Position Details
Gas Hydrate reservoirs are the new source for the future needs of natural gas on a global scale. During dissociation and gas production, the reservoir compaction leads to a decrease in the porosity and permeability of the reservoir layer. The current project aims to better understand the compaction process using the cutting edge laboratory and simulation techniques such as digital rock technology, NMR, etc.
