Great Stress

The rapid industrialization and growing energy needs have put a great stress on the conventional energy resources. This is even more concerning for a country like India which is a net importer of oil. To meet the ever increasing need for energy, it is essential that the search for unconventional energy is intensified. This paper deals with the estimation of coal bed methane potential of the Margherita Coal Field of Assam, India. For this purpose, eight coal samples were collected from Tirap O.C.P., Ledo UG Incline and Tikak O.C.P collieries of the Margherita coal field. Proximate analysis, megascopic study and finally qualitative analysis of these eight samples was undertaken. After analysis, the inferred reserves of CBM at Margherita Coalfield, was found to be in the range of 42.5-49.04 Billion Cubic Meter.Int J Appl Sci Biotechnol, Vol 3(2): 232-235DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijasbt.v3i2.12449

High Production

Coal bed methane (CBM) is a kind of natural gas that generated from coal and disseminated organic matters during the stage of diagenesis and coalification, which mainly composed of methane and hosted in coal seam by free, adsorbed, and dissolved forms. Genetic, reservoir type and occurrence condition in CBM are different from traditional reservoir. And the high-produced development wells in CBM aiming to drill more coal seams with high quality therefore needs to be analyzed in the methods that are different from traditional reservoir. 3 important factors including the study on correlation and elevation depth of coal seam roof and floor in section and areal by using well-seismic ties, outcrop boundary based on coal mine data and distributions of CBM reservoir properties in 3D model are needed for high-produced development well analyze in CBM. Application in Australia CBM project shows this methodology is very successful for the development well design with high production.
