A study focused on potential hydrate formation in the pipe that connects the separator to the planned Ormen Lange subsea compressor. Subsea gas compression is a new technology, and this article ...

Scientists from the Institute of Geology and Oil and Gas Technologies of Kazan Federal University (IGiNGT KFU), together with Chinese colleagues, investigated the mechanism of accelerated formation of ...

Because inhibitors are important in reducing formation of hydrates in gas streams, we performed a study to investigate and evaluate the accuracy of available tools that predict hydrate formation ...

Researchers are studying the role that methane nanobubbles might play in the formation and dissociation of natural gas hydrates, a currently untapped source of natural gas and a chief energy source in ...

Researchers are using a novel means of studying how methane and water form methane hydrate that allows them to examine discrete steps in the process faster and more efficiently. Researchers at the NYU ...

BROOKLYN, New York - Researchers at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering are using a novel means of studying how methane and water form methane hydrate that allows them to examine discrete steps in ...

Patches of desiccated, stiff gas-hydrate-hosting sediments and shallow bedrock beneath the Håkjerringdjupet ice stream would have locally enhanced basal friction, thereby providing resistance to the ...

Head of the Department of Petroleum Engineering Mikhail Varfolomeev explains, "Gas hydrates are solid crystalline substances which look like ice and consist of gas and water molecules. Gas molecules ...

Researchers use a novel microreactor to study the formation of methane hydrate, an icy prison for key greenhouse gas. Researchers at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering are using a novel means of ...

After completing the first expedition of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program, scientists onboard the drillship JOIDES Resolution retrieved data and samples that have been stored beneath the seafloor ...

“We have shown that the inhibitors based on polyurethanes developed at Kazan Federal University, despite their properties to form micelles and behave like surfactants, inhibit hydrate formation – this ...

Everyone’s so excited about Japan’s successful extraction of natural gas from methane hydrates trapped in crystalized formation under the sea floor. The headlines are certainly promising, and we’ve ...
