I think that Rick and Grayhairs are in essence saying the same thing when they speak of Vacuums and pressure gradients. While we may all be able to imagine a perfect vacuum or a perfect circle for that matter it is much more difficult to find one in nature. The existence of an open pipe hole to surface in a highly pressurized chamber would create a pressure gradient with a vacuum effect. Or in other words the highly pressurized gasses and liquids would either be pushed or sucked to the surface by the vacuum effect. The pressure at the foot of the pipe would be less than elsewhere in the chamber and the vacuum or pressure gradient would cause gasses and liquids to move towards the pipe from all directions. More drilling and testing will have to be done to determine the actual quantity of natural gas and petroleum product that is in the chamber and the rate at which it can be extracted for maximum efficiency. At present both are open to speculation and various forms of educated guesses based upon models, experience and the data that is available. Place your bets. And share you thoughts and info on the thread. Many of us are interested in learning more.
