For more than 25 years, the U.S. Geological Survey Gas Hydrates Project has compiled and maintained an internal database of locations where the existence of gas hydrate has been confirmed or inferred in research studies. The existence of gas hydrate was considered confirmed when gas hydrate was recovered by researchers or videotaped from a vehicle (such as a submersible or remotely operated vehicle) near the sea floor. The existence of gas hydrate was considered inferred when seismic data, borehole logs, or certain geochemical characteristics match anomalies known to characterize gas hydrate. This data release provides a text description of the region, geographic coordinates, and the citation for the published reference...

This collection contains materials to support ongoing USGS research and resource assessments of gas hydrate reservoir systems in the Alaska North Slope. The collection contains outcrop field samples from the Sagwon and Franklin Buffs KT sections collected during the 1992 and 1994 field season as well as geophysical seismic shot hole drill cuttings collected in support of the 1977 ANWR 2D seismic survey. The materials are stored in cardboard boxes on one wood pallet.
