gas reservoir pressure

  • 1Natural reservoir pressure —   The energy within an oil or gas reservoir that causes the oil or gas to rise (unassisted by other forces) to the earth s surface when the reservoir is penetrated by an oil or gas well. The energy may be the result of dissolved gas drive, gas… …
