PLSR · Price
Executive Summary
- Pulsar Helium successfully completed drilling the Jetstream #3 appraisal well at its Topaz Project in Minnesota, reaching a total depth of 3,507 ft (1,069 m).
- The well encountered strong natural pressure (~960 psi bottom‑hole), markedly higher than earlier wells (Jetstream #1: 185 psi; Jetstream #2: 205 psi), indicating a robust helium‑bearing reservoir.
- Drilling of the next appraisal well, Jetstream #4, commenced on November 9, 2025, and the company plans open‑hole wireline logging, optical televiewer imaging, and subsequent flow‑testing of Jetstream #3 to assess deliverability ahead of a resource update and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) slated for H1 2026.
Key Details
- Well Completion: Jetstream #3 reached TD = 3,507 ft (1,069 m) on 7 Nov 2025; fully penetrated the interpreted helium‑bearing interval.
- Pressure Data: Calculated bottom‑hole pressure ≈ 960 psi; compares to 185 psi (Jetstream #1, 2024) and 205 psi (Jetstream #2, 2024).
- Next Well: Jetstream #4 spudded on 9 Nov 2025; target TD ≈ 3,000 ft (914 m).
- Planned Evaluation for Jetstream #3:
- Open‑hole wireline logs to gather geological & petrophysical data.
- Optical televiewer to image borehole wall geology.
- Proposed controlled flow‑test and pressure build‑up program to measure well deliverability.
- Drilling Campaign Scope: Up to 10 appraisal wells intended to delineate geometry, extent, and productivity of the Topaz helium reservoir.
- Future Milestones:
- Update Topaz resource estimate.
- Conduct Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) in H1 2026.
- Strategic Goal: Position Topaz as a new primary helium supply source for the North American market.
