Gas hydrate is an ice-like crystalline form of water and low molecular weight gas (e.g., methane, ethane, carbon dioxide).On Earth, gas hydrates occur naturally in some marine sediments and within and beneath permafrost.Gas hydrates have also been inferred on other planets or their moons.t the molecular level, gas hydrate consists of gas molecules surrounded by cages of water molecules. Each water cage encloses a space of a particular size, and only a gas molecule small enough to fit within this site can be hosted in that specific hydrate structure.
