Natural gas-hydrates—crystalline compounds of gas molecules—are found in permafrost and marine sediments. While these gas hydrates can be used as alternative energy resources, they also pose a danger ...

The research used a computer model of gas bubbles flowing through hydrate deposits, a common phenomenon which according to existing models, should not be possible based on physics. The new model helps ...

Gas hydrates are great alternative energy sources but they could also harm us and the environment, note geologists from the University of the Philippines. Much like carbonated drinks are water infused ...

An international research team has recorded the deepest cold seeps ever documented in the Arctic, finding active gas hydrate ...

A team of researchers from China and Singapore has proposed an innovative method for the commercial exploitation of natural gas hydrates (NGHs) from offshore reservoirs, leveraging geothermal energy ...

A study has mapped several sites in Europe containing gas hydrate - a relatively clean fuel which could help bridge the gap between fossil fuels and renewables. A study led by the University of ...

The discovery of these gas hydrate mounds, packed with worms, clams, snails, and crustaceans, shows that even at crushing pressures and near-freezing temperatures, the seafloor can host thriving ...

ROV image of a partially collapsed gas hydrate mound in the Molloy Deep (Freya mounds), where exposed gas hydrates are visible beneath sediment cover. The mound hosts dense fields of frenulate worms ...
