Abstract

Hydrates in nature generally occur in unconsolidated sediments in shallow seabed of deep water and in rock fissures or pores in land permafrost. The decomposition of hydrate will lead to changes in formation cementation strength, porosity and geological structure, which will lead to geological hazards and seriously threaten the safe exploitation of hydrate resources. On the basis of a large number of current researches for the methods of the hydrate sample preparation and tri-axial mechanical testing and the constitutive models, this paper systematically analyzed the main factors that affect the mechanical properties of natural gas hydrate-bearing sediments and introduced the development trend of the constitutive models, and combed out the consensus and the existing problems, and puts forward some suggestions. This paper also suggested the future work of the mechanical strength test of hydrate sediments, the development of constitutive model and the study of reservoir stability and offered the reference for the research of natural gas hydrates in our country.

Key words： gas hydrate; sediment; mechanical properties; constitutive model
