Abstract
Described embodiments include a system and a method. A described system includes a pipeline system. The pipeline system includes a transportation conduit containing a natural gas hydrate flowing from a first geographic location to a second geographic location. The pipeline system includes a cooling conduit running parallel to the transportation conduit, and having a heat-transfer surface thermally coupled with the flowing natural gas hydrate. The cooling conduit contains a heat-transfer fluid flowing between the first geographic location and the second geographic location. The flowing heat-transfer fluid has a target temperature range predicted to maintain a selected stability of the flowing natural gas hydrate.
