Abstract :The dependence of industry on natural gas has increased a lot last decades so the transportation of natural gas has become one of the most important issue in natural gas industry. Although the formation of natural gas hydrate is a problem in natural gas pipelines, the transportation of natural gas as natural gas hydrates by ships or trucks is an advantage. Therefore, in this study, first, the studies related to the inhibition of natural gas hydrate in pipelines are reviewed because there are many gas pipeline projects so natural gas hydrate inhibition is an important issue in natural gas industry. Then, the studies related to the transportation of natural gas as natural gas hydrates are reviewed in this study because this is a new subject and for the future, if research and development in this transportation method could be done successfully, this method might be better alternative compared to LNG and CNG natural gas transportation methods.
