The practice of reservoir pressure maintenance by gas cycling has been adopted in many retrograde (wet) gas reservoirs to prevent condensation and ensuing loss of hydrocarbon liquids. An investigation of the factors involved in condensate recovery by gas cycling was made for this paper. The principle factors are (1) the sweep patterns developed by the cycled gas and the resulting wet gas recovery and (2) the revaporization of the liquid condensate within the reservoir upon contact by dry injected gas.
