Lowest Cost Energy: Clean Under-Utilized
Methane 2: Clathrate location & extraction
:
• General mainstream consensus available volume at least exceeds entire
conventional hydrocarbon resources(some "economically incorrect science" using
nations such as China/Russia projects order[s] of magnitude higher). Highly
disruptive information as this can undermine profitable "peak oil" appeal & cause
overflooding of energy market if extracted in mass. Although current test overall
production cost is higher than Natural Gas from deep ocean, land base extraction
can be already on par or lower due to shallowness, & this will likely easily go lowest
cost in high fuel cost regions as full operation occurs.
• Most of gas hydrate or a portion of ocean bottom hydrate can use conventional
drilling & extraction related methods, No need for economically & environmentally
expensive fracking, Shallower depth than many natural gas wells: depth is 100m+
range in Arctic, 500m+ in other regions etc, land or water.
• But so far indication is drilling might need to be moved to nearby area quicker
than regular gas wells if based on existing technology - if same tech is used higher
cost? Studying the past track record shows, if exploiting this resource is important
to mainstream group they would usually come up with "revolutionary" new
technology in few years (eg fracking for Shale oil or deep well developing methods
etc.).
