Analogy Analysis of Coalbed Methane Reservoir-Forming Conditions in Jixi Basin

Abstract:

Based on coalbed methane geology theory, make use of coal and oil drilling data, from both of the coal reservoir characteristics and conservation conditions, Through comparative analysis of a number of geological factors of coalbed thickness, burial depth, metamorphic grade, gas content, roof and floor lithology, dip angle, etc, and found that there are many similarities between Jixi Basin and Black Warrior Basin in the United States of coalbed methane reservoir conditions. Compared to Black Warrior Basin, the advantages of Jixi Basin are that the coal metamorphism degree is high, the tired and single coalbed are thick, the closeness of roof and floor are good, the fault development and coalbed gas content are similar to it; the disadvantages of Jixi Basin are that the formation dip angle is large, the pressure gradient and permeability are small.
