U.S. Geological Survey Gas Hydrates Project. Gas hydrate is an ice-like crystalline form of water and low molecular weight gas (e.g., methane, ethane, carbon dioxide).On Earth, gas hydrates occur naturally in some marine sediments and within and beneath permafrost. Gas hydrates have also been inferred on other planets or their moons.ethane molecules can fit within both the small and large sites in the Structure I lattice, and Structure I methane hydrate is indeed the most common type found in nature. Thus, âgas hydrateâ and âmethane hydrateâ are often used interchangeably by researchers.
Once a likely deposit of natural gas is located, the energy company then drills down to reach it. Of course, getting gas out of the Earth isnât easy. A natural gas well isnât at all like a water well (where you drill a hole in the ground and water fills it).Natural gas tends to be contained within the underground rock itself. The rock must be broken to release the gas. And if itâs brought out the wrong way, it can contaminate the groundwater supply surrounding it.f course, getting gas out of the Earth isnât easy.
