Abstract: Lease gas, which was at one time wasted, now has several important uses. Its value as a convenient fuel is well known, Also, due chiefly to its compressibility, it furnishes an economical means of making oil flow from the oil producing formations into stock tanks. Or it can be made to give up its heavier hydrocarbons, (natural gasoline and distillate), and then be forced back in to the gas formations. It can also be collected from oil and gas separators, compressed and forced back into the producing formation, where it serves to maintain the bottom hole pressure, keeping the oil from rising into the gas sand, and lessening the water encroachment into the oil sand. Practically everj- field regulator and meter man has been, or will be, confronted with the problems of regulating and metering wet gas in one or more of the above mentioned uses that is, as a fuel, for use in various types of gas lift and kick-off arrangements, and through recycling plants, absorption plants and repressuring plants.
