N2 - Deposition of hydrate solids is one of important parts to understand the hydrate plugging mechanism in the flowlines. In this study, hydrate segregation and deposition of three different gas-dominated systems, which are water only, decane as a condensate with water, and poly-vinyl caprolactam as a kinetic inhibition polymer included systems, was investigated with measuring the torque of stirring liquid and hydrate phases. The torque-hydrate conversion curves provided some information to classify the hydrate formation process into several specific regions and to characterize each region. The present work suggests that measuring torque is one of useful laboratory scale measurements to investigate the hydrate deposition mechanism and the block properties.
