Description

Yuyan Che and co-authors build, in 2026, a model to predict gas content deep inside coal seams from well logs. Deep coalbed methane is a strategic gas resource in China's Ordos Basin, yet measurements of gas and stress underground are sparse. The study focuses on one thick seam in the Linxing-Shenfu block.

The improved model folds in rock compression, heat expansion, and swelling from adsorbed gas. Log data then mapped stress profiles across the block. Critical depths, where gas behavior and stress regime flip, ran deeper in the south than the north. The authors propose a layered development plan matched to those zones.
