METHANE HYDRATE RESOURCE ASSESSMENT OF THE OUTER CONTINENTAL SHELF: IN-PLACE GULF OF MEXICO RESULTS Frye, Matthew; Grace, John; Hunt, Jesse; Kaufman, Gordon; Schuenemeyer, John; Shedd, William
Abstract
The U.S. Minerals Management Service has completed a preliminary assessment of in-place gas hydrate resources in the Gulf of Mexico. A probabilistic model built on a mass balance approach to assessment provides a high degree of spatial resolution and supports detailed mapping. The model produces a Monte Carlo distribution of in-place resources that ranges from 314 trillion to 974 trillion cubic meters (TCM) with a mean value of 607 TCM. Additional work on development of a technically recoverable model component is under way.
