Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, to clarify the distribution of gas-hydrate and its formative environment of seabed methane, and to evaluate the potential as resource of gas-hydrate, the geologic surveys were conducted by some cruises covering a wide area of continental slope off Abashiri, the Okhotsk Sea. The conducted investigations are the seismic geologic survey, the bathymetry and the gas plume observation by an echo sounder, and core sampling of sea-bottom sediments. Moreover, to examine the soil properties of sea bottom sediments, some kinds of shipboard tests and physical properties tests were performed for the samples. A survey of the Okhotsk Sea offshore of Abashiri found more than 250 locations of gas plume from the seabed, and gas-hydrates were successfully sampled. The presence of BSR was confirmed in a stretch of sea where seismic survey was performed, thus indicating the widespread presence of gas hydrates offshore of Abashiri in the Okhotsk Sea.
