Converting a vehicle to propane is approximately half the cost of converting a vehicle to natural gas in Canada.
They stripped condensate and natural gas liquids and sulfur (which they alternately stored in blocks or sold, depending on demand and price), then re-injected the dry gas to cycle the reservoir to capture more liquids.
