摘要
简介了2006年西太平洋地球物理会议中海洋天然气水合物研究的最新成果,主要集中在水合物勘探技术,新的水合物积聚区预测,水合物成因、性质分析,水合物评估手段、开发计划,水合物模拟实验研究等几个方面。在对以上几方面分类总结的基础上,提出了几点关于海洋天然气水合物未来研究方向的认识。
2006 Western Pacific Geophysics Meeting was held by American Geophysical Union, and there were thousands of scientists from all over the world attending to this meeting. According to the reports that were published during the meeting, we can see that gas hydrate is still one of the most attractive research areas in the world. Gas hydrate researches released on the meeting are summarized and can be divided into five aspects: hydrate exploration methods, characteristics of seafloor environment where hydrates exist, physical properties of gas hydrates, evaluation and exploitation plans and simulated experiments. In the exploration field, 3D seismic survey, magnetic features of sediments and geochemical methods are widely used. Seafloor investigations include researches on gas hydrate venting, geological structures of landslides in hydrate zone and sediment granulometry on hydrate ridge. There are many thermodynamic and kinetics researches on hydrates as well. Simulated experiments as a safe and economic method also make a great contribution to the hydrate researches, and some feasible methods on hydrates exploration and exploitation were tested by experiments. In the end, we predicted some potential areas of hydrates which may be the new hot spots in future.
