This study aims at investigating the CBM production in No.15 coal seam and its influence factors. Based on a series of laboratory experiments and latest exploration and development data from local coal mines and CBM companies, the spatial characteristics of gas production of No.15 coal seam were analyzed and then the influences of seven factors on the gas productivity of this coal seam were discussed, including coal thickness, burial depth, gas content, ratio of critical desorption pressure to original coal reservoir pressure(RCPOP), porosity, permeability, and hydrogeological condition. The influences of hydrological condition on CBM production were analyzed based on the discussions of four aspects: hydrogeochemistry, roof lithology and its distribution, hydrodynamic field of groundwater, and recharge rate of groundwater. Finally, a three-level analytic hierarchy process(AHP) evaluation model was proposed for predicting the CBM potentials of the No.15 coal seam in the SQB. The best prospective target area for CBM production of the No.15 coal seam is predicted to be in the districts of Panzhuang, Chengzhuang and south of Hudi.展开更多

This detailed study of Carboniferous-Permian age geological data from the northern Shaanxi area (China) provides new insight for this type of shale gas. In addition, a new deposition and accumulation pattern for this type of shale gas is established.展开更多

Taking the shale of Taiyuan Formation in Qinshui Basin as the research object, the study analyzed the pore size of the shale of Taiyuan formation in detail from micropore to macropore by the methods of mercury injection, liquid nitrogen analysis and combination of liquid nitrogen and mercury injection. The results show that: 1) the visible pores and macropores are poorly developed and distributed unevenly in the shale of Taiyuan formation, and the micropores are well developed in the shale, and there are more open pores in the pore diameter range, and the pore connectivity is good;2) the liquid nitrogen experiment shows that the pores of Taiyuan Shale are relatively developed between 15 nm and 20 nm, and the formation of hysteresis loop may be caused by some narrow slit pores with similar layered structure;3) the comprehensive analysis of liquid nitrogen and mercury injection experiments shows that the shale of the Taiyuan formation mainly develops micropores, the Mesopores is not developed, the pore volume at 10 - 100 nm is more developed than other parts, and the specific surface is mainly contributed by micropores, which can improve the efficiency of shale gas resolution;at the same time, it provides a channel for Shale gas migration, which is beneficial to the development of shale gas.展开更多
