Vancouver, B.C. , Nov. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trillion Energy International Inc. (“Trillion” or the “Company”) (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) (Frankfurt: Z62) is pleased to provide an update on the velocity string installation program at the SASB gas field.

On October 27^th the snubbing unit was positioned over the Akcakoca-3 well where 2 3/8” production tubing (“velocity string” or “VS”) was ran into the well through the existing 4 ½ tubing. The operation was completed on October 29^th. The well continued to flow throughout the operation.

Following the VS installation, Akcakoca-3 production increased from approximately 2.0 MMcf/d (average production for the 27 days prior to installation) to 2.6 MMcf/d (average production first 4 days post VS). We continue to monitor production from the well at this time.

On October 30^th, 2024 a 2 3/8^th velocity string was ran into the West Akcakoca-1 well using the snubbing unit. The operation was completed by November 1^st, where the velocity string reached a total measured depth (MD) of 3,496 meters. The West Akcakoca-1 well was not producing prior to the operation and gas production is expected to resume following nitrogen stimulation being applied.

Currently, VS is being run into the Guluc-2 well. The velocity strings are being installed with the objective of reducing water loading issues in the SASB gas wells.
