Abstract The article deals with methane hydrate synthesis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The search for optimal conditions for this synthesis in a cylindrical continuous stirred tank reactor was provided. The limit after which the increasing of pressure in the reactor does not make a significant contribution to an increase in the gas content of the product was experimentally detected. The analysis of the impact of cooling rate on intensity of the hydrate formation had been carried out. The mode of gas supply to the reactor, cooling rate and working pressure, ensuring the highest efficiency of the methane hydrate synthesis under the specified conditions, are found.
