  • Patent number: 6213201
    Abstract: A system for enhancing gas production from ‘tight sands’ gas wells by the use of expansion tanks, designed to accept the discharged volume of gas and well fluids from at least one production cycle at a reduced pressure, plumbed in a unique manner, and controlled by strategically located switch gauges, that allow naturally controlled fluid clean-out cycles. The purpose of this invention is to eliminate well shut-ins and gas loss, experienced with conventional gas production methods, and to allow more efficient exhaustion of predicted natural gas well reserves, with minimal well supervision and maintenance expense.
