Gas outburst with sediments because of tetrahydrofuran hydrate dissociation
Methane hydrate (MH) is a new energy resource in the 21 century. But the dissociation of MH from sediments during the MH exploration or oil/gas exploration under a hydrate layer accompanied by the softening of soils and formation of excess pore gas pressure may lead to ground failures and environmental disasters. In this study, experiments on modeling the weakening and failure of the sediment b...
متن کاملUltrasonic Velocities in Laboratory-formed Gas Hydrate-bearing Sediments
Gas Hydrates are widely distributed in the near surface at high latitudes and many ocean bottoms. Our laboratory measurements help calibrate the seismic and well log data that are used to ascertain the in situ distribution of hydrates. Ultrasonic velocities are measured in unconsolidated sand specimen under thermobaric conditions comparable to those found in shallow oceanic or permafrost region...
متن کاملPore-network study of methane hydrate dissociation.
A two-dimensional pore-network model based on invasion percolation is used to study the patterns obtained from the release of methane during the dissociation of methane hydrates (without including dissociation kinetics) caused by a sudden pressure reduction in the system below the hydrate equilibrium pressure. The concept of the critical gas saturation S(gc) (volume fraction of the gas phase at...
متن کاملEffective control of gas hydrate dissociation above the melting point of ice.
Direct measurements of the dissociation behaviors of pure methane and ethane hydrates trapped in sintered tetrahydrofuran hydrate through a temperature ramping method showed that the tetrahydrofuran hydrate controls dissociation of the gas hydrates under thermodynamic instability at temperatures above the melting point of ice.
متن کاملAcoustic Determination of Methane Hydrate Dissociation Pressures
The unique nature of the molecular structures of gas hydrates results in curious acoustic properties which have yet to be adequately characterized. Understanding the acoustic behavior of hydrates in liquids, in bubbly liquids, and in sediments containing liquids and/or gas is vital for surveying their location using seismic or echosounding techniques and may become a key tool for monitoring hyd...
