Natural gas occurs in porous (spongeâ€"like) rock, many hundreds of feet below the earth‘s surface. The search for natural gas involves making detailed geological and geophysical studies, and drilling exploratory wells. When a producing well is discovered, further drilling is carried out to determine the extent of the gas formation.
