Thank you Mr. Kalb. I was hoping someone such as yourself would arrive to explain what you did; my recollection of the exact physics involved has been dimmed by the passage of time, but I was quite certain the phenomenon we are observing in the well could be explained by fluid dynamics and the Bernoulli Effect. I was hesitant to draw the analogy of an automobile carburetor but I believe it can be done; the natural gas is the "intake airflow" and the frac fluids are the "gasoline". The natural gas carburetes the frac fluids and brings them along according to the principles of fluid dynamics as you described. A higher natural gas flow rate and this carburetion effect would not be as pronounced, or would even not occur at all, thus leaving the frac fluids behind... for good.
