FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary
PALM BEACH, FL, Aug. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Oil and Gas extraction is the exploration and production of petroleum and natural gas from wells. The main types are oil & gas upstream activities, oil downstream products. Oil and gas upstream activities include exploration activities, such as creating geological surveys and obtaining land rights and production activities, such as onshore and offshore drilling. The various drilling types include offshore; onshore that are used for residential, commercial, institutions and other applications. A report from the Business Research Company said that: The global oil and gas market grew from $6,989.65 billion in 2022 to $7,330.80 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The Russia–Ukraine (activities) disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The (dispute) between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The oil and gas market is expected to grow to $8,670.91 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 4.3%. Low interest rates in most developed countries will positively impact the oil and gas industry during the forecast period. For instance, in March 2020, UK decreased the interest rates to 0.1% which was the lowest ever. Furthermore, other central banks of countries such as North Macedonia, South Africa, Malaysia, Kenya, Argentina, Ukraine, Sri Lanka, and Azerbaijan, as well as Turkey also decreased their interest rates in 2020.” Active Mining Companies from around the markets with current developments this week include: Trio Petroleum Corp. (NYSE: TPET), Devon Energy Corp. (NYSE: DVN), Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: OXY), Marathon Oil Corporation (NYSE: MRO), Southwestern Energy Company (NYSE: SWN).
Business Research continued: “Major companies in the oil and gas industry are looking into big data analytics and Artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance decisions making abilities and thus drive profits. The companies in this industry gather huge amounts of raw data relating to the working of refineries, pipelines and other infrastructure through a large number of sensors placed across the oil rig. Using big data analytics, the companies can detect patterns which can allow them to quickly react to unwanted changes or potential defects, thus saving costs. AI allows the companies to take better drilling and operational decisions. Companies such as ExxonMobil and Shell have been increasingly investing in AI technology to have a centralized method of data management and support data integration across multiple applications. Other companies such as Sinopec, a Chinese chemical and petroleum corporation, has announced its decision to construct 10 intelligent centers to help in reducing operation costs by 20%.”
Trio Petroleum Corp. (NYSE American: TPET) BREAKING NEWS: Trio Petroleum Corp Announces Selection of the Monterey Formation Brown Zone as the Second Test Interval at its HV-1 Discovery Well
- The Brown Zone is the Core Reserve Zone to now be tested after exciting production results from its first test in the Mid-Monterey Formation.
- Investor Conference Call today at 4:30PM EST to Discuss Exciting Test Results and Trio’s Future Plans
Trio Petroleum Corp. (“Trio” or the “Company”), a California-based oil and gas company, today announced that the second test interval at the HV-1 discovery well of the South Salinas Project will be the Brown Zone (” Brown Chert “), of the Miocene Age Monterey Formation.
The Brown Zone (aka Brown Chert) and the overlying Yellow Zone (aka Yellow Chert) are the primary reservoir objectives of the HV-1 well and both are attributed oil and gas reserves in the Company’s Reserve Report as filed with the SEC. The first test interval, the Mid-Monterey Clay, is a deeper stratigraphic interval (i.e., below the Brown Chert) that is not attributed oil and/or gas reserves in the Company’s Reserve Report but which, nevertheless, and importantly, appears to potentially be capable of commercial oil and gas production at the HV-1 well. Thus, the Brown-Zone test will be the first test in the HV-1 well of the Company’s reserves as delineated in the Company’s Reserve Report as filed with the SEC.
The current plan is to perforate and acidize (for borehole clean-up) approximately 350 feet of the Brown Zone in an interval from approximately 5,465 to 5,850 feet measured depth and to then test the well via swabbing operations. Operations may commence during the week of August 28, with initial production results estimated one or two weeks thereafter.
The Company believes the Yellow Zone to be the best oil and gas reservoir target in the HV-1 well. It will be tested shortly after the test of the Brown Zone, unless the underlying Brown Zone, and/or the Brown Zone commingled with the Mid-Monterey Clay, is put on production, in which case the test of the Yellow Zone will be put on-hold until an appropriate time.
Trio has scheduled a webinar media interactive call to be held today, Wednesday, August 23 at 4:30PM EST. The following are the details on how to join the conference call:

Trio’s CEO, Frank Ingriselli, stated: “We’re delighted by the promising initial results from testing the Mid-Monterey Clay in the HV-1 well. It consistently exhibited impressive swabbing rates, such as 400 to 500 barrels of fluid per day. During the swab runs, oil recovery reached remarkable rates, as demonstrated by the earlier report citing up to 125 BOPD. However, our enthusiasm remains even high er as we prepare to advance to upper depths for testing the Brown Zone. Our aspirations are aimed at achieving even greater yields of oil and gas production, including higher gravity oil. All signs point to a very exciting testing phase ahead.” CONTINUED… Read this and more news for Trio Petroleum at: https://ir.trio-petroleum.com/press-releases/
