Fluid Flow through Heterogeneous Methane Hydrate- Bearing Sand: Observations Using X-ray Ct Scanning
The effects of porous medium heterogeneity on methane hydrate formation, water flow through the heterogeneous hydrate-bearing sand, and hydrate dissociation were observed in an experiment using a heterogeneous sand column with prescribed heterogeneities. X-ray computed tomography (CT) was used to monitor saturation changes in water, gas, and hydrate during hydrate formation, water flow, and hyd...
متن کاملSeeding Hydrate Formation in Water-saturated Sand with Dissolved-phase Methane Obtained from Hydrate Dissolution: a Progress Report
An isobaric flow loop added to the Gas Hydrate And Sediment Test Laboratory Instrument (GHASTLI) is being investigated as a means of rapidly forming methane hydrate in watersaturated sand from methane dissolved in water. Water circulates through a relatively warm source chamber, dissolving granular methane hydrate that was pre-made from seed ice, then enters a colder hydrate growth chamber wher...
متن کاملFormation and Dissociation of Methane Hydrates from Seawater in Consolidated Sand: Mimicking Methane Hydrate Dynamics beneath the Seafloor
Methane hydrate formation and dissociation kinetics were investigated in seawater-saturated consolidated Ottawa sand-pack under sub-seafloor conditions to study the influence of effective pressure on formation and dissociation kinetics. To simulate a sub-seafloor environment, the pore-pressure was varied relative to confining pressure in successive experiments. Hydrate formation was achieved by...
متن کاملMicrobial communities from methane hydrate-bearing deep marine sediments in a forearc basin.
Microbial communities in cores obtained from methane hydrate-bearing deep marine sediments (down to more than 300 m below the seafloor) in the forearc basin of the Nankai Trough near Japan were characterized with cultivation-dependent and -independent techniques. Acridine orange direct count data indicated that cell numbers generally decreased with sediment depth. Lipid biomarker analyses indic...
متن کاملMolecular simulation of the potential of methane reoccupation during the replacement of methane hydrate by CO(2).
Molecular dynamics simulations and stabilization energy calculations are performed in this work in order to understand the stability of CH(4) hydrate, CO(2) hydrate, and CH(4)-CO(2) mixed hydrate. The model systems of fully occupied type SI CH(4) hydrate, CO(2) hydrate, and CH(4)-CO(2) mixed hydrate are prepared in a simulation box of 2 x 2 x 2 unit cell with periodic boundary conditions. The M...
