- 45 - ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Transporting pressure vessel means are mounted on watercraft, and are utilized to recover raw natural gas from shut in offshore wells. After a discrete batch of raw gas is contained within the transporting pressure vessel means, the watercraft is moved to a processing station, also preferably located on a platform offshore. At the processing station, liquids are separated from the natural gas, and then the natural gas is passed through a dehydrator before being transported or transmitted. The invention allows recovery of natural gas from offshore wells, without the need to place processing equipment at each well. In an embodiment especially for use with ocean-located wells, a production barge carrying storage pressure vessel means is positioned at the well site, to which watercraft are connected for loading raw natural gas.
