Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With growing energy demands and the gradual depletion of traditional energy sources, deep-sea natural gas hydrates have become a research area of great concern. In recent decades, research on deep-sea natural gas hydrates has made great progress in terms of formation mechanism, distribution, exploration technology, and drilling technology. This Special Issue aims to consolidate the latest advancements in this field. Authors are encouraged to present cutting-edge research that addresses current challenges in deep-sea natural gas hydrate exploration and drilling. We are looking for original research articles, reviews, and technical notes that contribute to the discourse on the advancement of exploration and drilling technologies used for deep-sea natural gas hydrates.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs).
