| Summary: | To characterize a gas hydrate reservoir, we must relate the elastic properties of the sediment to the volume of gas hydrate and the host-rock properties and conditions, such as mineralogy, porosity, pressure, and temperature. One way of achieving this goal is through rock physics effective-medium modeling and utilizing this modeling to account for the effects of scale and geometry, reservoir properties and conditions, and the properties and conditions of the background for quantitative seismic interpretation. 1.2. Technologies/Tools/Approaches/Data Being Used Seismic-driven characterization of methane hydrate reservoirs has a short but saturated history. It has been driven by the availability of public funds provided by the |
