The significance of pore structure and fractal characteristics is important for understanding
untapped Coalbed Methane (CBM) exploration. In this study, these features of low rank coal …

The detection and attribution of methane in aquifers overlying oil and gas reservoirs has
recently gained increasing attention internationally. The Surat Basin, in the Great Artesian …

Freeze-thaw induced fracturing coal by liquid nitrogen (LN2) injection exerts a significant
positive effect on the fracture permeability enhancement of the coal reservoir. To evaluate …

In regions where there are multiple sources of methane (CH 4) in close proximity, it can be
difficult to apportion the CH 4 measured in the atmosphere to the appropriate sources. In the …

Recent climate change mitigation strategies rely on the reduction of methane (CH 4)
emissions. Carbon and hydrogen isotope ratio (δ 13 C CH 4 and δ 2 H CH 4) measurements …

Understanding the occurrence and sources of methane in aquifers is an international issue,
especially in regions that host oil and gas reservoirs. Multi-isotopic studies are important to …

The energy sector and coal scientists have been enthusiastic about characterizing and
understanding the vertical and lateral depositional systems of thick coal seam. However …

In certain areas, key aquifers of the Great Artesian Basin (GAB), Australia, are experiencing
continued declining water-level trends. This has been accompanied by heated conflicts …

Geochemical and microbiological indicators of methane (CH 4) production, oxidation and
migration processes in groundwater are important to understand when attributing sources of …

Understanding inter-aquifer connectivity or leakage of greenhouse gases and groundwater
to aquifers overlying gas reservoirs is important for environmental protection and social …
