Micromechanical Investigation of Stress Relaxation in Gas Hydrate-Bearing Sediments Due to Sand Production

Past experience of gas production from methane-hydrate-bearing sediments indicates that sand migration is a major factor restricting the production of gas from methane-hydrate reservoirs. One important geotechnical aspect of sand migration is the influence of grain detachment on the existing stresse...
