TL;DR: For the first time, gas hydrate samples were recovered in the South China Sea during a drilling campaign implemented in Shenhu area in June 2007 as mentioned in this paper, where gas hydrates were structure I based on the Raman spectroscopic results.

TL;DR: In this article, a production model using three different recovery pressures was established to assess the production feasibility from both production potential and geomechanical response, and the simulation results showed that for this special Class 1 deposit, it is a little hard for gas production rate to reach the commercial extraction rate because the degree of hydrate dissociation is limited due to the low reservoir permeability and the permeable burdens.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of both drilling mud properties and initial reservoir conditions on the wellbore stability were further investigated under the condition of drilling mud invasion into the natural gas hydrate-bearing sediments.

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of joint depressurization and thermal stimulation to extract the gas in Shenhu area, South China Sea was numerically investigated, and the influences of warm water injection and the horizontal well placements on the gas production were mainly discussed.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors performed a Raman spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction analysis on a hydrate-bearing sediment sample, which showed nodular occurrence with host matrix predominantly composed of silty sand and clay.
