Hydrate Formation is a formation that occurs due to the reaction of water with hydrocarbons present in the reservoirs. These hydrocarbons include methane, ethane, propane or hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. Hydrates are solid shaped particles which can be compared to ice and can cause problems in the well operations. These hydrates are solids that are formed when natural gas and water combine at low temperature and high pressure. This may happen in both oil and gas wells.
