Gas Hydrate Formation Systems

Gas hydrates are crystalline compounds where gas molecules, typically methane, ethane, or carbon dioxide, are trapped within a lattice of water molecules under high-pressure and low-temperature conditions. These hydrates, commonly found in marine sediments and permafrost regions, pose both challenges and opportunities in energy and environmental sectors e.g. In the oil and gas industry, gas hydrates can form blockages in pipelines, but they also represent a potential future energy source due to the large amounts of methane stored in hydrate deposits. Research into their formation, dissociation, and exploitation is ongoing but requires carefully designed equipment for very high pressures. Our Gas Hydrate systems are designed to support such applications.
