Ground movements associated with gas hydrate production. Progress report, January 1--March 31, 1993
The grantee will evaluate the influence of hydrate production on ground subsidence near the wellbore and the surface. The objective of this research will be achieved by using computer simulations of what is expected in a hydrate reservoir during the production stage as reported by hydrate production...
