Natural Gas Hydrates in Flow Assurance provides an expert overview of the practice and theory in natural gas hydrates, with applications primarily in flow assurance. Compact and easy to use, the book provides readers with a wealth of materials which include the key lessons learned in the industry over the last 20 years. Packed with field case studies, the book is designed to provide hands-on training and practice in calculating hydrate phase equilibria and plug dissociation. In addition, readers receive executable programs to calculate hydrate thermodynamics. This title features: case studies of hydrates in flow assurance; the key concepts underlying the practical applications; and, an overview of the state of the art flow assurance industrial developments. Natural gas hydrates are non-stoichiometric, solid substances that consist of a low amount of gas molecules captured in a mesh cage system made up of water molecules.
