In the northeast it definitely wet with the use of fracking. Chemically induced brine water is used at high pressure to fracture the shale releasing the gas. The water is separated (mostly)anyway and sent to brine or production tanks and hauled off periodically depending how active the well is. At that point it is mostly pure NG. Downstream there are more measures taken to remove water and impurities. If you could tap the piping at the wellsite then it would work fine but I only can assume that orifices and fittings, etc. wouldn't last as long as they would with gas that's travel downstream.
Bigger issue here is the pressure 1500 to 2800 PSI would have to be reduced to 35-40 PSI before it left the well site to make usable. This becomes very cost prohibitive.
In other types of wells the gas is produced by pumping oil and is a byproduct. Where as the pressure is much less and safer to separate where they can be tapped easily for domestic use. It will build pressure when pumping and stay pressurized until released by the use. There would be very little water in these types.
My experience is mostly in the Northeast on high pressure systems and don't totally understand the different kinds of wells.
In today's world you can't tap in anywhere legally without acredited contractors. Basically your not even allowed to hook up your propane tank to your house with inspections. Even the piping off of the wellsite would fall under scrutiny. Not sure how you would go about getting it done.
The taps and wellsite piping would have to be done by the Gas Co. Then your piping would have meet their standards.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
