Depleted methane hydrate (MH) reservoirs are potential sites for CO2storage. Hydrate formation during the CO2flow process in a dissociated MH sample was simulated to clarify the formation characteristics of CO2hydrates and their effect on CO2storage. Experiments included MH formation and dissociation, CO2injection, water‐injection and CO2hydrate dissociation, and liquid‐water distribution as monitored by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It was observed that the initial water saturation determined the hydrate saturation in the artificial sediment, and the depressurization range was the main factor influencing MH dissociation for the excess gas sample. Pressure is the key factor influencing hydrate formation during CO2flow. An increase of the CO2flow rate led to a decrease of both hydrate saturation and conversion of the injected CO2. The cumulative amount of injected water is not the key factor controlling CO2hydrate formation, but it does determine the residual water saturation.
