Matrix compressibility, shrinkage and swelling can cause profound changes in porosity and permeability of coalbed during gas sorption and desorption. These factors affect the distribution of pressure, methane production and CO2 sequestration. This paper compares the effects of cleat compression and matrix shrinkage and swelling models with the injection of different compositional gas mixtures (CO2 and N2). It shows that well performance, pressure distribution and properties of the seam are strongly affected by matrix shrinkage and swelling. Matrix shrinkage and swelling also affects net present value of the enhanced coalbed methane recovery scheme. In order to select the best enhanced coalbed methane recovery schemes, economic evaluation and sensitivity studies are necessary.
