Numerical Simulation of Gas Production Behavior Using Stepwise Depressurization with a Vertical Well in the Shenhu Sea Area Hydrate Reservoir of the South China Sea

Stepwise depressurization is an important depressurization strategy in the development of natural gas hydrates. This work numerically analyzes the effects of different depressurization gradients and constant pressure durations on gas and water production during stepwise depressurization extraction w...
