A natural gas well is being drilled in your community. It is estimated that amount of recoverable natural gas is equivalent to 5 MCF and that your community will use this fuel at an initial rate of 0.4 MCF/year, selling an additional 0.6 MCF/year back to the utility. Assuming that the annual rate of increase in consumption will be at 2%, determine how long (in years) it will take to exhaust this natural gas well

A new well is to be drilled in a developed area. The production data for a typical well in the area is shown in the Table below. These are used to forecast the production of the new well over an 11 year life. The initial production rate for wells in the area is bellow the allowable rate and thus there is no period of constant rate production. Other data are as follows: Crude oil price = $30 per barrel Royalty...
