Energy Return on Energy Invested (EROI) for the Electrical Heating of Methane Hydrate Reservoirs

Energy Return on Energy Invested (EROI) for the Electrical Heating of Methane Hydrate Reservoirs

We model the low frequency electrical heating of submarine methane hydrate deposits located at depths between 1000 and 1500 m, and determine the energy return on energy invested (EROI) for this process. By means of the enthalpy method, we calculate the time-dependent heating of these deposits under...
