Numerical Simulation on Sand Production Based on Laboratory Gas Hydrate Production Experiment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Gas from natural gas hydrate (NGH) is priced competitively with gas prices. Most marine NGH is stored in low cementing strata, which easily cause sand production problems, restricting the commercial production and environmental safety of NGH’s ...
