Red Lake Area 2D Seismic Survey Completed
Jade's Seismic Survey (ASX Announcement 6 July 2023) covering the Red Lake 246 Bcf1
contingent resource
area in the south Gobi region of Mongolia, has been completed on time and on budget by specialist
Mongolian contractor Geosignals LLC.
A total of 105km of high quality 2D seismic data was acquired which will provide enhanced geological data
coverage of the Red Lake area in the TTCBM Project. The data acquired is an important component to assist
our technical team as they finalise planning for the upcoming pilot lateral well drilling.
The 2D survey is a key to optimising success of the project by identifying potential changes in the coal seam
along the path of the wells based on the seismic response. Specifically, the 19-line survey was designed to:
? Delineate the coal seams to assist with steering the forthcoming lateral wells in the target seams,
maximising contact with the coal and de-risking the wells by identifying potential geological hazards
before drilling;
? Better visualise the structure of the entire Red Lake area, looking for structural flexes that may
indicate areas of improved permeability; and
? Identify potential zones of seam thickening where resource concentration will be higher.
Renowned data processing company, Earth Signal Processing Ltd, has been engaged to process the seismic
data from the survey, with interpretation to commence shortly thereafter.
Commenting on the completion of the 2D Seismic Survey, Jade Executive Director, Joe Burke, said:
“We are pleased to conclude the acquisition of seismic data that will be used to finalise planning for our
upcoming pilot production program. The team has done a tremendous job delivering this on budget and
schedule as we continue to focus on our commercial pathway to first gas production.”
