Blackbird Energy has made two condensate and gas discoveries at Elmworth, Alberta, Canada.
The company completed and tested the 06-26-70-07-W6 (06-26) and 05-26-70-07W6 (05-26) wells on its 69 section land block at Elmworth.
Blackbird drilled the 06-26 well, which targeted the Middle Montney interval, to a total measured depth of 4,734m, including a horizontal lateral of 2,052m.
It flowed on cleanup, recovering about 21.7% of its load fluid before being shut-in.
The 05-26 well, which targeted the Upper Montney interval, was drilled to a total measured depth of 4,621m including a horizontal lateral of 1,951m.
It flowed on cleanup, recovering about 32.3% of its load fluid. Additional testing is planned after spring break-up to help assess the well’s potential.

By GlobalDataBlackbird Energy chairman, CEO and president Garth Braun said: "We are optimistic that further testing following break-up will allow for a more fulsome clean-up of the load fluid, and will ultimately demonstrate an increased presence of both condensate and liquids-rich gas, particularly given the over-pressured nature of the Middle and Upper Montney reservoirs discovered at our Elmworth project.
"Based on these results, it is our plan to continue forward with the aggressive delineation and development of our Elmworth project, beginning with the design and construction of a battery, which we anticipate will allow for tie-in by the first quarter of 2016."
