Galilee Energy Limited (ASX: GLL) ('Galilee') is pleased to provide an update on the 100% owned and operated Glenaras multi well pilot programme ('Pilot') in the Galilee Basin ATP 2019.

All six new vertical wells at the Pilot have now been successfully completed. The completions rig and camp has now demobilised from site, with the completions rig due back in late January. Glenaras 19, 20 and 23 have been on continuous production following their commissioning over two weeks ago and are demonstrating excellent water rates, flowing in excess of 6,550 BWPD in aggregate. The total water rate from the full Pilot, including these five additional wells, now exceeds 13,200 BWPD which augurs well for achieving the Pilot's intended objective of accelerating the depressurisation process and achieving commercial gas flow rates.

Direct communication has been confirmed between the new vertical wells and the existing lateral wells, with water rates continuing to decline on the lateral wells and gas rates remaining steady.

Glenaras 21 and 22 were commissioned late last week and have undergone initial flow production tests as part of the rod pump commissioning process and both of these wells have now been brought online for continuous production. These new wells are also demonstrating excellent water rates, flowing in excess of 1,100 BWPD in aggregate with minimal initial drawdown. Surface pump installation and commissioning on the final well (Glenaras 17A) will follow shortly and is expected to be on production mid next week.
