Numerical Simulation of Methane Production from Hydrates Induced by Different Depressurizing Approaches

Several studies have demonstrated that methane production from hydrate-bearing porous media by means of depressurization-induced dissociation can be a promising technique. In this study, a 2D axisymmetric model for simulating the gas production from hydrates by depressurization is developed to inves...
