Pulsar’s sixth exploration well underway

After striking the highest gas pressure yet, Pulsar Helium has begun drilling a sixth appraisal well at its project site near Babbitt.

Pulsar Helium’s fifth helium well at the site, Jetstream #5, has been drilled to 3,839 feet, hitting initial gas at about 837 feet, a second gas-bearing zone at approximately 1,481 feet and an additional gas influx at about 2,857 feet where a calculated bottom-hole pressure of approximately 1,292 psi was recorded, the company said.

To date, it’s the highest gas pressure recorded among the five wells drilled at its Topaz project site, Pulsar Helium said.
