Got a new theory. In the first place, nothing is getting sucked anywhere. Picture this well has a jagged ceiling made from nonporous materials, similar in shape to an egg carton. These inverted peaks dip down into the water area of the well forming gas traps that are separated from each other. The water is common to many gas trap areas, thus creating an equal pressure in all areas. The pipe reduces the pressure at the top of one of these areas. When this happens, gas in adjacent areas expands due to the drop of pressure that is experienced by all the traps. When this happens, the water is pushed to the top of the punctured zone, forcing the water into the pipe. To get more gas, all that needs to be done is to drill sideways into another zone. Is it likely that a pay zone could have these kinds of characteristics?
