Gas migration for terrestrial gas hydrates in the Juhugeng mining area of Muli basin, Qilian Mountains, Northwest China

The Juhugeng mining area in the Qilian Mountains is the only district of China where terrestrial gas hydrate has been found. This paper aimed at studying the gas migration for gas hydrates based on fluid inclusion and apatite fission track experiments with samples being collected in both the hanging wall (Triassic strata, non-hydrocarbon source rocks) and footwall (Jurassic strata, hydrocarbon source rocks) of drilling cores. Fluid inclusions...
