Characterization of methane hydrate extraction influenced by hydraulic fractures using a coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical-chemical model
The low permeability of the methane hydrate-bearing sediment limits the methane gas extraction. To enhance methane hydrate extraction, hydraulic fracturing can be a promising approach to improve the hydrate reservoir permeability by creating a fracture network in the reservoir. In this study, a coup...
