The increase of gas production from conventional gas reservoirs which has led to the development of drilling, logging and coring technology, has moved many countries and scientists to focus on the gas hydrate explorations. Resultantly, many successful gas hydrate wells have recently been drilled in the world, which are mainly on the marine environment. Almost one decade ago, it was considered that drilling in gas hydrate reservoirs was quite risky. However, recent drilling expeditions in marine environment show that producing gas from gas hydrate reservoirs is not risky and has led oil and gas companies are encouraged to develop these kinds of drillings. These successful drillings reveal that production from gas hydrate reservoirs does not dissociate the reservoir immediately and consequently many considered theoretical problems of drilling in these reservoirs will not happen. It is obvious that special cares should be taken to maintain gas hydrate reservoirs as stable as possible, with selecting the right drilling fluid and cement composition. This paper presents a comprehensive view on the results of drilling activities in gas hydrate reservoirs.
