Drilling operations by Wescan Energy Corp. have commenced on a multilateral horizontal oil well located in the Provost area of east-central Alberta.

"The Provost area remains a cornerstone of our asset base, and this well represents our ongoing commitment to unlocking its full potential."
The company expects the well to be drilled and completed over the coming weeks, with first production anticipated in September, 2025. Results will be disclosed once the well has been brought on stream and stabilized.
Wescan continues to advance its operational and financial initiatives with a focus on sustainable, per-share growth and value creation for shareholders.
