Coal fines can substantially influence coal seam gas reservoir permeability, thus impeding
the flow of gas in coal microstructure. The coal fines generation and migration are influenced …

The evolution of coal permeability is very complex under the influence of coupled multiple
processes. This is the primary motivation why numerous coal permeability models have …

The influence of hydraulic fracturing on coal microfractures (10–1000 μm) is an important
part of the stimulation mechanism of coalbed methane (CBM) hydraulic fracturing, which is …

Fractures are the main migration pathways for Coalbed Methane (CBM) in coals, which
dominate the permeability of coal reservoirs. One significant anisotropic characteristic of …

Field observations have shown that the concentration of fines produced during the early two-
phase flow stage in coalbed methane (CBM) reservoirs is much higher than single-phase …

Hydraulic fracturing is the main stimulation technique that enables the economic production
of coalbed methane reservoirs. However, massive invasion and retention of coal fines in …

Hydraulic fracturing is an effective approach to improve the productivity of coalbed methane
(CBM) reservoirs. However, during hydraulic fracturing and CBM production, massive coal …

Undersaturated reservoirs, hydraulic fracturing, and permeability velocity-sensitive damage
are important factors of coalbed methane (CBM) development, but some scholars consider …

Measurements of the coal fines production and the impact of these fines on the permeability
of two coals from the Bowen Basin, Australia, were performed at different flow conditions …

Fines migration has posed a great challenge to gas and water production in CBM reservoirs,
resulting not only in dramatic permeability reduction but also in excessive wear on …
