Abstract

See full text

An environmentally acceptable gas is provided, under pressure, in the annulus of a casing arrangement which connects a wellhead to an underground storage zone containing stored product. Monitoring of the gas permits detection of leaks that might occur through casing leakage to an unsealed overburden. Leak detection and product loss prevention can be conducted without deleterious environmental impact.
