No one to date has outlined an economic and safe method for sustained recovery of methane from the newly discovered low-grade oceanic hydrate and associated gas deposits. The potential rewards of unlocking the methane hydrate energy bank are potentially very great. The prize is possibly centuries of energy independence for some industrial states including the United States and Japan, and developing countries such as India, which appear to have considerable deposits of methane hydrate immediately adjacent to their landmasses. A number of nations, including the United States, have established, or are considering establishing, national hydrate research programs.
