Abstract

A natural gas hydrate solid-state fluidization mining method and system under an underbalanced positive circulation condition, used for performing solid-state fluidization mining on a non-rock-forming weak-cementation natural gas hydrate layer in the ocean. Equipment includes a ground equipment system and an underwater equipment system. The construction procedure has an earlier-stage construction process, underbalanced hydrate solid-state fluidization mining construction process and silt backfilling process. Natural gas hydrates in the seafloor are mined through an underbalanced positive circulation method.
