Hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) is a process in which large volumes of water, sand and chemicals are injected at high pressures to extract oil and natural gas from underground rock formations. The process creates fractures in formations such as shale rock, allowing natural gas or oil to escape into the well and be recovered.

When methane hydrates are “melted,” or exposed to pressure and temperature conditions outside those where the formations are stable, the solid crystalline lattice turns to liquid water, and the enclosed methane molecules are released as gas.

Methane produced by serpentinization can escape through cracks and faults, and end up at the ocean floor. In other known settings the abiotic methane escapes into the ocean, where it potentially influences ocean chemistry. This is the case at Knipovich Ridge, where sediments cap the ocean crust at water depths up to 2000 meters.

These findings do change our view of the vulnerability of the large sub-sea permafrost carbon reservoir on the ESAS; the permafrost “lid” is clearly perforated, and sedimentary CH 4 is escaping to the atmosphere.

A second series of modifications enhances the secretion process, by genetically deleting or modifying two key layers of the cellular envelop—the S and peptidoglycan layers—allowing fatty acids to more easily escape outside the cell, where their low water solubility causes them to precipitate out of solution, forming a whitish residue on the surface.

Supplies of oxygen, nutrients, and trace metals required by methane-eating microbes would dwindle year-by-year as more methane enters the water. In these cases, hungry ocean-dwelling microbes quickly oxidize most of the methane before it escapes into the atmosphere. This research was supported in part by the DOE Office of Science.
