This book is a companion to "Natural Gas Hydrate in Oceanic and
Permafrost Environments" (Max, 2000, 2003), which is the first book
on gas hydrate in this series. Although other gases can naturally
form clathrate hydrates (referred to after as 'hydrate'), we are
concerned here only with hydrocarbon gases that form hydrates. The
most important of these natural gases is methane. Whereas the first
book is a general introduction to the subject of natural gas
hydrate, this book focuses on the geology and geochemical controls
of gas hydrate development and on gas extraction from naturally
occurring hydrocarbon hydrates. This is the first broad treatment
of gas hydrate as a natural resource within an economic geological
framework. This book is written mainly to stand alone for brevity
and to minimize duplication. Information in Max (2000; 2003) should
also be consulted for completeness. Hydrate is a type of clathrate
(Sloan, 1998) that is formed from a cage structure of water
molecules in which gas molecules occupying void sites within the
cages stabilize the structure through van der Waals or hydrogen
bonding.
