Storing Natural Gas from Well in Propane Tank?
Thanks Q_Goest. I figured as much too. Every 21 days the well would recover only 8 psi or so. The boiler needs more than 5 ccf for one day's heating cycle. It's impossible. I would need a HUGE tank, maybe 10,000 gallons. It would be cheaper (but a gamble) to re-drill the well deeper. My only...- jimoferie

Storing Natural Gas from Well in Propane Tank?
Thanks for staying with this problem. I really appreciate it. I apologize for not having all the information to make a sound decision. The Gas Company bill shows CCF as "One hundred cubic feet of gas; a measure of quantity". Let me give you our latest gas bill info and a historical...- jimoferie

Storing Natural Gas from Well in Propane Tank?
I really am a "dummy" when it comes to Physics & Math. How does one (figure) integrate the "production rate - consumption rate" over a year? I chose a propane tank because they can be found rather inexpensively in our area, even though the psi from the well has never been above 11psi in the 10...- jimoferie

Storing Natural Gas from Well in Propane Tank?
Hi experts! As you will see I am NOT one but I have a rather unique problem in search of a solution. I have a natural gas well that runs 11psi but has little volume because it is only 412 feet deep. Rather than pay thousands to drill to approx 850 feet to improve volume, I thought it...- jimoferie
