  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;Geomechanical stability of marine hydrate reservoirs during gas production by depressurization is the focus of this study. The reservoir considered here consists of thin hydrate rich sandy layers interbedded with mud layers. Because of the input parameter uncertainties involved, it is prudent from a geomechanical perspective to estimate the likely bounds of potential responses. A decoupled approach is presented herein for which the pressure and hydrate saturation in the sediments during gas production are obtained from multiphase flow computation, but could also be synthesized from various scenarios. This procedure is illustrated with sample problems.&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
