Abstract
Energy is one of the main drivers for the sustainable development of any country like India. More than 80% of global energy requirements including India are met by fossil fuels. However, India produces only 30% of her energy requirements indigenously, and spends a huge amount of money in importing the remaining. Moreover, discovery of major oil/gas fields has remained almost stagnant during the last few decades. The rising demand for carbon emission-free energy and dwindling trend of conventional fossil fuels necessitates looking for an alternate source of energy. Gas hydrates, crystalline form of methane (99.9%) and water, are envisaged to provide one of the best feasible solutions for the future generations because of their huge potential and natural occurrences. The successful production tests in Mckenzie delta of Canada in 2008, in Alaska of USA in 2012, and in Nankai Trough off Japan in 2013 have provided an impetus to the scientific and technological community for the delineation & assessment of gas hydrates, followed by development of production technology.
