Mechanical creep instability of nanocrystalline methane hydrates [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2021
Fundamental creep mechanisms of nanocrystalline methane hydrates are revealed, which are of importance to evaluate the mechanical stability of gas hydrate-bearing sediments in both terrestrial and planetological environments.

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

ANALYTICAL REVIEW OF TECHNOLOGIES OF THE INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF AQUATIC METHANOHYDRATES

open access: yesГеологія і корисні копалини Світового океану, 2022
Methane hydrates are one of the most powerful reserves of unconventional sources of hydrocarbons. This is clearly evidenced by the forecast estimates of world volumes of methane in the form of gas hydrates, which many times exceed the total resources of ...

Density functional theory studies of hydrogen bonding vibrations in sI gas hydrates

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2020
To analyze the vibrational modes of water and methane in structure I gas hydrates, we constructed a 178-atom supercell with two small cages of type 5 ^12 and six large cages of type 5 ^12 6 ^2 . We applied the density functional theory method to simulate

The Interaction of Talc, Montmorillonite, and Silica Sand with H2O Influences Methane Hydrate Formation

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Methane hydrates in natural geological settings are commonly distributed within sediments, with a variety of minerals (such as silica sand, talc, and montmorillonite).

Increased methane emissions from deep osmotic and buoyant convection beneath submarine seeps as climate warms

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Large methane hydrates reserves are found in mud volcanoes, but climate change may lead to methane release. Here, the authors show that methane adsorption creates overpressures leading to rapid recirculation of seawater, thus reducing the melting ...

Role of Salt Migration in Destabilization of Intra Permafrost Hydrates in the Arctic Shelf: Experimental Modeling

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
Destabilization of intrapermafrost gas hydrate is one possible reason for methane emission on the Arctic shelf. The formation of these intrapermafrost gas hydrates could occur almost simultaneously with the permafrost sediments due to the occurrence of a

Sensitivity and Resolution of Controlled-Source Electromagnetic Method for Gas Hydrate Stable Zone

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Natural gas hydrate is one of the most important clean energies and part of carbon cycle, due to the least carbon content. Natural gas hydrates depend on high pressure and low temperatures, located under seabed or permafrost. Small changes in temperature

Extremely High Methane Concentration in Bottom Water and Cored Sediments from Offshore Southwestern Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2006
It has been found that Bottom Simulating Reflections (BSRs), which infer the existence of potential gas hydrates underneath seafloor sediments, are widely distributed in offshore southwestern Taiwan.

Influence of temperature on methane hydrate formation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractDuring gas hydrate formation process, a phase transition of liquid water exists naturally, implying that temperature has an important influence on hydrate formation. In this study, methane hydrate was formed within the same media. The experimental system was kept at 1.45, 6.49, and 12.91 °C respectively, and then different pressurization modes ...
