Overview of the Monitoring Program in the Alaska North Slope Extended-Duration Gas Production Test from Gas Hydrate

Abstract As a part of an extended-duration gas production test conducted under the JOGMEC-DOE-USGS Collaborative Gas Hydrate R&D Project in Alaska, one of the main objectives was to understand the behavior of gas hydrate formation and the production system during long-term depres...

Operational Overview of the JOGMEC-DOE-USGS Gas Production Test from Gas Hydrate on the Alaska North Slope

Abstract To understand the long-term production behavior of gas hydrate, an extended-duration gas production test was conducted under the JOGMEC-DOE-USGS Collaborative Gas Hydrate R&D Project in Alaska. The production test began in September 2023 using an electric submersible pum...

Geological & Petrophysical Findings from Production Test Wells of Gas Hydrate Reservoirs at the Kuparuk State 7–11–12 Site in the Prudhoe Bay Unit on the Alaska North Slope

Abstract As part of a long-term production test targeting gas hydrate reservoirs at the Kuparuk State 7–11–12 site in the Prudhoe Bay Unit on the Alaska North Slope, two production wells (PTW-1 and PTW-2) and one monitoring well (GDW) were drilled in 2023. This study advances res...
