Latest Pitse Pilot News

Botala Energy has completed its A$1.35 million placement and is seeking up to a further A$1.5 million from existing shareholders at A$0.045 a share. The funds are earmarked for flow testing and production activities at the Pitse Pilot, exploration drilling and working capital.

Botala Energy has achieved continuous gas flow from stimulated well 3.5B at its Serowe coal bed methane project in Botswana. The technical milestone comes with a significant funding constraint: cash stood at A$286,000 at quarter end, before a subsequent A$1.35 million placement and planned share purchase plan.

Botala Energy has secured A$1.35 million in a targeted placement to fund flow testing at its Serowe coal bed methane project, reserves certification and the final Phase 2 feasibility study. The raise also provides near-term funding while a proposed A$3.6 million investment from Botswana’s MDCB remains subject to commercial agreements.

Botala Energy’s Serowe CBM project has reached its most important testing phase after well 3.5B delivered strong early water production and casing pressure. The operational progress is material, but the company still faces a funding hurdle and has not yet demonstrated sustained commercial gas flow.

Botala Energy has secured three wholly owned Botswana prospecting licences covering 1,812km², taking its Serowe CBM footprint beyond 6,000km². The expansion comes as the company prepares to flow-test Serowe-3.5B, while the new acreage remains an interpreted exploration opportunity rather than a booked resource.

Botala Energy reports promising early gas observations at its Serowe-3.5B well in Botswana, signaling reservoir responsiveness as the well approaches a critical dewatering stage in its Pitse Pilot.

Botala Energy’s Pitse Pilot well 3.5B in Botswana is producing 200 barrels of water per day with measurable casing pressure despite limited reservoir drawdown, signalling effective stimulation and promising progress toward commercial coal bed methane production.

Pure One Corporation has made strides in zero-emission commercial vehicles with new battery-swap and electric models arriving in Australia, backed by a strengthened balance sheet from a $3.5 million tranche of Turquoise Group sale proceeds.

Botala Energy’s Pitse Pilot well 3.5B in Botswana has successfully completed hydraulic stimulation and entered commercial production testing, marking a critical step toward establishing gas flow rates above 70 GJ/day.

Botala Energy confirms encouraging reservoir permeability at its Serowe-3.5B well in Botswana, setting the stage for hydraulic stimulation and production testing that could unlock commercial gas flows.

Botala Energy’s central production well 3.5B at the Serowe CBM Project in Botswana has completed key pre-stimulation steps, setting the stage for a multi-stage stimulation program and a 90-day flow test to evaluate commercial gas production potential.

Botala Energy’s Pitse Pilot well 3.5B reveals 30% thicker and cleaner coal seams than expected, reinforcing the project's reservoir continuity and commercial gas production potential in Botswana.
