Coring wells (CW1 and CW2) map at the AT1 site at the Eastern Nankai Trough [Reprinted from Yamamoto et al. 2019, Fire in the ice (Newsletters of National Energy Technology Laboratory of U.S. Department of Energy.)] The wells, named P, P2, and P3 for the gas production tests carried out in 2013 and 2017, are located on the Northwest slope of the Daini–Atsumi Knoll. The sand-dominant turbidite sequences contain gas hydrate, which are described as pore-filling and/or load-bearing type morphology
