Vintage strikes gas supply pact with Vault to test Cullen-1 for ‘Well to Wire’ data centre power

An announcement from Vintage Energy Ltd. ( (AU:VEN) ) is now available.

Vintage Energy has signed a Heads of Agreement with Vault Energy to negotiate a gas sales deal for potential production from the Cullen-1 well in EP 126 in the onshore Bonaparte Basin, contingent on successful flow testing and a final gas sales agreement. The arrangement would see gas used to power modular, onsite data centres developed by Vault, positioning Cullen-1 as a potential pilot for Australia’s first “Well to Wire” project and offering Vintage a pathway to monetise a long-suspended asset once access and tenure issues with the Northern Territory Government are resolved.

The Cullen-1 well, drilled in 2014 and showing strong gas over a 1,000-metre interval but never flow-tested, is now expected to move forward following NT Government advice that environmental management plan applications can be submitted for EP 126. Vintage plans to fund the flow test via a farm-out, while Vault aims to scale the project if initial tests are commercially viable, potentially opening a new model for converting stranded gas into dispatchable power for digital infrastructure and creating a new revenue stream during further exploration of the permit.
