Mess around with the Vespene Geyser behaviour. The simplest solution is to give it maximum gas (-2^31) so that it underflows and keeps being harvested. The amount is so stupid it will likely never deplete by the time your session ends.

You can also give the gas behaviour on the refineries themselves the ability to support depleted harvesting at the same rate as un-depleted. This will mean even if they do deplete they will still give you full gas as if they had not. This may require some messing around with the placement requirements so that you can build it on depleted refineries.

Finally you should be able to replenish gas some how either via triggers or via periodic effects. This would guarantee it never runs out of gas as you can replenish it to some fixed amount continuously.
