Abstract

A comprehensive overview of coal bed methane (CBM) development in China is presented in the review, including geological conditions, major basins in operating and technologies of exploration and exploitation. The distribution of CBM in China is widespread, but exploitations are mainly conducted in the three basins of Qinshui, Ordos and Junggar. The experience from major operation basins has revealed the potential for CBM commercial exploitation. Existing problems and required future work has been identified. The development of mechanisms, technologies, methods, equipment, pipelines and policies, in China, needed to be accelerated to improve the exploration level of CBM.
