Significantly, gas hydrates can even be formed in the absence of a liquid phase.

Mallik - An exploration site that encompasses fields of natural gas hydrates.

Other research suggest that the gas hydrates are not contributing to the current production.

Natural gas hydrates have long been known to exist in sediments beneath the Gulf of Mexico.

Krason, 1994, estimated that there are 0.42 to 4.2x10 cubic meters of methane within the gas hydrates.

The compound is sold commercially as a frozen gas hydrate.

The gas hydrate was embedded in an asphalt matrix.

However, in general, while the gas hydrate is forming, the cavity where the hydrocarbon usually resides.

Destabilization of gas hydrates has contributed to global warming in the past and will likely do so in the future.

The gas hydrates may then flow upward with drilling mud or other discharged fluids.
