Pulsar Helium finds three gas zones at Jetstream No. 6

PLSR · Price

Executive Summary

  • Pulsar Helium Inc. reports that its Jetstream No. 6 appraisal well at the Topaz Helium Project in Minnesota has encountered three additional high-pressure gas zones, including two intervals with estimated bottom-hole pressures exceeding 1,000 psi.
  • The well is currently drilling toward a total depth (TD) of approximately 3,000 feet using continuous HQ core drilling to maximize geological sample recovery.
  • Upon reaching TD, the drill rig will mobilize to the Jetstream No. 7 location, situated approximately 2.2 miles northwest of the Jetstream No. 1 discovery well, to continue the appraisal program.

Key Details

  • Well Location: Jetstream No. 6 appraisal well, Topaz Helium Project, Minnesota, USA.
  • Drilling Method: Continuous HQ core drilling (3.8 inches) to maximize geological sample recovery.
  • Current Status: Drilling continues toward a planned total depth (TD) of approximately 3,000 feet.
  • Identified Pressurized Gas Zones:
    • 1,287 feet: Estimated bottom-hole pressure of 576 psi (previously reported Feb. 9, 2026).
    • 2,120 feet: Estimated bottom-hole pressure of 981 psi.
    • 2,187 feet: Estimated bottom-hole pressure of 1,012 psi.
    • 2,377 feet: Estimated bottom-hole pressure of 1,100 psi.
  • Surface Observations: Gas was observed bubbling through drilling fluids at the surface, indicating the presence of pressurized gas in the intersected intervals.
  • Data Caveat: Pressure readings were obtained during drilling operations and represent preliminary measurements; they do not constitute stabilized reservoir pressures or sustained flowtest results.
  • Future Operations: The drill rig will mobilize to Jetstream No. 7 upon reaching TD at Jetstream No. 6.
  • Jetstream No. 7 Details: Located approximately 2.2 miles northwest of the Jetstream No. 1 discovery well; planned TD is approximately 3,000 feet.
  • Project Context: Six appraisal wells have been drilled at Topaz to date (with the sixth still in progress), all intersecting pressurized gas, representing a 100% success rate. The project focuses on helium, helium-3, and carbon dioxide.
