Lost gas: condensates,
migration, fractured
reservoirs.
Develop technology to
improve ability to
interconnect formations via
ield experiments to
demonstrate deliverability
and interpret fuzzy logic.
Research gas to
electricity concepts at
peak production:
boreholes, downhole
fuel cells.
Optimize software that ties
industry well data,
hydraulics (pipe line
simulation)
characterization and
system dispatch.
New approaches to modeling
gas cycling to and from
storage.
Improve lifetime and
integrity predictions
for gas storage wells to
maintain capacity.
Correct wellbore damage.
Inventory veriication: better
techniques to handle
changing uses of reservoir
ields, e.g., average pressure.
Evaluate atypical
compression and
reservoir combinations
for rapid in and out
(4 ms) activity.
Ultrasonic meters.
Expand smart pipe
concepts to production
casing to prove
feasibility
Determine near wellbore
hydraulics.
Liquid banking.
