Welchau-1 Reifling Test Interval
VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 4, 2024 /CNW/ - MCF Energy Ltd. (TSXV: MCF) (FRA: DC6) (OTCQX: MCFNF) ("MCF", "MCF Energy" or the "Company") provides an update on production testing at the Welchau-1 well in the ADX-AT-II licence in Upper Austria.
Following testing of the Steinalm formation, the Steinalm testing perforations have been isolated with a packer and a new test completion was run in the well to perforate and test the upper section of the 128-metre thick Reifling formation. On November 28, 2024 three intervals were perforated in the upper Reifling including (1) 1,324 metres to 1,340 metres measured depth (MD) (16 metres), (2) 1,346 metres to 1,351 metres (5 metres) and (3) 1,358 metres to 1,382 metres (24 metres) MD (refer Figure 1).
Limited inflow was determined based on down hole fluid levels. The well was shut in over the weekend to allow time for the well to flow reservoir fluids into the tubing string. The fluid level in the well was observed on December 3, 2024 indicating limited inflow (less than 1 cubic metre or approximately 6 barrels). Sampling of the well indicated only completion brine (not reservoir fluid) and fine solid particles of unknown origin ("Solid Contaminants") were present in the well as shown in Figure 2. The Solid Contaminants recovered had a petroliferous odour.
The well has been left shut in to determine if it can flow naturally, analyse the composition of well fluids recovered to date and potentially flow sufficient formation fluids ("Minimum Flow Volume") to enter the production tubing - by filling the annular space from the perforations to the bottom of the tubing string ("Further Well Flow Information").
The forward program for the Welchau-1 well will be determined once Further Well Flow Information is collected and assessed including whether to proceed with acidization of the reservoir which is common practice for overcoming well bore damage and enhancing productivity in carbonate reservoirs.

Forward-Looking Information
This press release contains forward-looking statements and forward-looking information (collectively "forward-looking information") within the meaning of applicable securities laws relating to the Company's plans and other aspects of our anticipated future operations, management focus, strategies, financial, operating and production results, industry conditions, commodity prices and business opportunities. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this press release contains forward-looking information regarding the anticipated timing of development plans and resource potential with respect to the Company's right to assets in Austria. Forward-looking information typically uses words such as "anticipate", "believe", "project", "expect", "goal", "plan", "intend" or similar words suggesting future outcomes, statements that actions, events or conditions "may", "would", "could" or "will" be taken or occur in the future.
The forward-looking information is based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by MCF Energy's management, including expectations and assumptions noted subsequently in this press release under oil and gas advisories, and in addition with respect to prevailing commodity prices which may differ materially from the price forecasts applicable at the time of the respective Resource Audits conducted by GCA, and differentials, exchange rates, interest rates, applicable royalty rates and tax laws; future production rates and estimates of operating costs; performance of future wells; resource volumes; anticipated timing and results of capital expenditures; the success obtained in drilling new wells; the sufficiency of budgeted capital expenditures in carrying out planned activities; the timing, location and extent of future drilling operations; the state of the economy and the exploration and production business; results of operations; performance; business prospects and opportunities; the availability and cost of financing, labour and services; the impact of increasing competition; the ability to efficiently integrate assets and employees acquired through acquisitions, the ability to market natural gas successfully and MCF's ability to access capital. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking information is based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking information because MCF Energy can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking information addresses future events and conditions, by its very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. MCF Energy's actual results, performance or achievement could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking information and, accordingly, no assurance can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking information will transpire or occur, or if any of them do so, what benefits that we will derive therefrom. Management has included the above summary of assumptions and risks related to forward-looking information provided in this press release in order to provide securityholders with a more complete perspective on future operations and such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing lists of factors are not exhaustive. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this press release and we disclaim any intent or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise, other than as required by applicable securities laws.
