Drive towards Environmentally Friendly Inhibitors for Natural Gas Hydrate Formation Prevention
This work summarizes methods for prevention of gas pipeline clogging by natural gas hydrate formation – with emphasis on development of environmentally friendly hydrate inhibitors. The work highlights advantages and disadvantages of current solutions and encourages future studies on new type of inhibitors based on ice-structuring proteins.
متن کاملGas hydrate-related sedimentary pore pressure changes offshore Angola
The thickness of the free gas column below the base of the gas hydrate stability zone is a proxy for the pore pressure in the free gas bearing sediments underneath. In the study area the pore over-pressrues derived under this assumption range between 0 and 1430 kPa ± 30% which appear to be the typical maximum over-pressure that the gas hydrate sediments can withstand before hydro-fracturing occ...
متن کاملOcean Drilling Program Leg 204 Scientific Prospectus Drilling Gas Hydrates on Hydrate Ridge, Cascadia
During Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 204, we will drill a transect of sites through the gas hydrate stability zone on the southern part of Hydrate Ridge on the Cascadia accretionary margin offshore Oregon. Massive hydrates are present at the seafloor there, and high-resolution threedimensional seismic data indicate a complicated subsurface plumbing system. The transect will cover two distinc...
متن کاملPassing gas through the hydrate stability zone at southern Hydrate Ridge, offshore Oregon
We present an equilibrium model of methane venting through the hydrate stability zone at southern Hydrate Ridge, offshore Oregon. Free gas supplied from below forms hydrate, depletes water, and elevates salinity until pore water is too saline for further hydrate formation. This system self-generates local three-phase equilibrium and allows free gas migration to the seafloor. Log and core data f...
متن کاملExperimental Determination of the Temperature Suppression in Formation of Gas Hydrate in Water Based Drilling Mud
The aqueous mixtures of light gas molecules under low-temperature and high-pressure conditions are candidates to form gas hydrate clathrates. The formation of gas hydrate may lead to various problems and extra charges in natural gas production and processing. The presence of hydrate crystals forming a stable solid phase can potentially block the wells, pipes, and process facilities. To avoid su...
