Comparison of kinetic and equilibrium reaction models in simulating gas hydrate behavior in porous media
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the use of kinetic and equilibrium reaction models in the simulation of gas hydrate behavior in porous media and find that the calculated responses for both reaction models are remarkably similar, though some differences are observed at early times.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of remolded hydrate-bearing clayey-silty sediments
TL;DR: In this paper , a series of triaxial shear tests were carried out to explore the effects of hydrate saturation, effective confining pressure and clay content on the mechanical properties of HBCSS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of surface property of mixed clays on methane hydrate formation in nanopores: A molecular dynamics study.
TL;DR: In this paper , the effects of surface properties and layer charges of mixed clays on hydrate formation were investigated in mixed clay nanopores of montmorillonite, illite, and kaolinite.

A closed-form equation for predicting the hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated soils
van Genuchten,M. Th. +1 more
TL;DR: Van Genuchten et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a closed-form analytical expression for predicting the hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated soils based on the Mualem theory, which can be used to predict the unsaturated hydraulic flow and mass transport in unsaturated zone.

Current perspectives on gas hydrate resources
Ray Boswell,Timothy S. Collett +1 more
TL;DR: A series of recent field expeditions have provided new insights into the nature of gas hydrate occurrence; perhaps most notably, the understanding that gas hydrates occur in a wide variety of geologic settings and modes of occurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics of methane hydrate decomposition
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the kinetics of methane hydrate decomposition using a semibatch stirred-tank reactor and showed that the decomposition rate was proportional to the particle surface area and to the difference in the fugacity of methane at the equilibrium pressure and the degradation pressure.

Key Findings of the World’s First Offshore Methane Hydrate Production Test off the Coast of Japan: Toward Future Commercial Production
Yoshihiro Konno,Tetsuya Fujii,Akihiko Sato,Koya Akamine,Motoyoshi Naiki,Yoshihiro Masuda,Koji Yamamoto,Jiro Nagao +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the first offshore methane hydrate production test conducted at the eastern Nankai Trough and show key findings toward future commercial production, which indicates that hydrate saturation reaches 80% and permeability in the presence of hydrate ranges from 0.01 to 10 mD.
