Advanced Reservoir and Production Engineering for Coal Bed Methane

This book presents the reader with design systems that will maximize production from worldwide coal bed methane reservoirs. With more than 40 years of experience, Dr. Pramod Thakur, President of NACBMF, is an expert in the field. The author starts with much needed introductory basics on gas content and diffusion of gas in coal, crucial for anyone in the mining and natural gas industries.

Going a step further, chapters on hydrofracking, horizontal drilling technology, and production strategies address the challenges of dewatering, low production rates, and high development costs. This book systematically addresses all three zones of production levels, shallow coal, medium depth coal, and deep coal with coverage on gas extraction and production from a depth of 500 feet to upwards of 10,000 feet, strategies which cannot be found in any other reference book.
