From Exploration to Production: A Systematic Review of Natural Gas Hydrate Technologies.
Review in ACS omega, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
As a strategic energy source with huge potential, the commercial development of natural gas hydrate (NGH) is a complex issue concerning the future energy landscape and maritime security. This article aims to systematically sort out the research progress of the entire chain from resource exploration to development and trial production in this field, and dialectically analyze the dual attributes of coexisting energy potential and engineering risks. This article systematically reviews the exploration technology system centered on geophysics, geochemistry, and drilling, as well as the evolution of resource evaluation methods. Furthermore, the support of basic research, such as the hydrate accumulation mechanism and simulation experiments for engineering practice, was explored. By analyzing global trial production cases, the advantages and disadvantages of different mining methods were compared, and core safety challenges, such as geological instability and methane leakage, were distilled. This article ultimately points out that the current development of NGH still faces technical challenges, and the future development will achieve a development system of "multi-technology-driven + multi-objective coordination + intelligent self-adaptation." This article aims to provide a systematic reference framework for the scientific research and commercialization strategy of NGH.
