Abstract: A process for producing gaseous hydrocarbon from a subterranean formation by hydraulically fracturing with injection of a liquid material under pressure such that a connecting fracture is generated extending between a lower injection well and an upper production well, where a gas-liquid interface is defined within the fracture or within the upper producing well, and producing gas across the gas-liquid interface.

Abstract: There is provided processes for producing gaseous hydrocarbon material from a subterranean formation. A process includes hydraulically fracturing the subterranean formation such that a connecting fracture is generated that extends from a lower well to an upper well, and such that gaseous hydrocarbon material is received within the connecting fracture in response to the hydraulic fracturing. Another process includes stimulating the subterranean formation, when the formation already includes the connecting fracture extending from a lower well to an upper well, such that gaseous hydrocarbon material is received within the connecting fracture in response to the stimulating.
