Natural Gas Reservoir with initial formation temperature  T_i > T_{c, \rm max} above Cricondentherm  T_{c, \rm max} and stays gaseuous at separator (outside Vapour Liquid Envelopesee Fig. 1).


Fig. 1. Production path of the Dry Gas Reservoir on the Phase Equilibrium Diagram.

The downward solid black arrow shows a reservoir pressure depletion path. 

The downward grey dash arrow shows a wellbore lift pressure drop path.
