✅ Simply hydrate is a compound, typically a crystalline one, in which water molecules are chemically bound to another compound or element.

✅ When gas molecules are trapped in a lattice of water molecules at temperatures above 0°C and pressures above one atmosphere, they can form a sta­ble solid. These solids are gas hydrates. Most gas hydrates are formed from methane (CH4). Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon and is the primary component of NG that we burn for energy.

✅ Hydrate formations in pipelines are dangerous and costly it leads to:-
1️⃣ slow down the flow of oil and gas through a pipeline.
2️⃣ block pipelines altogether. That means a production slow down
3️⃣ cause pressure build-ups that can end in fire and explosions.
