FIRST NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION FROM COHO
CALGARY, ALBERTA (October 11, 2022) - Touchstone Exploration
Inc. ( " Touchstone ", "we", "our", "us" or the " Company " ) (TSX,
LSE: TXP) is pleased to announce that the Coho facility has safely
delivered first natural gas, representing the first onshore natural
gas project to come onstream in Trinidad and Tobago in over twenty
years. The Coho area is located in the Ortoire block, where
Touchstone has an 80 percent operating working interest and
Heritage Petroleum Company Limited holds the remaining 20 percent
working interest.
On September 26, 2022, the Coho facility was approved by the
Certified Verification Agent with the Trinidad and Tobago Ministry
of Energy and Energy Industries promptly authorizing facility
commissioning. On September 27, 2022, we commenced commissioning
and achieved commercial deliveries on October 10, 2022, with a
field estimated sustained gross production rate of approximately
10.5 million cubic feet per day (approximately 8.4 million cubic
feet per day net).
We will continue to monitor the Coho-1 well in an effort to
optimize production. In conjunction with initial production, we
have sold the 2.7-kilometre, 6-inch gathering line tying in our
Coho facility to the Baraka natural gas facility to The National
Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago Limited ("NGC"). Natural gas
production from the Coho facility will be sold to NGC pursuant to a
natural gas sales agreement executed in December 2020.
Paul Baay, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"This is very exciting for the Company, as Coho production
represents the first stage of diversifying our product mix in
Trinidad. The Coho facility is capable of 24 million cubic feet of
gross natural gas per day, giving us the ability to potentially add
incremental production volumes through a combination of additional
drilling and well optimization. I would also like to recognize the
collective contributions of our team in making this project a
success. Being the first onshore gas project in over twenty years,
we have learnt from the process, which we expect will provide a
strong foundation for continuous improvement as we proceed with our
larger Cascadura project."
