Abstract

Methane hydrate has become one promising energy resource for humankind. In this study, recent worldwide onshore/offshore drilling and production activities are analyzed. The most recent reports from sites such as Japan (2013, 2017) and China (2017) show that the road toward comprehensive utilization of methane hydrate is underway. Though the production methods (depressurization, thermal stimulation, CO2 replacement) diverges in safety and efficiency, potential has been confirmed for future large-scale utilization. World hydrate policy is dependent on the social-economic status and environmental concerns in major countries. It is urged that international regulations on commercial explorations to be settled for methane hydrate projects.
