Gasworld reports on our successful completion of drilling at the Mbelele-2 well in Tanzania’s North Rukwa Basin. This milestone was significant as it marks a crucial step in the exploration and appraisal program. The drilling encountered strong helium shows, indicating the potential for commercial helium production.
The Mbelele-2 well is part of Noble Helium’s broader strategy to explore and develop Tanzania’s helium resources, which are considered some of the best undeveloped helium prospects globally. The article emphasises that the successful drilling results bolster confidence in the region’s helium potential and pave the way for further exploration and development activities.
This development is crucial given the global helium supply challenges and the increasing demand for helium in various high-tech and medical applications. The successful drilling at Mbelele-2 positions the company to play a significant role in meeting the world’s growing helium demand through sustainable and reliable sources.
