PetroSun Announced Today Its Q1 Exploration And Development Plans For The Holbrook Basin (AZ)

PetroSun, Inc announced today its Q1 2019 exploration and development plans for the Holbrook Basin (AZ). AEP Drilling, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arizona Energy Partners and affiliate of PetroSun, will move its drilling rig onto the AEP 16-1 Concho Dome (Permit 1215) to deepen the well to 4,000 feet or basement, whichever is deeper. After testing and completion operations are conducted on the 16-1, AEP Drilling will move the rig to the AEP 2-1MS (Permit 1216) to test the Manuel Seep structure. Both wells and geological structures have the potential to produce commercial quantities of helium, crude oil and/or natural gas. If successful, Arizona Energy Partners will drill additional development wells and construct the Oso Draw Helium Plant for the extraction and processing of up to 240 million standard cubic feet of liquid helium per year. AEP will supply liquid helium produced by this facility to Praxair, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Linde plc, under a long-term agreement. “Our supply agreement with AEP is yet another example of Praxair’s commitment to support the development of helium resources globally in order to meet our customers growing demand”, said Praxair’s Amer Akhras, General Manager, Global Helium.
