Gas hydrate growth and dissociation in narrow pore networks: capillary inhibition and hysteresis phenomena [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Marine sediments hosting gas hydrates are commonly fine-grained (silts, muds, clays) with very narrow mean pore diameters (0.1 mm). This has led to speculation that capillary phenomena could play an important role in controlling hydrate distribution in

Estimation of gas hydrate concentration from multi-component seismic data at sites on the continental margins of NW Svalbard and the Storegga region of Norway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
High-resolution seismic experiments, employing arrays of closely spaced, four-component ocean-bottom seismic recorders, were conducted at a site off western Svalbard and a site on the northern margin of the Storegga slide, off Norway to investigate how ...

Numerical Simulation of Hydrate Decomposition during the Drilling Process of the Hydrate Reservoir in the Northern South China Sea

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The process of drilling in natural gas hydrate reservoirs in sea areas involves problems such as hydrate decomposition and wellbore instability. To study the response behaviors of a reservoir during the drilling process, a two-dimensional numerical model

Effects of Salinity on Formation Behavior of Methane Hydrate in Montmorillonite

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
In marine sediments, seawater influences the phase behavior of natural gas hydrate. As a porous medium, the water distribution and physical properties of montmorillonite are influenced by the salt ions in seawater.

Escape of methane gas from the seabed along the West Spitsbergen continental margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
More than 250 plumes of gas bubbles have been discovered emanating from the seabed of the West Spitsbergen continental margin, in a depth range of 150-400 m, at and above the present upper limit of the gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ).

Pore-Scale Investigation of the Electrical Property and Saturation Exponent of Archie’s Law in Hydrate-Bearing Sediments

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Characterizing the electrical property of hydrate-bearing sediments is essential for hydrate reservoir identification and saturation evaluation. As the major contributor to electrical conductivity, pore water is a key factor in characterizing the ...

Large-Scale Experimental Investigation of Hydrate-Based Carbon Dioxide Sequestration

open access: yesEnergies
Hydrate-based CO2 sequestration is a novel approach that can not only realize permanent CO2 sequestration but can also form an artificial cap to prevent its upward migration.

Characterization of Binary Hydrates Containing Methane by X-ray Diffraction and Microscopic Laser Raman Spectroscopy

open access: yesYankuang ceshi, 2021
BACKGROUND The crystal structure of natural gas hydrate mainly depends on the species and composition of guest molecules. At present, the structure and spectral characteristics of single-component hydrate are relatively clear, but the studies of multi ...

Widespread natural methane and oil leakage from sub-marine Arctic reservoirs

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Barents Sea shelf experienced >30 episodes of glaciation which scraped off layers of rocks and led to petroleum reservoirs exposed onto the seafloor. Today, such uncapped reservoirs produce strong fluxes of methane gas and oil into the ocean.

Influence of gas hydrate morphology on the seismic velocities of sands

open access: yes, 2009
This paper reports the results of a series of resonant column tests on specimens where gas hydrate has been formed in sands using an “excess water” technique.
