Aggie,

To me a big unknown is the phase percentages of the flow.

If we say the resource is at 13,000 psi and he sea floor 5,000 psi there is a large amount of gas that can be released from solution. I do not know what the solubility of CH4 is in oil at the two pressures. In effect - you have flow like that from a shaken pop bottle or beer can.

If you throw in the phase composition plus the flow path questions the calculation seems semi impossible to me.

If the new cap is on next week we should have better numbers to use.

Bob
