The Standard for Determining Permeability of Methane Hydrate-Bearing Sediments, designated as T/CAOE 51-2023 and published on March 31, 2023, provides a detailed methodology for assessing the permeability characteristics of sediments that contain methane hydrates. This standard aims to address critical needs in environmental science and energy exploration by offering precise protocols for laboratory testing. The procedures outlined are designed to ensure accurate measurement of fluid flow through these unique sedimentary formations under various pressure and temperature conditions, essential parameters in understanding methane hydrate stability zones and reservoir productivity.
The standard includes comprehensive guidelines on sample preparation, instrumentation calibration, data collection techniques, and analysis methods specific to the complex nature of methane hydrate-bearing sediments. It is intended for use by researchers, engineers, and technical personnel involved in the study or development of technologies related to methane hydrates, contributing significantly to advancements in energy resource evaluation and environmental impact assessments.
