GOMEZ, J. L; SPATH, F. G. E  y  PIANELLI, L. Seismic evidence of gas hydrates and their quantification as a potential economic resource in the Argentine sea, Malvinas Basin. Geoacta [online]. 2016, vol.41, n.1, pp.35-49. ISSN 1852-7744.

We present a workflow for gas hydrate detection and quantification that has been applied on seismic data of the Argentinean offshore of Malvinas Basin. The workflow consists in three main stages: gas hydrate detection, validation and characterization of the gas hydrate and finally, volume estimation. Evidence of an important methane gas hydrate concentration lying below the Argentinean seabed is gathered.

Palabras clave : Gas hydrates; Seismic; Argentina.
