Several Commonly Used Fracturing Methods for Deep Coalbed Methane Horizontal Wells
Coalbed methane resource is an important unconventional natural gas resource with a broad development prospect in China.However,due to the inherent low permeability and low porosity of deep coalbed methane wells,whose yields are generally low.Therefore how to increase the capacity of coalbed methane has been an important research direction.Coalbed methane well fracturing technology has been widely used as an important means to increase coalbed methane production capacity.Several hydraulic fracturing technical methods for deep coalbed methane horizontal wells and their extended applications were highlighted in relation to the characteristics of coalbed methane extraction,with a view to providing useful references for the efficient development and utilization of coalbed methane resources.
