Table 4.  Discovery table showing recoverable gas in gas fields based on the NRG Associates Fields (1982 through 1998) dataset.																					


"Gas in gas fields in BCFG:  conventional, Lower 48 States, onshore, greater than or equal to 1 MMBOE, created 12/4/00.  Fields were classified as gas if the field gas-to-oil ratio is"																					
"20,000 cubic feet per barrel or more."
