On the Mechanism of Gas Hydrate Formation in Subsea Sediments
INTRODUCXION Gas hydrates are crystalline molecular complexes formed from mixtures of water and suitably sized gas molecules. Based on hydrogen bonding, water molecules form unstable lattice structures with several interstitial cavities. The gas molecules can occupy the lattice cavities and, when a minimum number of cavities are occupied, the crystalline structure becomes stable and solid gas h...
متن کاملChloride waters of Great Britain revisited: from subsea formation waters to onshore geothermal fluids
It has long been known that chloride-dominated saline ground waters occur at depth in the UK, not only beneath the sea but also onshore at depths of a few hundred metres. In a few places in northern England, these saline waters discharge naturally at surface in the form of springs. In recent years, however, these saline ground waters have come to be regarded as resources: as potential geotherma...
متن کاملSimulation of subsea control systems
The pumping system is modelled as shown in Figure 3. Please note that it is an advantage to limit the size of the model by leaving out components which are not active in the sequences that we will be looking at. This is because all of the elements included in a model are included in the calculations, taking up part of our computer’s capacity. This is also the case for passive components such as...
متن کاملFormation Kinetics of Structure H Gas Hydrate
This paper investigates the kinetics of structure H (sH) formation kinetics above and below the structure I (sI) formation equilibrium curve at temperatures of between 2°C and 6°C. Methane was used as a help gas and methylcyclohexane (MCH) was used as sH former. It was concluded that in the points above the sI formation equilibrium curve, at the first, the sI forms, and then converts to sH be...
متن کاملSafe Formation Control with Obstacle Avoidance
In this paper, we consider the general problem of guaranteeing safe interaction of humans and a group of mobile agents in an environment of interest. The way that we guarantee such a safe interaction is via proposing algorithms that prevent the agents from colliding with environmental obstacles with unknown sizes and locations, e.g. human operators. To do so, we first consider the problem of fo...
