Abstract
Recent advances in basin and petroleum system modelling have allowed for the investigation of gas hydrate systems, including modelling of the generation, migration, and accumulation of biogenic and thermogenic gas within gas hydrate deposits. In this brief survey paper, the treatment of sediment organic properties (organic content and richness, expressed as total organic carbon and the hydrogen index) within previously published basin and petroleum system models of marine gas hydrate systems is reviewed. Eight studies (published between 2015 and 2020) are described and discussed. This review contributes to the state of knowledge in the field by reviewing existing modelling studies of gas hydrates and concludes with brief takeaways on important considerations and knowledge gaps in the state of basin and hydrocarbon system modelling of gas hydrate systems.
