CBM is natural gas
|
|
|
|
that is sourced and
|
|
|
reservoired in a coal
|
|
|
seam. It is often
|
|
|
produced through a
|
|
|
bore-hole that allows
|
|
gas and water to be
|
|
|
produced to the
|
|
|
surface. Shallow
|
|
|
|
aquifers, if present,
|
|
|
need to be protected
|
|
|
but in the western
|
|
|
US, the producing
|
|
|
|
coal bed is often a
|
|
|
USDW.
