Helium One Global 是坦桑尼亚的主要氦气勘探公司，拥有美国科罗拉多州 Galactica-Pegasus 氦气开发项目 (“Galactica 项目”) 50% 的工作权益，该公司在 Blue Star Helium (ASX: BNL) (“Blue Star”) 今天就 Galactica 项目发布公告后提供了最新进展。

摘要
? Jackson-31 中间井段已成功钻至套管点
? 目前正在进行套管和固井
? 下一步将是进行固井粘结测井 (“CBL”)，然后钻入目标 Lyons 砂岩层氦气储层，直至钻井总深度 (“TD”)

该公司很高兴地宣布，Jackson-31 SENW 3054 开发井的中间井段已成功钻至 1,080 英尺，目前正在下套管。

下套管后，将进行 CBL 运行以确认粘结良好，然后进一步钻入目标 Lyons 砂岩层，直至上 Lyons 砂岩层底部的计划 TD（生产井段）。
在 TD，将对井进行电缆记录，然后安装井口以提供流量和压力读数。
预计在 Jackson-31 成功测试后，该井将完工并准备与生产设施连接。

Galactica-Pegasus 开发
Galactica 项目是更广泛的 Galactica-Pegasus 开发项目的一部分，由 Blue Star 于 2022 年发现。这个大型项目提供了多种潜在的产品流。 Galactica-Pegasus 的四个现有氦气发现（JXSN-1 至 JXSN-4）已提供 125 至 412 千立方英尺/天（“Mcfd”）至 412 Mcfd 的气体流量，氦气浓度在 2.0% 至 6.1% 之间。Blue

Star 进一步评估了 State-16 井的发现，该井于 2024 年 6 月钻探。独立工程顾问建议，State-16 能够生产高达 441 Mcfd，为优化生产而限制的更稳定的速率预计在 250 Mcfd 和 350 Mcfd 之间。该井测试了 1.9% 的氦气，测井在 Lyons 砂岩地层中发现了 96 英尺以上的气柱。

第三方拥有的 Red Rocks 氦气项目毗邻 Blue Star 的 Galactica 项目（见下图）。Red Rocks 的开发进一步支持了 Galactica 项目的商业化。Blue

Star 一直在推进 Galactica 的工程工作，包括二氧化碳去除、净化和销售，然后再通过 IACX 氦气回收装置进行氦气处理。工程和市场分析继续优化开发配置、生产预测和成本估算。

Helium One Global, the primary helium explorer in Tanzania with a 50% working interest in the Galactica-Pegasus helium development project in Colorado, USA ("the Galactica Project"), provides an update following the Blue Star Helium (ASX: BNL) ("Blue Star") announcement issued today regarding the Galactica Project.

Summary
? Jackson-31 intermediate hole section successfully drilled to casing point
? Casing and cementing currently in progress
? Next steps will be to cement bond log ("CBL") then drill out into the targeted Lyons Sandstone Formation helium reservoir to drilling total depth ("TD")

The Company is pleased to announce that the intermediate hole section of the Jackson-31 SENW 3054 development well has been successfully drilled to 1,080 feet, and casing is now being run.

After running casing, a CBL run will be undertaken to confirm good bonding, followed by further drilling into the target Lyons Sandstone Formation to planned TD at the base of the Upper Lyons Sandstone Formation (production hole section).
At TD, the well will be wireline logged after which a well head will be fitted to provide flow and pressure readings.
It is anticipated that, upon successful testing at Jackson-31, the well will be completed and ready to be tied-in to production facilities.

Galactica-Pegasus Development
The Galactica project forms part of the broader Galactica-Pegasus development, discovered by Blue Star in 2022. This large-scale project offers multiple potential product streams. Four existing helium discoveries at Galactica-Pegasus (JXSN-1 to JXSN-4) have delivered gas flows of 125 to 412 thousand cubic feet per day ("Mcfd") to 412 Mcfd with high helium concentrations of between 2.0% and 6.1%

Blue Star further appraised the discovery with the State-16 well which was drilled in June 2024. Independent engineering consultants advised that State-16 is capable of producing up to 441 Mcfd with more stabilised rates constrained for production optimisation, projected to be between 250 Mcfd and 350 Mcfd. The well tested 1.9% helium and logs identified 96+ feet of gas column in the Lyons Sandstone Formation.

The third-party owned Red Rocks helium project adjoins Blue Star's Galactica Project (see map below). Development of Red Rocks further supports the commercialisation of the Galactica Project.

Blue Star has been advancing engineering work on Galactica related to CO2 removal, purification and sale prior to helium processing via the IACX helium recovery unit. Engineering and market analysis continues to optimize development configurations, production forecasts, and cost estimates.
