Saturation sensitivity and influencing factors of marine DC resistivity inversion to submarine gas hydrate
نویسندگان
چکیده
The submarine gas hydrate usually exists in the sediment on continental slope. bottom simulating reflector reflected seismic was identified as of stability zone. However, many BSRs may not find hydrate’s effective storage and its underlying free places. It is essential to identify saturation hydrate. resistivity can be used evaluate porosity saturation. boasts a high resistance surrounding sediments. sensitivity marine Direct Current method (DCR) We have assessed various DCR array arrangements, towed depths, thicknesses, These influencing factors for improving recognition ability were also systematically analyzed. compared inversion results well different saturation, calculated suggest using corrected equation analyze results, which improve identification. Evaluating these parameters will help develop or select instruments detecting

Identification of Gas Accumulation Adjacent to the Gas Hydrate Bearing Zone by Inversion Utilizing AVO Attribute
The presence of gas hydrate and associated gas in the Makran Accretionary Prism, offshore Iran, has been confirmed by various seismic indicators, including the bottom-simulating reflector (BSR), amplitude blanking, and bright spot. The pre-stack analysis and the study of amplitude-variation-with-offset (AVO) attributes are the most reliable tools for semi-quantitative study of gas hydrate and f...
متن کاملRelating Gas Hydrate Saturation to Depth of Sulfate- Methane Transition
Gas hydrate can precipitate in pore space of marine sediment when gas concentrations exceed solubility conditions within a gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ). Here we present analytical expressions that relate the top of the GHSZ and the amount of gas hydrate within the GHSZ to the depth of the sulfate-methane transition (SMT). The expressions are strictly valid for steady-state systems in which...
متن کاملElectrical Resistivity Investigation of Gas Hydrate Distribution in
Electrical methods offer a potential geophysical approach to determining the sub-bottom distribution of gas hydrate in the deep marine environment. Gas hydrate is essentially nonconductive. Hence, sediments with pore spaces partially filled with hydrate or containing veins filled with hydrate are more resistive than surrounding sediments with pore spaces filled with seawater. To date, attempts ...
متن کاملFaulting of Gas-Hydrate-Bearing Marine Sediments — Contribution to Permeability
Extensive faulting is observed in sediments containing high concentrations of methane hydrate off the southeastern coast of the United States. Faults that break the sea floor show evidence of both extension and shortening; mud diapirs are also present. The zone of recent faulting apparently extends from the ocean floor down to the base of gas-hydrate stability. We infer that the faulting result...
متن کاملMetal Oxide Gas Sensors: Sensitivity and Influencing Factors
Conductometric semiconducting metal oxide gas sensors have been widely used and investigated in the detection of gases. Investigations have indicated that the gas sensing process is strongly related to surface reactions, so one of the important parameters of gas sensors, the sensitivity of the metal oxide based materials, will change with the factors influencing the surface reactions, such as c...
