A simple method for solving unidirectional methane gas flow in coal seam based on similarity solution

A Novel Acoustic Liquid Level Determination Method for Coal Seam Gas Wells Based on Autocorrelation Analysis

In coal seam gas (CSG) wells, water is periodically removed from the wellbore in order to keep the bottom-hole flowing pressure at low levels, facilitating the desorption of methane gas from the coal bed. In order to calculate gas flow rate and further optimize well performance, it is necessary to accurately monitor the liquid level in real-time. This paper presents a novel method based on auto...

Health Effects of Coal Seam Gas - Tara

I visited Tara on 11 and 12 October as requested, to undertake a review of individuals who believe their health has been adversely affected as a result of coal seam gas exploration being undertaken in the region. Queensland Health provided the consultation room with the Tara health facility, and also advertised my attendance, and made appointments for those families and individuals who telephon...

Estimation of coal seams gas content for evaluating potential use of methane drainage system in Tabas coal mine

Methane gas emission, accumulation, and explosion are the most important risk factors in underground coal mines. Hence, having a knowledge of methane gas emission potential in underground coal mines is of crucial importance in preventing the explosion risk, loss of life, and property, and providing miners' safety. The purpose of this work is to provide the prediction maps for the C1, C2, and B2...

Constraining Surface Deformation Predictions Resulting from Coal Seam Gas Extraction

Actions to improve coal seam gas drainage performance

Coal seam gas drainage is affected by many factors which may be generally divided into two groups, geological factors and operational factors. Studies conducted in the Bulli seam found geological factors had a dominant impact on coal seam gas drainage while operational factors had a secondary impact, affecting the amount of optimum gas drainage performance achieved within the limitations impose...
