GOM2 principal investigators, Peter B. Flemings and Ann E. Cook showcased resent research at the 2025 Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston, Texas, highlighting advancements in methane hydrate exploration and offshore energy systems. Peter B. Flemings presented discussed the visco-plastic nature of hydrate-bearing sediments (http://doi.org/10.4043/35944-MS). Ann E. Cook presented a comparison of the two high… Continue Reading GOM2 Leadership in Advancing Methane Hydrate Science and Technology
