market.锟�
