Gas saturation is a critical parameter for the selection and development of coalbed methane, as well as a key indicator reflecting the challenges in coalbed methane development and productivity evaluation of coalbed methane wells. As one of the significant factors influencing gas saturation, gas content plays a vital role in comprehensively investigating coal pore properties to fully comprehend the process and conditions of methane adsorption and desorption. In this study, 3# and 15# coals from Qinshui Basin, China was selected as research subjects. The experimental evaluation encompassed an examination of composition, pore characteristics, permeability characteristics of coal, rock mechanical parameters while discussing the impact of temperature and pressure on coal's adsorption and desorption capacity. The mineral characteristics analysis revealed that vitrinite is the main component with varying percentages and reflectance values in both 3# and 15# coal seams. The gas content and methane concentration in the 15# coal seam are higher than those in the 3# coal seam. The relationship between gas content within a coal seam and burial depth depends on achieving a balance between positive pressure effects caused by overburden stress exertion on gases trapped within pores under high pressures during burial history versus negative temperature effects due to cooling during geological processes over time. Predictions were made regarding deep-coal gas content which holds significant implications for accurately understanding variations in desorption behavior along with optimizing fracturing engineering.
