Gas hydrates have received considerable attention due to their important role in flow
assurance for the oil and gas industry, their extensive natural occurrence on Earth and …

Formerly, additives were only used to inhibit the formation of solid hydrates in pipelines and
maintain a safe and economic fuel transportation. Recently, their role has reversed in newly …

Experts have identified natural gas hydrates, which are found in the shallow seabed and
beneath permafrost regions, as an energy source (mostly methane) that is greener than …

CO 2 hydrate offers some substantial applications for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS).
While CO 2 hydrate chemistry and CO 2 capture are reviewed in part 1 of this review, CO 2 …

Gas hydrate formation is one of the most serious challenges for flow assurance in oil and
gas transportation pipelines as it causes severe safety, environmental, and economic …

Hydrate cold storage technology has been intensively researched in recent years and plays
an important role in the macro-control of energy. This paper reviews the diversity and …

There has been a dramatic increase in gas hydrate research over the last decade.
Interestingly, the research has not focussed on only the inhibition of gas hydrate formation …

Ionic liquids (ILs) are popular designer green chemicals with great potential for use in
diverse energy-related applications. Apart from the well-known low vapor pressure, the …

This work reports the thermodynamic effect of five amino acids on methane hydrate phase
boundary. The studied amino acids are glycine, alanine, proline, serine and arginine. To …

The oil industry is in search of the stable chemicals that can be applied in drilling,
stimulation, enhanced oil recovery at high temperature and high salinity reservoirs …
