- •
Effect of PEG on methane hydrate kinetics has been investigated.
- •
High molecular weight PEG found to be a good kinetic inhibitor.
- •
Low molecular weight PEG found to be a good thermodynamic inhibitor.
- •
Inhibition effect found to increases with decrease in the concentration of PEG.
- •
PEG aids to develop effective hydrate inhibitive water-based drilling fluid system.
