Release Highlights:
- Elixir Energy Ltd. (ASX: ATX) is pleased to announce the launch of its comprehensive three-phase strategic plan in May 2025, which is centered on the advancement of its highly prospective Taroom Trough acreage in Queensland. The plan prioritizes the secure long-term retention of over 2,000 km² of acreage, aims to prove the existence of commercially viable gas reserves in targeted areas, and seeks to establish early production initiatives to deliver initial cashflows while maintaining a disciplined, phased approach to development.
- As part of its operational execution, Elixir Energy successfully drilled and tested the Daydream-2 vertical well, which initially flowed over 2.8 million standard cubic feet of gas per day before encountering formation damage due to avoidable testing adjustments. The company subsequently prepared for Phase 1 activities including the fully funded drilling of the Diona-1 well, additional 2D seismic acquisition, and the drilling of the Lorelle-3 well to further delineate key reservoir targets.
- Looking forward, Elixir’s strategic objective is to leverage its dominant acreage position adjacent to Shell’s major development activities and close proximity to the Wallumbilla Gas Hub to accelerate its path toward production. The company aims to convert more than 150 BCF of 2C contingent gas resources into independently certified 2P reserves and commence initial gas production by the end of 2027, reinforcing its role as a disciplined fast-follower in the rapidly maturing Taroom Trough resource play.

Report Highlights:
- In Q1 2025, Elixir Energy Ltd. (ASX: ATX) significantly expanded its footprint in the Taroom Trough by executing farm-in agreements with a Santos subsidiary for permits ATP 2056 and ATP 2057, where it will earn a 50% working interest upon completion of work programs involving drilling and seismic acquisition; this added approximately 1.2 TCFe of net 2C Contingent Resources and elevated Elixir to the position of largest net acreage holder in the basin, consolidating its strategic access to infrastructure near the Wallumbilla Gas Hub.
- In February 2025, the company completed a capital raise of USD 4.6MM / AUD 7MM via a placement to institutional and sophisticated investors at 3.5 cents per share, and concurrently launched a Share Purchase Plan open through 29 April 2025 aiming to raise up to an additional USD 1.3MM / AUD 2MM; during the same period, Elixir announced a farm-out of the Diona sub-block in ATP 2077 to XState Resources, who will fund the cost of drilling an exploration well, allowing Elixir to retain 100% of the remaining permit blocks while meeting regulatory retention requirements.
- The company also executed agreements to farm out its Mongolian coal seam gas and renewables assets into joint ventures where the incoming partner assumes all future funding and liabilities, and includes mutual options for potential monetization of up to USD 30MM / AUD 46MM; shortly after quarter-end, Elixir appointed Stuart Nicholls (formerly of Strike Energy) as Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director effective 14 April 2025, succeeding founding CEO Neil Young.
