由印度政府、日本政府和美國科學家組成的聯合勘探小組在印度洋發現了大規?？砷_發天然氣水合物儲集層。這一國際科學家小組由印度石油天然氣公司（ONGC）代表印度石油和天然氣部牽頭成立，聯合美國地質調查所（USGS）、日本公司Japanese Drilling Company和日本海洋科學技術中心（JAMSTEC）進行能源勘探。
美國地質調查所稱：在該機構幫助下，印度政府已在孟加拉灣區域發現了大規模、高度密集的天然氣水合物儲層。這是在印度洋海域首次發現此類可開采能源。該機構解釋稱：天然氣水合物是一種自然形成的、天然氣和水的冰狀混合物，多在世界各大洋和極地地區出現。全世界氣體水合物聚集層中的天然氣含量預計能大大超過所有傳統氣體資源的總和。
來自印度、日本和美國的科學家在印度沿海進行了海洋鉆探、傳統沉積巖取心、高壓取心、底部測井和數據分析等一系列活動，以對地質產狀、區域環境和天然氣水合物儲層的特征做出準確評估。

A research partnership between the Government of India, the Government of Japan, and U.S. scientists has resulted in a discovery of ‘large deposits of potentially producible gas hydrate’ in the Indian Ocean. The international team of scientists was led by the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) of India on behalf of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas India, in cooperation with the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the Japanese Drilling Company, and the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC).
The USGS said that it has assisted the Government of India in the discovery of large, highly enriched accumulations of natural gas hydrate in the Bay of Bengal, the first discovery of its kind in the Indian Ocean that has the potential to be producible. The agency explained that natural gas hydrates are a naturally occurring, ice-like combination of natural gas and water found in the world’s oceans and polar regions. The amount of gas within the world’s gas hydrate accumulations is estimated to greatly exceed the volume of all known conventional gas resources.
The scientists from India, Japan, and the United States conducted ocean drilling, conventional sediment coring, pressure coring, downhole logging and analytical activities to assess the geologic occurrence, regional context and characteristics of gas hydrate deposits in the offshore of India.
