The two reservoirs, Melbourn and F-39 sands are in the Frio Formation. Reservoir characterization methods used in this study are inexpensive and geared to identify additional unrecovered resources. The methods include interpretation of well log, production and core data, and stratigraphic cross sections. Available data indicate good prospects for additional recoverable gas. Based on this study, eight wells were found to have potential for recompletion and three prospective sites were located for infill drilling
