Coal Bed Methane (2nd Ed.) Theory and Applications

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Thakur Pramod, Schatzel Steven J., Aminian Kashy, Rodvelt Gary, Mosser Morgan H., D'Amico Joseph S.

Couverture de l’ouvrage Coal Bed Methane

Coal Bed Methane: Theories and Applications, Second Edition, captures the full lifecycle of a coal bed methane well and offers petroleum geologists and engineers a single source for a broad range of coal bed methane (CBM) applications. The vast coal resources in the United States continue to produce tremendous amounts of natural gas, contributing to a diverse range of energy assets. 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.

The book also covers legal issues and permitting, along with an economic analysis of CBM projects. This new edition includes information on new and established research and applications, making it relevant for field geologists and engineers, as well as students.

Section A: Origin, geology, and reserve for CBM reservoirs 1a. The origin of coalbed methane 2. Geology of North American coalbed methane reservoirs 3a. United States Lower 48 coalbed methane-Benchmark (2010)

Section B: CBM reservoir characteristics 4. Gas storage in coal 5. Gas transportation in CBM reservoir 6. Estimating the gas in place and reserves 7. Material balance equation for CBM reservoirs 8. Production behavior and performance predictions 9. Modeling and simulation for CBM production 10. Enhanced CBM recovery

Section C: Vertical wells and their applications 11. Improved wireline logging 12. Improved construction of vertical wells 13. Enhanced hydrofracturing 14. Gas production and decline from vertical wells

Section D: Horizontal wells and their applications 15. History and methodology of horizontal drilling 16. In-mine horizontal drilling and applications 17. Horizontal drilling from surface and applications 18. Hydrofracturing of Horizontal Wells 19. Gas production and decline for horizontal wells 20. CO2 sequestration and underground coal gasification with horizontal wells

Section E: Production engineering for coalbed methane 21. Postfrac engineering design 22. Produced water management 23. Preliminary gas gathering and intermediate compression 24. Plugging of CBM wells

Section F: CBM processing and utilization 25. CBM gathering, compression, and dehydration 26. CBM processing with related costs 27. CBM utilization with economics

Coal and gas industry professionals, petroleum geologists, mining industry professionals, and students in these fields

Dr. Pramod C Thakur is the president of a consulting firm, Expert Solutions for Mine Safety (ESMS) LLC, in Morgantown, West Virginia, USA, and an adjunct professor at the West Virginia University. He served the coal industry for 50 years. He began his career designing mine ventilation with Andrew Yule & Co for 8 years. During his last 42 years with CONOCO, CONSOL Energy and Murray Energy, he developed four different techniques for mine degasification and coalbed methane production. He researched respirable dust control and diesel exhaust dispersion at the Pennsylvania State University. These techniques are used not only in the United States but also in many countries overseas. Appointed by the Governor of West Virginia, he served as a commissioner for 18 years and wrote the WV Diesel Regulations that serves as a model for the global coal industry. He is a distinguished alumnus of IIT(ISM), India, and a Centennial Fellow of the Pennsylvania State University. He is a member of the Society of Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration (SME), USA, since 1969. He has written four books on mine ventilation and coalbed methane control and published more than 50 papers in technical journals. He has been awarded the Howard Hartmann and Howard Eavenson Award for excellent work in mine ventilation engineering and mine health and safety by the SME.
Steven Schatzel, PhD, is Lead Research Scientist in the Office of Mine Safety and Health Research at the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health in Pittsburgh.

The three editors of the publication are board members of the North American Coal Bed Methane Forum (NACBMF), and they represent industry, academia and government. Each has more than 25 years of experience in coal bed methane research, field work, and instruction. The NACBMF has organized conferences to advance mine safety and to increase production of coal bed methane as a worldwide energy resource. For 28 years the Forum has provided an opportunity for an exc
