メタンハイドレートはメタンと水が結晶化した氷状の物質で「燃える氷」とも呼ばれ、日本の周辺海域の海底にも広く存在していて、次世代のエネルギー資源として期待されています
Methane hydrate is an ice-like substance that is crystallized from methane and water, and is also known as ”burning ice.”It is widely found on the ocean floor in the seas surrounding Japan, and is expected to be a next-generation energy resource.

エネルギー・金属鉱物資源機構は今回、取得したデータを解析し、日本の周辺海域で行う産出試験や、その後の商業化に向けた取り組みに生かしていくとしています
The Japan Energy and Metals and Minerals Japan Agency plans to analyze the data acquired this time and utilize it in production tests to be conducted in sea areas surrounding Japan and subsequent efforts toward commercialization.
