Botala Energy Reports Multi-Seam Gas Potential at Serowe CBM Project in Botswana

Botala Energy Ltd confirms enhanced commercial production potential at its Serowe CBM Project in Botswana following successful results from the Pitse Pilot program. A step-rate test at well S3.3 indicates that both the Serowe seam and Upper Morupule seam can deliver gas, expanding project development options. Key metrics from well S3.3 include permeability of 1 to 3mD, gas pressure of approximately 630psi, and injectivity over 10 bpm. The drilling rig is mobilized to well S3.5B for further testing.
