Purpose
Study gas hydrates in a natural reservoir.
Information to be Derived
Physical property measurements;Grain-size analyses;Other
USGS/commercial companies/academic institutions are responsible for
producing:Well-log analyses;Pore-water analyses;Gas geochemistry
analyses;
Summary
Actual travel dates: 28Jan2007 to 16Feb2007 for WHSC
personnel; Field work was preceded by safety training in Anchorage;
Assortment of activities related to acquisition of natural sediment
samples with and without gas hydrate in the pore space; Well logs;
Sediment and pore-content analyses in the field and home-based
laboratories including: physical properties, gas and pore-water
geochemistry.
