This study has developed a database and information system on the problems and potential of unconventional gas resource options in the Gulf Coast and the assessment of each option's potential and remaining problems. Such options investigated in this study were the geologic evaluation of selected gasfields, a national resource assessment of unconventional gas and an assessment of gas production from hydropressured aquifers. A reservoir engineering analysis on the mechanism of a proposed enhanced recovery method and the geophysical and geochemical analysis and applications on selected watered-out gas reservoirs was also conducted. Simulation modeling produced in this study included the subsidence of a given reservoir and the production and pressure history of a water-driven gas reservoir.
