UPSIDE DEVELOPMENT ON ADJACENT HELIUM PROSPECTIVE LANDS

  • Historically active oil & gas exploration area with attractive helium levels across Trend.
  • 15 additional multi-zone, multi-commodity prospective drill locations and exploration upside potential across 100%-owned land base.
  • Highly prospective, untested Leduc helium potential on eastern side of land base.
  • 25,000+ acres of new exploration land acquired Summer ‘22, contiguous with existing helium and oil discoveries.

HELIUM PRODUCTION GROWTH VISIBILITY

  • Preliminary engineering on helium processing facility completed, evaluating financing alternatives.
  • On-stream 9-12 months from funding and kick-off.
  • Natural gas gathering infrastructure in place to expedite on-stream timing.
  • 14-23 Horizontal Well, potential helium target, cased for completion and testing.

The Worsley Project is a

100% owned
60,000-acre

land package covering the prolific Leduc Reef Trend in Northern Alberta, Canada.


WORSLEY UNDEVELOPED LANDS

Along the Worsley Trend, oil and gas companies have drilled over 270 wells into the Leduc Formation or deeper. This provides First Helium with an excellent data set to pursue the exploration for helium and hydrocarbons along the trend.


WORSLEY AREA POTENTIAL

NoPath Copy 7

The Leduc Formation consists of a series of patch reefs and associated marine rock units that were deposited along the northern flank of the Peace River Arch. Pools along this trend have produced more than 140 billion cubic feet of natural gas. Approximately 80% of the Leduc wells produced natural gas along with helium, and 20% produced oil.

The Company estimates that the Leduc Formation has produced about 1 billion cubic feet of unrecovered helium in historical natural gas production.

First Helium’s discovery well 15-25, drilled in 1999, contains 1.3% helium and 26% nitrogen. The operator shut the well in and didn’t produce it due to high nitrogen content, and lower heating value natural gas. However, today the value of the helium changes the economics of these wells.

The granitic rocks underlying the area generate helium from natural radioactive decay. The helium has migrated up into the same rocks that trap hydrocarbons. The Peace River Arch and the Worsley Trend in particular, host multiple formations in addition to the Leduc that contain such traps.
