Abstract: A number of deep high-pressure reservoirs have been discovered throughout the Southwest over the past 20 years, which contain hydrocarbon fluids having properties which are contrary to, or rather, the inverse of those fields producing oil and gas from shallower depths. These fluids appear to be gaseous in nature, as they are found to exist originally in the reservoir. Actually these condensate hydrocarbons are present as a single phase fluid of relatively high density but possessing no surface or liquid meniscus. The peculiar behaviour of these hydrocarbon mixtures in partially condensing when brought to the surface under reduced pressures has resulted in their being termed retrograde or opposite in nature to ordinary gas which requires an increase in pressure to bring about condensation
