This is the first book that attempts to broadly integrate the most
recent knowledge in the fields of hydrate nucleation and growth in
permafrost regions and marine sediments. Gas hydrate reactant
supply, growth models, and implications for pore fill by natural
gas hydrate are discussed for both seawater precursors in marine
sediments and for permafrost hydrate. These models for forming
hydrate concentrations that will constitute targets for exploration
are discussed, along with exploration methods. Thermodynamic models
for the controlled conversion of hydrate to natural gas, which can
be recovered using conventional industry practices, suggest that a
number of different types of hydrate occurrence are likely to be
practical sources of hydrate natural gas. Current progress in the
various aspects of commercial development of hydrate gas deposits
are discussed, along with the principal extractive issues that have
yet to be resolved.
Audience
The book will be of interest to petroleum geologists, earth
scientists (marine geology and geophysics), government departments
and institutions concerned with energy resources.
CD-ROM included
A CD-ROM is included containing additional figures, and a
selection of high quality color images which are printed in black
and white in the book itself.
