Multilateral well technique is a promising approach to enhance gas recovery, especially in
heterogeneous hydrate reservoirs with underlying free gas. However, little is known about …

The multilateral well exploitation technique is a technical approach to the efficient
exploitation of natural gas hydrate that deserves to be explored. In this paper, a numerical …

Natural gas hydrate is prevalent in ultralow-permeability fine-grained sediments with
substantial reserves. However, effective and safe gas production from fine-grained hydrate …

A spiral multilateral well network is a promising production method to enhance long-term
gas recovery from prevalent fine-grained hydrate reservoirs. However, practical application …

The depressurization method and its modified scheme may be the best way to efficiently
recover marine natural gas hydrate (NGH) from the reservoir. However, the capacity of …

Current gas hydrate production test indicates that it is difficult to reach the commercial level
for low permeability hydrate-bearing formation by depressurization method. Hydraulic …

About 90% of the world's natural gas hydrates (NGH) exist in deep-sea formations, a new
energy source with great potential for exploitation. There is distance from the threshold of …

Abstract In 2019–2020, the second natural gas hydrate field trial was successfully performed
in the Shenhu Area of the South China Sea by using a horizontal well, however, the long …

Recent field tests to recover natural gas from marine gas hydrate reservoirs in Japan and
China have exhibited worldwide attention to this strategic energy form; significant …

Nature gas hydrate is a new kind of clean and potential resources. Depressurization is
regarded as the most effective and promising hydrate production technology. One of the key …
