CALGARY, Canada (Aug. 11, 2025)—All site construction and preparatory work is now complete near Brooks, Alberta, where Sonoro Energy plans to drill the Countess Well in August.

For six days ending Aug. 10, construction crews were busy staking, sweeping, surveying, stripping topsoil and grading in preparation for drilling operations.

Sonoro will provide an update on revised timing for drilling the Countess Well as soon as an alternative rig is sourced.

The Countess well is located at 04-15-19-15 W4, approximately 10 kilometers west of Brooks. Sonoro is the Operator of the well and holds a 100% working interest in the project.

By drilling the Countess well, Sonoro will earn a 100% interest in 3.5 sections of prospective leases currently held by Badlands Resources. Several similar follow-up prospects have already been mapped on this acreage, reinforcing the strategic importance of this initial test well.
