Sensitivity Analysis of Parameters Governing the Recovery of Methane from Natural Gas Hydrate Reservoirs

Naturally occurring gas hydrates are regarded as an important future source of energy and considerable efforts are currently being invested to develop methods for an economically viable recovery of this resource. The recovery of natural gas from gas hydrate deposits has been studied by a number of researchers. Depressurization of the reservoir is seen as a favorable method because of its relati...

Relationship between submarine landslides, channel erosion and thrust fault activity in the Nankai Trough, Japan

Following IODP Expedition 333, frontal ramps of submarine landslides were investigated together with a submarine channel-gully system. In this presentation they are shown to reflect thrust-fault activity in the Nankai accretionary wedge, prior to one of the major stages of movement of the large megasplay fault (MSF). Variations in channel bed slope, height and width of channels and gullies indi...
