Has anyone seen a guesstimate on how much is currently coming up???

You don't have to guess. Anywhere from 800 mcf to 2000 mcf per day.

Daily reports and math will tell you exactly, sir.

They do try to hide it by using oil production accounting..sneaky..so if 30.2..just add a few zeros to get to cubic feet. By the way..the 800 mcf figure would be a GREAT production gas well amount from what I can tell..but just a neophite in this, will defer to ENENEWS experts.

MCF is a measure of volume of natural gas. One MCF equals one thousand (1,000) cubic feet of natural gas.
M stands for the Roman numeral 1,000

Thanks… So leakage is between roughly about 10 to 30 average American households annual useage of gas per year – based on the range of leakage given.. Really, seems rather low then????…
Based on 5600 CF per month x 12 months average house gas used = about 67,000 CF per year..
Do I have this right???…

And yes 800,000 cubic feet per day is a good well, but hey, who cares when you can just flare it off and create acid rain and NOX?

That's like the volume of a hundred average sized homes. I'd say that exceeds my wildest guesses.
