Hydrate gas was found unintentionally when the blocking problems in the transportation pipelines of natural gas occurred. The cause of those problems was a solid material that is similar to ice and then finally known as hydrate. A capturing molecular gas by water molecular at low temperature and high pressure forms hydrate. Methane is the most common gas on natural hydrate. Methane is a flammable gas so hydrate that contains methane can be used for an alternative fuel. Unfortunately there is a problem in exploiting hydrate because hydrate is so sensitive to the change of both pressure and temperature. Because of that, experiment is needed to measure and to investigate it properties.<p>There are three things that represent hydrate properties i.e., the phase equilibrium, kinetic property and thermal property. Even though, the basic principles are the same, each property ran its own measurement method. Furthermore, the accurate and complete information about hydrate, beginning from the formation until the decomposition including the factors that effect formation and decomposition process are known by investigation and discussion about three properties measurement methods. <br />
