"Coal Bed Methane: From Prospect to Pipeline"is the proceedings
of the 25th anniversary of the North American Coal Bed Methane
Forum. It provides the latest advancements in the production of
coal bed methane covering a variety of topics, from exploration to
gas processing, for commercial utilization. Additionally, it
presents the origin of gas in coal, reservoir engineering, control
of methane in coal mines, production techniques, water management,
and gas processing.
The vast coal resources in theUnited Statescontinue to produce
tremendous amounts of natural gas, contributing to a diverse range
energy assets. Following a rapid advancement and subsequent plateau
in technological developments, this book captures the full life
cycle of a well and offers petroleum geologists and engineers a
single source of a broad range of coal bed methane applications.
This book addresses crucial technical topics, including exploration
and evaluation of coal bed reservoirs; hydraulic fracturing of CBM
wells; coal seam degasification; and production engineering and
processing, among others. It also covers legal issues, permitting,
and economic analysis of CBM projects.
Edited by a team of coal bed methane experts from industry,
academia and government who have more than 75 years of combined
experience in the fieldAuthored by well-recognized members of the
gas and coal industry, universities, US government departments,
such as the Department of Energy and the National Institute of
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)More than 200 figures,
photographs, and illustrations aid in the understanding of the
fundamental conceptsPresents the full scope of improvements in US
energy independence, coal mine safety, and greenhouse gas
emissions"
