During the summer of 1995, National Fuel, through a Department of Energy (DOE) sponsored project for storage deliverability enhancement, began a stimulation project on three wells in Galbraith Storage Field. The three wells were subjected to liquid carbon fracture stimulations. Preliminary well test analysis indicated that permeability in the field was greater than anticipated, and deliverability was being adversely affected by a large skin. Eighteen-month follow-up well testing showed good maintenance of deliverability at the two propped wells and an increase in the deliverability at the unpropped well. In July 1998, flow testing was conducted to evaluate third-year performance.
