Abstract Experimental results of the formation of methane hydrate in dependence of temperature and pressure in unsaturated solutions of NaCl in water will be presented in a temperature range from 261.85 to 285.98 K and pressure up to 11.0 MPa. Furthermore the four‐phase equilibrium NaCl·2H 2 O s  CH 4 · n H 2 O s LG has been calculated from the experimental results. Also the heats of transformation of several other equilibria in the ternary system CH 4 H 2 ONaCl are obtained.
