Estimation and measurement of permeability inside methane hydrate mimicking porous media
The objective of this study is to mimic methane hydrate cores at atmospheric pressure conditions with the same permeability as oceanic methane hydrate cores. This became possible by freezing a solution of water, ethanol, and sodium bicarbonate in Toyoura sand at -10°C. First, partial freeze was meas...
