A REPORT FROM THE CEO: ROBERT ROHLFING

3RD QUARTER REVIEW

The third quarter has been very significant for the Company:

  • Received drill permits for wells State 10-1 and State 16-1.
  • Successfully completed both wells, significant pay zones were discovered in both holes.
  • Sampling proved significant concentrations of helium in both wells with excellent well pressure, low CO2 concentrations.
  • Purifying the helium will not involve any costly or problematic issues due to the mix of gases in our wells.
  • Completed a $13 million financing priced at $1.60.
  • Added 3 new board members to the team.
  • Began design work on a solar-powered processing facility

 

VERTICAL INTEGRATION

The Company is planning on becoming a vertically integrated helium producer selling directly to end users. Offtake discussions that have taken place over the last 2 years with helium processors made it evident that over 40% of our revenues would go to support their “processing system”. Prices for finished product have varying price points that range from $490 per mcf for shield gas to $3,200 per mcf for extreme high purity gas. We believe that the shareholders should benefit from the greater revenue achieved by finishing our own helium.

 

PRODUCTION

The Company plans to be in production starting the 4th quarter of 2021. To achieve this goal, we will undertake the general following items:

  • Finish permitting for a third well in the western part of the Holbrook basin to prove-up additional low CO2, high nitrogen content raw gas.
  • Drill third well in early November, secure gas analysis and flow rates
  • Contract with Gas Engineering firm to begin design of both well site Nitrogen stripping and final processing facilities.
  • Contract with power engineering firm to finalize solar generation site requirements. Goal is to become as close to carbon neutral as possible
  • Finalize & sign contracts with surface owners, for both power generation site and processing facilities.
  • Begin archeological studies and reviews for both well sites 4-6 and seismic acquisition
  • Exercise options for up to additional 42,000 acres of leases or some portion thereof.
  • After further gas analysis and flow testing, provide possible end users with options for purchase agreements and execute them when most advantageous for DME.
  • Secure Tractor trailer rigs as required by agreements.
  • Train plant personnel and secure additional contract drivers for trucking aspects

 

DME’S 4-YEAR PLAN:

We plan to start producing from 4 to 6 wells the fourth quarter of 2021. Our success in raising $13 million gives us the money to rapidly move forward with the first phase of our plans. Full development of our land package is expected to take approximately 4 years.

The 4-year plan to full production:

  • Total number of wells projected to be 50-55
  • Total projected capital expenditures including all drilling and infrastructure over 6 years is $45,000,000
  • Upgrade helium to end users will result in a shorter payback period.
  • Signing contracts with end users will stabilize future price swings in the helium market and give us a competitive edge.

We realize this is a very ambitious plan, however, with the success of the first 2 wells proving our geological model, it can be achieved. There is a lot of work and planning to be done along with expanding our team.

Where Helium Is Heading & Turning Desert Mountain Energy Into An Energy Company

In this interview, Andrew O’Donnell is joined by Robert Rohlfing the CEO & Chairman of Desert Mountain Energy. The key topics they discuss are:

• Helium sector
• Outsourcing excess energy
• Closes $9,125,000 Private Placement

Desert Mountain Energy (DME.V) wanted some money, the markets went all ‘No, take more! Take it all!’

“Not so long ago, one of our sales guys called Desert Mountain Energy (DME.V) and said, ‘yo desert bros, we like helium, you got helium, let’s work together.’

DME politely face-palmed. ‘We don’t really have a lot of money,’ they said. ‘We’re transitioning.’

Then their stock ran from $0.70 to $1.70.

Now they’ve got dollars…. READ MORE
