Abstract

This article represents a personal essay describing the fundamental differences between conventional gas accumulations and ‘tight gas’ accumulations. We have become accustomed to looking for gas in reservoirs that have good porosity and permeability to provide high flow rates. We demand excellent reservoirs to provide economic accumulations. We have avoided low permeability gas reservoirs.
