Institute of Petroleum Engineering

Centre for Gas Hydrate Research Staff



The hydrate research group is active in a number of research areas, including:

  • Flow assurance; avoiding hydrate and wax problems in subsea transfer lines
  • Design and evaluation of Low Dosage Hydrate Inhibitors (LDHI)
  • Storage and transportation of oil and gas using hydrate technology
  • Hydrates in CO2 capture and storage
  • Gas hydrates in marine sediments
  • Positive applications of gas hydrates (e.g., hydrogen storage, fire fighting)

The results of studies to date have been well documented in more than 140 publications.
