ANALYSES IN SUPPORT OF FIELD STUDIES<br />

LBNL staff were involved in the design of the first field test of <strong>gas</strong> production from <strong>hydrate</strong>s,<br />

conducted at the Mallik site, Mackenzie Delta, Northwest Territories, Canada, in 2002<br />

(Moridis et al., 2004). Analysis of the field data and long-term predictions of <strong>gas</strong> production<br />

from the Mallik site can be found in Moridis et al. (2005d).<br />

measurements and parameters obtained by history matching of the lab data.<br />

attenuation curves (related to density), and cross-sectional scan of the evolving sample<br />

density during water flooding (data used to extract the relative permeability curves).<br />
