👉 Gaging is a method of measuring the pressure in an oil or gas well by applying a pressure gauge to a hole drilled into the ground. This technique was first used in the 1870s and has been widely adopted in modern drilling operations. The process involves pouring water into the hole, then applying a pressure gauge to measure the amount of water that is present within the hole. If there is an excess of water in the hole, it means that more oil or gas is being released
