Renergen’s Free State project shows ‘game changing’ potential for domestic power

Drilling at emerging natural gas and helium producer Renergen’s Virginia project, in the Free State, has progressed through the Karoo Supergroup and successfully intersected gas-charged sandstones and fractures, as was previously expected, the company reported on Monday. The gas was intersected under pressure in the morning of December 9, after the company drilled about 50 m into the sandstone.
