The article explores the influence a storage time on the samples of pure ice powder and mod-ified ice powder with polyvinylpyrrolidone on process formation and growth of the gas hydrate by used P-V-T measurements. It has been established that increased storage time of the pure ice powder leads to a decrease the rate of growth of gas hydrate. Fresh modified ice powder has induction time of hydrate formation which increased in a polyvinylpyrrolidone concentration. At long-term storage of modified ice powder with a polyvinylpyrrolidone concentration less 0,3 % the induction time don’t registrate and growth rate of gas hydrate likes zero. In the samples of modified ice powder with a polyvinylpyrrolidone concentration more 0,75 % after 10 days a storage were retained growth rate of gas hydrate likes fresh modified ice powder. There is no induction effect.
