Abstract: A substantial and largely unrecognized gas resource exists in known locations where it was trapped by water influx during primary production. In many reservoirs, as much as 50% of original gas was abandoned in place when brine production increased operating cost to above revenue under low regulated gas prices. This paper provides details of a project that is demonstrating production of such gas with favorable economics. The Prets Unit No. 1 well in the N.E. Hitchcock field in Galveston County, Texas, was reentered and completed for high volume brine production in early 1983. Payout for the reentry and surface facilities not including lease and legal costs) was in thirteen months, and the well is now producing about 4000 Bbl/D brine, 900 MCF/D gas, and 60 Bbl/D oil. A second well, the Thompson Unit No. 1 well, was similarly re-entered and placed on production in March 1984. Payout for the re-entry and surface facilities was in seven months.
