TL;DR: In this paper, different quartz sand particle sizes were applied to simulate the sediment of hydrate reservoir to evaluate the exchange ability of gas and water in the pores of the sediment during hydrate dissociation.

TL;DR: In this article, experiments of methane hydrate dissociation by heat stimulation with different well-spacing were firstly performed in the Cubic Hydrate Simulator (CHS) and an evaluation factor was firstly proposed, which considered the combined effect of the gas production rate per well, the heat consumption per unit of gas production (HGP), the moderate Rinj and the shorter well spacing benefit for gas recovery.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Pilot-Scale Hydrate Simulator (PHS, 117.8 L pressure vessel) to evaluate the performance of the steam assisted gravity drainage and steam assisted anti-gravity drainage (SAAD) methods.

TL;DR: In this article, a pilot-scale hydrate simulator was used to evaluate the performance of the sagd method on the methane hydrate reservoir with different steam injection rates, showing that the gas production rate increases with the steam injection rate, while the energy efficiency ratio (eer) and gas-to-water ratios are improved by the decrease of the steam injected rate.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the isothermal pressure search method for four components of TBAB aqueous solutions and showed that the three phase equilibrium lines obtained in the present study are shifted to the low-temperature or high-pressure side from that of the stoichiometric TBAB solution.
