unless the well is also producing sellable quantities of liquids, why not just valve it in until the NG...

That is the point. These are not drilled for gas wells. These are oil wells that produces some gas.

Thanks, I knew there had to be some logic to it. Now days the Oil Patch isn’t so big on wasteful actions.

Would still seem through sealed field gathering pipelines, it would be possible to run both oil and gas to some collective separator where gas could also be sold.

How about Toledo Bend!
