INTRODUCTION of CBM (Coal Bed Methane)
• Coal is a source, seal and reservoir rock. Gas is sorbed on the coal surface. Typically over 90% methane with some ethane and carbon dioxide.
• CBM production requires dewatering the coal formations. When the pressure is reduced, gases are desorbed and flow to the wellbore via a natural network of fractures (cleats). After gas arrives at the wellbore, it is produced utilizing conventional hydrocarbon gas extraction technology
• Slow initial desorption and relative permeability effects create a “negative gas decline curve.” Unique production characteristics of CBM results in low but inclining initial gas production, peaking around 4‐6 years as the coal is dewatered (depressurized).
• There are many benefits of CBM, such as for energy sourcing (gas), power (electricity), industry (methanol, fertilizer). CBM can be used locally or to be exported LNG). Even offer benefits for global climate purposes (CO2 sequestration, Carbon Trading)

HIGHLIGHTS of SHALE GAS
• The definition of gas shale is understood (in US)
• Complete geochemistry and laboratory analysis are definitely required to confirm the parameter of gas shale potential
• One (1) D Basin Modeling are needed to check the gas shale maturity distribution
• Seismic interpretation approach are also required to complete and establish the gas shale play map, and also to make prospects priority
• It is an expensive project but..
“YES, WE (INDONESIA) HAVE THE GAS SHALE POTENTIAL !!”
What are they?
• Organic-rich shales
• Source Rocks
• Adsorbed and free gas
• Very low permeability
Common traits of gas shale reservoirs
• Abundant gas (20 to 500 BCF/ section)
• Low recovery efficiency (8 to 12 %)
• Large developments (economies of scale)
• Fracture stimulation
• Long well life

Recruitment Overview

Coalbed methane (CBM) or Coal Bed Methane, coalbed gas or coal mine methane (CMM) is a form of natural gascoal beds. In recent decades it has become an important source of energy in United States, Canada, and other countries. Australia has rich deposits where it is known as extracted from coal seam gas (abbreviated “CSG”[1]).
The term refers to methane adsorbed into the solid matrix of the coal. It is called ‘sweet gas’ because of its lack of hydrogen sulfide. The presence of this gas is well known from its occurrence in underground coal mining, where it presents a serious safety risk. Coalbed methane, often referred to as CBM, is distinct from a typical sandstone or other conventional gas reservoir, as the methane is stored within the coal by a process called adsorption. The methane is in a near-liquid state, lining the inside of pores within the coal (called the matrix). The open fractures in the coal (called the cleats) can also contain free gas or can be saturated with water.
Unlike much natural gas from conventional reservoirs, coalbed methane contains very little heavier hydrocarbons such as propane or butane, and no natural gas condensate. It often contains up to a few percent carbon dioxide. Some coal seams, such as those in certain areas of the Illawarra Coal Measures in NSW, Australia, contain little methane, with the predominant coal seam gas being carbon dioxide.
