TRILLION ENERGY PROVIDES UPDATED SASB 3D SEISMIC WITH NEW STRATIGRAPHIC GAS PROSPECTS


Vancouver, B.C., Dec. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trillion Energy International Inc. (“Trillion” or the “Company”) (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF) (Frankfurt: Z62) is pleased to announce the completion of its 3D seismic reprocessing for the SASB gas field. The Company is now in the process of interpreting the results and tying the results into the existing drilled wells.

Significant improvements in seismic technology since the initial processing of the 2004 seismic data offer enhanced data imaging for reservoir characterization, faults, and reservoir layers. Additionally, the new PSDM seismic volumes & velocity model has uncovered:

  • Continuous reflectors
  • Much clearer fault cuts
  • Amplitude preservation
  • Improved imaging of subsurface geology and enhanced results of attributes, inversion, and AVO
  • Higher quality data, allowing for clear visibility of both previously and newly discovered gas channels, revealing thin sand bodies
  • Validation of the presence of hydrocarbons using different AVO attributes, such as intercepts, gradients, fluid factors, and gas indicators
  • Detection of sweet spots for new gas prospects.

Arthur Halleran CEO of Trillion stated:

"In the dynamic landscape of energy exploration, our reprocessed seismic data has unveiled a promising chapter for the SASB gas field. The revelation of extensive channel sands, particularly in the D and De-E zones, surpasses our earlier understanding of the field. This transformative breakthrough marks a clearer and more expansive vision of our gas prospects. The excitement is palpable as we witness the emergence of previously unseen gas-charged sand channels throughout, setting the stage for a future defined by enhanced exploration success."
