Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Natural gas hydrate has attracted wide attention of global scientists due to its huge resource potential. In the recent decades, the investigation and research of natural gas hydrate has greatly advanced in natural gas hydrate formation, geological characteristics, resource potential assessment, exploration and production technology. This special issue aims to report the latest research results on these topics, stimulate rapid and influential public dissemination, and support the development of the natural gas hydrate field.
High quality research and novel techniques related to the following topics are encouraged for publication:
- Marine gas hydrate
- Gas hydrate formation
- Geological characterization
- Physical properties
- Resource potential assessment
- Case studies
- Exploration & production technology
- Effects on environment
