The Dependence of Water Permeability in Quartz Sand on Gas Hydrate Saturation in the Pore Space: Permeability of gas hydrate-bearing sand
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"
DOI: 10.1002/2017jb014630
Abstract: Transport of fluids in gas hydrate bearing sediments is largely defined by the reduction of the permeability due to gas hydrate crystals in the pore space. Although the exact knowledge of the permeability behavior as… read more here.
