Key experimental technologies and their development directions for the exploration and production of deep coalbed methane by Xia YAN, Fengyin XU, Xianyue XIONG, Feng WANG, Chunhu LI, Jiyuan ZHANG, Borui XU, Qianhui CHENG, Xiong HU, Xueguang ZHU, Wei LIANG, Pu YUAN, Yanqing FENG, Zhenji WEI

“…However, the exploration and production of deep CBM are still confronted with many technical challenges, and there is a lack of studies on key experimental technologies related to the geological characteristics and engineering assessment of deep CBM reservoirs, the occurrence characteristics and production mechanisms of gas and water, the formulation of production systems, and methods for enhanced CBM recovery. Advances in ResearchGiven the characteristics of deep coal seams and CBM, this study identifies four challenges in the exploration and exploitation of deep coal seams: the collection of large coal samples, the high-temperature, high-pressure, and high-stress in-situ conditions, high-precision characterization and desorption of sub-nano- to nano-scale micropores, and the accurate determination of gas content. …”
