Technical purpose Methane hydrate, extracted via NGH mining, is mainly used as an alternative energy source to natural gas. Its extraction process, which has been demonstrated as economically viable and environmentally less impactful in comparison to conventional natural gas production, is suitable for regions with identified high-grade, shallow, and concentrated NGH deposits. The methane produced can be utilized for energy generation, heating, and as feedstock in various chemical processes.
