Trillion Energy Begins Production Ramp Up Amidst Historic NatGas Prices Explains CEO Art Halleran
Trillion Energy has successfully commenced production with its multi-well drilling program on the SASB natural gas field in the Black Sea. The Uranus Rig is situated at the Akçakoca platform where it has been drilling the first few wells. A total of three directional wells will be drilled from the Akçakoca platform, plus one recompletion of an existing well will occur.
Trillion just announced successful flow test results for the South Akcakoca-2 natural gas well at SASB gas field, offshore Turkey. The final log evaluation identified a total of 32.9 metres of natural gas pay within 5 sands in the Akcakoca Member. Two of the lower sands (D, C) were perforated over a combined interval of 22.1 metres MD. The well was then flow tested into the SASB production facilities at 7.0 – 8.2 MMcf/d with a 32/64” choke. Reservoir pressure built up to 1690 psi during shut in. The full 22.1 metres perforation interval is currently undergoing a long-term production test into our facilities.
The well was in line with expectations and based on known production characteristics of historical gas wells at SASB. Final production flow rates will be provided when measurement at the onshore gas processing facility is completed. The additional upper interval of 10.8 metres of pay identified through logs as gas bearing sands will be perforated in the future after the production for the initial interval starts to decline.
Arthur Halleran CEO of Trillion stated:
“The results from the flow-test in the lower intervals are in line with our expectations for the South Akcakoca-2 gas well. We are very pleased that the first of our multi-well program has been completed successfully. This is an excellent start to our program.”
After the work at the Akçakoca platform, the Uranus rig will move to the next of the three platforms at SASB to continue the work program. The Company has plans to drill/complete these initial 7 wells followed by another estimated 10 wells prior to further exploration occurring.
The Company’s development program initially includes seven production wells coming online during a time when acute natural gas shortages are menacing Europe and Turkiye. Drilling of additional ten targets are expected to follow. Natural gas prices continue to spike, breaking historical records as the prospect of a cold winter looms with the worst shortages expected yet to come.
Trillion is an oil and gas producing company with multiple assets throughout Turkiye and Bulgaria. The Company is 49% owner of the SASB natural gas field, one of the Black Sea’s first and largest-scale natural gas development projects; a 19.6% (except three wells with 9.8%) interest in the Cendere oil field; and in Bulgaria, the Vranino 1-11 block, a prospective unconventional natural gas property.

“If You’re Not Buying Now, Then When Are You Going to Buy?” says Pro Gold Stock Investor David Erfle
In this interview pro gold stock investor David Erfle provides his commentary on recent gold price action, gold stocks and how he is managing his portfolio. David Erfle is a self-taught mining sector investor. He stumbled upon the mining space in 2003 as he was looking to invest into a growing sector of the market. After researching the gains made from the 2001 bottom in the tiny gold and silver complex, he became fascinated with this niche market. So much so that in 2005 he decided to sell his home and invest the entire proceeds from the sale into junior mining companies. When his account had tripled by September, 2007, he decided to quit his job as the Telecommunications Equipment Buyer at UCLA and make investing in this sector his full-time job. David founded the Junior Miner Junky subscription-based newsletter in April, 2017 and writes a weekly column for precious metals news service Kitco.com, whose website attracts nearly a million visits every day.

2023 Nickel Market Deep-Dive with Experts Alex Laugharne and Martin Turenne (Hosted by Brian Leni)
Listen to a nickel market deep dive with experts Alex Laugharne of the CRU Group and Martin Turenne of FPX Nickel hosted by investor Brian Leni of JuniorStockReview.com.
The nickel price has fluctuated immensely in 2022, driven by geopolitics and a very real influx of new production out of Indonesia. In this interview, we discuss the impacts of Indonesia’s entry into the Class #1 nickel market via HPAL and laterite matte production.
These processes are economic, but come with a higher carbon footprint than the class #1 nickel produced from nickel sulphides – does it matter? While the battery market grabs most of the attention, the nickel market is still very much driven by stainless steel. Alex Laugharne takes us through the fundamentals of the stainless steel market. Further, security of supply and higher metal prices leads manufacturers to look for substitutions. Nickel is no different, both Alex and Martin discuss where battery technology is headed and how nickel may be affected. Finally, Laugharne takes us through CRU’s outlook for nickel in 2023 – bullish or bearish?
0:00 Introduction
1:14 Overview of the current and future role Indonesia is playing in the global nickel market
5:00 What Percentage of the Indonesian production feeds China?
8:21 After many years of missed production targets and budgets, is HPAL technology becoming any more reliable?
13:22 In the future will we see traceability, linked to carbon footprint, become a limiting factor in battery manufacturing?
18:43 Will battery manufacturers be driven into investment in the miners by the market hitting a certain EV adoption percentage?
21:55 Stainless Steel production in 2022 and 2023?
23.40 U.S. Inflation Reduction Act – spending in renewable and EV adoption incentives
27:29 ICE & EV: cost parity or total cost that will dictate the market?
30:52 How big of a threat is substitution or alternative battery chemistry to nickel?
35:15 Outlook for nickel in 2023?

Tier One Silver Identifies Robust Exploration Targets with CEO Peter Dembicki & Chairman Ivan Bebek
In this interview, CEO Peter Dembicki, Chairman Ivan Bebek and SVP Exploration Christian Rios discuss the newly outlined exploration targets and the company’s next steps. Ivan shared that Tier One Silver is receiving a lot of interest from major producers with some even taking second visits to the Curibaya project.
Regarding the copper porphyry targeting at Curibaya, Peter stated: ”The CSAMT geophysical survey is a key component to learning more about potential copper porphyry mineralization, which we saw indications for in our first phase of exploration at Curibaya. This is an exciting development for the company toward unlocking the large opportunity of a potential copper porphyry deposit alongside the epithermal silver system that we’ve already identified, and we look forward to defining these targets for our next drill program.”
Upon receiving the positive rock and channel sample results from the company’s Hurricane project, Peter stated: ”We are very excited about the results we are seeing from our Hurricane project as we advance our exploration and understanding of the notable historical work and identified mineralization. Between Ñañohuayco and San Cipriano, we have an enriched system that warrants further exploration, including geophysics, to truly understand the scope and scale of these targets.”
Tier One Silver is focused on creating significant value for shareholders through the exploration and potential discovery of world-class silver, gold and copper deposits in southwest Peru. Tier One Silver’s main focus currently is the 100% owned Curibaya project, which consists of approximately 11,000 hectares and is located approximately 48 km north-northeast of the provincial capital, Tacna, accessible by road.
