1/1/1984 - Information CircularsA tabulation of methane emissions during 1980 for all United States coal mines with emissions greater than 0.1 MMcfd. The report also compares records of 1975 and 1980 and describes relationships between emissions in 1980 and the Bureau's coalbed gas co...
-
12/1/1983 - Reports of InvestigationsMajor problems facing the development of coal and gas resources of the Hartshorne Coalbeds include the complex distribution of minable and unminable coal, high methane content and bed pressure, faulting, variations in degree of dip, presence of natural ...
-
1/1/1982 - Information CircularsThe objective of this paper is to provide information on specific geologic factors that should be considered prior to, during, and after the drilling of coalbed gas drainage boreholes. Many of the commonsense considerations that have been learned throug...

Probability of Encountering Coalbed Discontinuities During Vertical and Horizontal Borehole Drilling1/1/1982 - Reports of InvestigationsProbabilities of encountering coalbed discontinuities during vertical or horizontal drilling in a specific coalbed can be estimated based on analysis of mined-out areas of the coalbed where the size, shape, orientation, and distribution of discontinuiti...
-
1/1/1981 - Reports of InvestigationsThe Bureau of Mines investigated coal storage silos to determine how gassy coal must be for methane accumulations in a silo to become hazardous and where such accumulations are likely to occur. Methane concentrations were measured in the open space abov...
-
1/1/1979 - Reports of InvestigationsThe Bureau of Mines developed data on the methane content of the Hartshorne coalbed, Haskell and Le Flore Counties, Oklahoma. The methane content is calculated to be between 1.1 and 1.5 trillion cubic feet. Methane increases with depth, but the rate of ...
-
1/1/1978 - Reports of InvestigationsThe methane gas emitted from coal samples collected from the conveyor belts dumping into silos was measured. Approximately 50 pct of the total gas desorbed into a sealed can within 1 week was released during the first 24 hours. No simple correlation bet...
-
1/1/1977 - Reports of InvestigationsThe Bureau of Mines estimated the methane content of a coal, which depends primarily upon rank and pressure, from the adsorption equation V = kPn, where k and n are constants related to rank.
-
1/1/1977 - Information CircularsThis Bureau of Mines report tabulates methane emissions from U.S. Bituminous coal mines with daily emission rates of at least 100,000 cfd according to states, counties, and coalbeds. Most of the methane emitted is from mines in the Appalachian States. T...
-
1/1/1977 - Reports of InvestigationsThis Bureau of Mines report deals with water infusion of coalbeds, which can control methane emission at face areas during developmental mining and which may sometimes suppress dust. Studies show that water infused into the coalbed flows through the fra...
