The Use of Horizontal Wells in Gas Production from Hydrate Accumulations
The amounts of hydrocarbon gases trapped in natural hydrate accumulations are enormous, leading to a recent interest in the evaluation of their potential as an energy source. Earlier studies have demonstrated that large volumes of gas can be readily produced at high rates for long times from gas hydrate accumulations by means of depressurization-induced dissociation, using conventional technolo...
متن کاملGeologic and Engineering Controls on the Production of Permafrost–associated Gas Hydrate Accumulations
In 1995, the U.S. Geological Survey made the first systematic assessment of the in-place natural gas hydrate resources of the United States. That study suggested that the amount of gas in the gas hydrate accumulations of northern Alaska probably exceeds the volume of known conventional gas resources on the North Slope. Researchers have long speculated that gas hydrates could eventually be a com...
متن کاملBattelle Pacific Northwest Division Gas Hydrates Assessment Assessment of Current Technologies for Producing Natural Accumulations of Gas Hydrate
Vast quantities of natural gas are held in hydrate form in geologic reservoirs in sub-oceanic sediments and arctic permafrost zones (KVENVOLDEN, 1988; SLOAN, 1998), where conditions of high pressure and low temperature are within the hydrate stability region. In 1995, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a study to assess the quantity of natural gas hydrate resources in the United States...
متن کاملPalynological study of Lake Kotokel’ bottom sediments (Lake Baikal region)
Pollen and AMSC analyses of bottom sediments from the upper nine meters of the Lake Kotokel’ section were carried out. The regional climate and landscape dynamics during the Late Glacial and Holocene has been reconstructed with an average time resolution of ~120 years. It is shown that the climatic conditions in the Kotokel’ basin during Termination I (~15.5–11 ka) were characterized by short d...
متن کاملEffects of Impermeable Boundaries on Gas Production from Hydrate Accumulations in the Shenhu Area of the South China Sea
Based on currently available data from site measurements and the preliminary estimates of the gas production potential from the hydrate accumulations at the SH7 site in the Shenhu Area using the depressurization method with a single horizontal well placed in the middle of the Hydrate-Bearing Layer (HBL), the dependence of production performance on the permeabilities of the overburden (OB) and u...
