Omega Oil & Gas Starts Civil Works for Well-Pad Preparation at Queensland Project

Omega Oil & Gas (ASX:OMA) said civil works for well-pad preparation began for the first wells in its drilling program on the oil and gas-bearing eastern flank of the Taroom Trough in Queensland, at the Canyon project and ATP 2081, according to a Tuesday Australian bourse filing.The 2026 appraisal program will comprise four vertical wells and one or two horizontal wells of 2,000 meters of lateral length.Its drilling program is scheduled to start around the end of June, and it seeks to de-risk the oil and gas play on the eastern flank of the Taroom Trough. The wells will delineate reservoir quality and distribution over a broad area and identify "sweet spots."

Elixir Energy Holds Largest Net Acreage in Queensland's Taroom Trough After 24% Increase in Discovered Resources, Euroz Hartleys Says

Elixir Energy (ASX:EXR) now holds an estimated contingent resource position of 3.5 trillion cubic feet equivalent (Tcfe) of gas in the Taroom Trough acreage following a 24% increase in discovered resources, giving it the largest net acreage position in the Queensland oil and gas basin, Euroz Hartleys said in an April 24 note.That compares with a basin position of 1.7 Tcfe for peer Omega Oil & Gas (ASX:OMA), the equity research firm said.Elixir Energy's Lorelle-3H well is arguably "the best drilled in the basin to date," with a horizontal length of 1,157 meters and average porosity of over 11%, which materially de-risks the company's upcoming hydraulic fracturing and flow test from the middle of June, Euroz Hartleys said.The company also has a 50% stake in the Diona well, a side project on the fringes of the Taroom Trough that recently returned "encouraging" drilling results to prove potential opportunity for near-term cashflow, the equity research firm said.Euroz Hartleys reiterated its speculative buy recommendation on Elixir Energy with an under-review price target of AU$0.28.Elixir Energy and Omega Oil & Gas' shares each fell past 3% in recent Monday trade.

Elixir Energy Front-Runner in Queensland-Based Taroom Trough, Says Euroz Hartleys

Elixir Energy (ASX:EXR) is a key pick to tap the potential of the Taroom Trough, an emerging onshore oil and gas basin in Queensland that is gaining mainstream attention, Euroz Hartleys said Monday in a note.Queensland Premier David Crisafulli last week led federal officials on a visit to the Taroom Trough with operators including Elixir Energy to highlight the basin's potential as a source of energy security.Elixir, much like the oil giant Shell, which is steering the commercialization of the basin, commenced feasibility work on Friday with APA Group (ASX:APA) on a pipeline linking potential Taroom Trough gas production to the Wallumbilla Gas Hub, improving access to domestic and export markets. Early drilling results from these companies are suggesting encouraging resource potential.Euroz Hartleys is betting on Elixir as the company trades at about half the valuation of basin peer Omega Oil and Gas (ASX:OMA) despite holding the largest net acreage and resource position in the Taroom. Additionally, Elixir holds a 50% stake in the Diona well, a side project close to the Taroom, which could support small-scale and near-term production if testing is successful.Euroz Hartleys maintained its speculative buy rating on Elixir Energy and raised its price target to AU$0.28 from AU$0.19.
