Coal reservoirs especially deep unminable coal reservoirs, are viable geological target
formations for CO2 storage to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. An advantage of this …

This paper presents reviews of studies on properties of coal pertinent to carbon dioxide (CO
2) sequestration in coal with specific reference to Victorian brown coals. The coal basins in …

We have developed a new coal-permeability model for uniaxial strain and constant
confining-stress conditions. The model is unique in that it explicitly considers fracture–matrix …

Understanding permeability evolution in coal is critical for the prediction of coalbed methane
(CBM) production and prevention of mine gas disasters. The primary objective of this study …

Coal permeability has been identified as one of the key factors affecting coalbed methane
(CBM) extraction. CBM drainage and hydraulic fracturing usually lead to coal fines output …

Proppants are often utilized during hydraulic fracturing to aid the retention of the fracture
aperture. However, for coal the permeability enhancement may be mitigated due to proppant …

In this study, we investigate coal matrix swelling during the process of gas diffusion from
cleats and its impact on the evolution of strain. We inject helium into both jacketed and …

Several coal seams are contained within the formations of Great Artesian Basin (GAB), the
largest natural underground water reservoir in Australia and the world. The extraction of coal …

The permeability of coal subjected to triaxial compression was investigated to relate it to the
change of stresses state, analogous to mining-induced redistribution of stress in the …

This study focuses on develo** a micromechanical model of poroelasticity with adsorption-
induced permeability change occurred in porous material. The underlying pore pressure …
