Coal bed methane (CBM) is rapidly becoming a significant contributor to energy needs
along the eastern seaboard of Australia. The prospective coal seams for methane …

The influence of coal composition and rank on coalbed methane reservoir capacity, gas
content and gas saturation have been investigated for a series of Australian, Canadian and …

Gas content of coals continuously change throughout their burial histories as a result of the
changing state of equilibrium of the coal–gas system caused by variations in P–T conditions …

The pores and methane adsorption-desorption characteristics are different between low-and
medium-rank coal. For this paper, mercury intrusion porosimetry and isothermal adsorption …

The pores and methane adsorption characteristics of low-rank coals are different from those
of high-rank coals. In part, the differences are due to maceral composition. For this paper …

The lower coalbed methane (CBM) adsorption capacity of the low rank coals is not only
related to its lower maturity, but also determined by the coal maceral compositions. In this …

This paper reviews various coal seam gas (CSG) models that have been developed for the
Sydney Basin, and provides an alternative interpretation for gas composition layering and …

Abstract The East Bokaro Basin of the Damodar valley is a potentially prospective CBM
(coalbed methane) play having significant cumulative coal seam thickness, in-situ gas …

The relationship between gas production from underground-to-inseam (UIS) drainage
boreholes and various coal seam properties and operational factors were examined. Gas …

Time-and position-resolved synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering data were acquired
from samples of two Australian coal seams: Bulli seam (Bulli 4, Ro= 1.42%, Sydney Basin) …
