Vortex Energy Corp. has completed core logging and initial sample analysis at the Robinsons River Salt Project in Newfoundland in collaboration with the University of Alberta. The study aimed to evaluate the potential for underground hydrogen storage (UHS) at the site, focusing on Well VW231. The examination of samples from the 608-meter well revealed promising characteristics for hydrogen storage, including excellent sealing abilities in gypsum and mudstone layers, no vertical or horizontal fractures indicating structural soundness, and the presence of rare minerals and bitumen denoting a complex geological history. The company plans to conduct advanced tests like fluid inclusion analysis and hydrogen-mineral interaction experiments to further validate the site's safety and effectiveness for UHS. The completion of the core analysis showcases the site's geological suitability for hydrogen storage, with the well samples demonstrating essential sealing capabilities and strong structural integrity, setting a positive tone for potential future hydrogen storage development in the area.
