Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of geological exploration, and discloses a method for identifying natural gas hydrates by utilizing the ratio of compressional and transverse wave impedance increments. Background technique
[0002] Natural gas hydrate is an alternative energy source for oil and coal, and has attracted much attention from governments and academia, as well as industry. Gas hydrates mainly occur in the deep seabed and below the permafrost. Hydrate is a white solid substance produced by the chemical reaction of methane gas and water under low temperature and high pressure conditions. Hydrate occurs in the sandstone pore space. The main technologies for detecting hydrates are: seismic exploration technology, drilling technology, geochemical detection technology, seabed camera and sampling technology. Among them, seismic exploration is the most effective technique for detecting hydrates. At present, seismic exploration technology mainl...
