Coal seam gas shale gas as two different unconventional gas

Coal seam gas development approach used is pressure depletion method,shale gas mining technology, including horizontal well technology and multi-fracturing, water fracturing, repeated fracturing technology and the latest technology to synchronize fracturing, although adsorption and the simultaneous presence of gas in free phase, but the development of shale gas does not need to drain down. With the rapid development of coalbed methane industry, shale gas development has entered a rapid development period. As two
different unconventional gas, coal bed methane and shale gas in the formation of the gas source, and many commonalities and differences exist reservoirs etc.

             

An effective low density proppant

Hydraulic fracturing from the late 1840s and continue to innovate. Oil and gas industry has been relying on technology development fracturing marginal economic fields. Past research focused on technology development in a more clean and efficient fracturing fluids, proppants do not get the same degree of attention and development (except the resin coating and ceramic technology). Because any particular form of crack would limit the amount of proppant placed, thus creating a ceiling proppant pack conductivity of the final. To improve this situation, so there is an effective low density proppant

Proppants is widely used

Proppants currently used mainly in quartz sand, resin coated ceramic support agents and composite particles. Due to the low cost quartz sand, while low density easy pumping, is widely used, but quartz sand strong low end, the ball is poor, reducing fracture conductivity, does not apply to closed high pressure deep well. resin coated sand proppant, the sphericity improved corrosion resistance strong, conductivity is also good, but the products remain short-term, the cost is too high, the cost-oriented promotion is not easy today, while the use of bauxite ceramic proppants ceramic technology, high density, good sphericity, corrosion resistance, high temperature, high pressure, while the costs can be better controlled, and therefore more and more widely used in oil and gas fields.
          

Petroleum proppant also called oil fracturing proppants.

Petroleum proppant also called oil fracturing proppants. When oil and gas after deep mining, high closure pressure after fracturing low permeability deposit processing, the hydrocarbon formation split, passage of oil and gas from the cracks formed in the collection out of the fluid injected into the rock grassroots needs at this time, to exceed the formation fracture pressure strength, so that cracks the rock around the wellbore,  Proppant into the formation along with the high-pressure solution filled in cracks in the rock, play a supporting fissures not because of stress release and closing action, thereby maintaining high conductivity, so that oil and gas flow, increase production.

Oil well fracking s widely used in oilfield.

Oil well fracking of new wells in the reservoir is low porosity, fluid flow out; or old older oil wells are blocked, the oil flow resistance is large, with high pressure and a certain liquid pressure to open the bottom of proppant into the fracture It is supported, thereby enhancing the formation conductivity, to achieve an end yield very effective technological measures. It is a production efficiency, enhanced oil recovery process for a very important and is widely used in oilfield.
