Coalbed Methane Potential in the Basin Guardo-Barruelo (North Spain)

Geology and Potential Coal and Coalbed Methane Resource of the Tuya River Coal Basin

This article forms pan of an ongoing study of the coal and coalbed methane resource potential of northwestern British Columbia. Other areas under study include the Bower basin coalfield, Telkwa coalfield and Tertiary coalfields of the Bulkley Valley. Tertiary sediments survive in many major watersheds in British Columbia. The sediments are generally not well consolidated, poorly exposed and the...

Well Evaluation for Coalbed Methane

Coalbed Methane Canister Desorption Techniques

The British Columbia Geological Survey Branch and the Geological Survey of Canada have initiated ajoint project to assess the coalbed-methane potential of coal deposits in British Columbia. This project entails participation with private industry to obtain fresh coal samples for desorption from exploration projects throughout the province. Samples are collected from the drill site and undergo a...

Overview of the Coalbed Methane Potential of Tertiary Coal Basins in the Interior of British Columbia

The interior of British Columbia contains a number of fault bounded Tertiary basins that contain coal (Figure 1). This paper brings together existing data that aids in assessing the coalbed methane (CBM) potential of the basins and presents new data on some of the basins. The CBM potential of the basins ranges from up to 1 tcf at Hat Creek to a few bcf at Coal River. In all cases the resources ...

Potential Coal and Coalbed Methane Resource of the Telkwa Coalfield, Central British Columbia (93l/11)

sampling and desorption testing of fresh coal samples obtained from companies conducting exploration throughout the province. In addition methane adsorption isotherm tests arc: performed on some samples. During the summer of 1992 a project was undertaken to test coal seams intersected in the ongoing Manalta Coal Limited drilling program in the Telkwa coalfield. On-sitc activities consisted of t...
