Title: A Review Of Problems And Their Solutions In The Hillsboro Gas Storage Field

Abstract: Comparatively low vertical permeablility prevented sufficient thickening of the gas saturation in our Hillsboro storage reservoir to prevent water invasion into the wellbores during the early part of winter withdrawals of gas. The problem was solved by perforating another interval in the well casing five feet below the original perforated interval and installing a production packer with a seating nipple in the five feet unperforated interval. The gas bubble was then thickened by injecting gas into the deeper zone through the packer. By installing a blanking plug in the seating nipple thus limiting winter-time gas withdrawals to the upper perforated zone the movement of water into the wellbores is prevented. The production of loose sand with the gas from one of the welts in the Hillsboro Field was successfully terminated by treating the formation around ihe wellbore with a readily available resinous plastic material called San fix.
