Experimental Research on the Mechanical Properties of Methane Hydrate-Ice Mixtures

The mechanical properties of methane hydrate are important to the stability of borehole and methane extraction from a methane hydrate reservoir. In this study, a series of triaxial compression tests were carried out on laboratory-formed methane hydrate-ice mixtures with various methane hydrate conte...
