A research team led by The University of Texas at Austin has been awarded approximately $58 million to analyze methane hydrate deposits under the Gulf of Mexico. This could be analogous to gas or shale oil 20 or 30 years ago. None of us thought we were going to produce any hydrocarbons out of shales then. —Peter Flemings.
