    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for detecting the presence of gas hydrates and/or ice in a medium. The method comprises at least the following steps: measuring at least at one measurement point in said medium two characteristic values of Raman spectra corresponding to two distinct vibration modes of the OH bonds of water, and determining the ratio τ of said two characteristic values, determining the temperature T in said medium at said measurement point of said spectra, comparing ratio τ with a value τ0 corresponding to a predetermined threshold of formation of said crystals for said temperature T, and determining the presence or not of hydrate and/or ice crystals from said comparison.
