New in situ measurements of the viscosity of gas clathrate hydrate slurries formed from model water-in-oil emulsions

In situ rheological measurements for clathrate hydrate slurries were performed using a high pressure rheometer to determine the effect of hydrate particles on the viscosity and transportability of these slurries. These measurements were conducted using a well-characterized model water-in-oil emulsio...
