Trillion Energy International Inc. (“Trillion” or the “Company”) (Frankfurt: Z62) is pleased to announce flow test results for the West Akcakoca-1 natural gas well at the SASB gas field, offshore Turkey.

The West Akcakoca well two lower “D” sands with a combined total of 7 metres of natural gas pay were perforated on March 24, 2023. These two zones were flow tested at a rate of 5.9 MMcf/day. Shut-in pressure was 1620 psi. The well will now enter long-term production. 48 metres of gas pay remains to be perforated in the future and will ensure a long-term production horizon for the well.
