Effects of structural fracture and in situ stress combination characteristics on the production of coalbed methane wells: A case in the Mabidong block, China

Abstract Similar drilling, fracturing, and drainage techniques were adopted in the early stage of developing coalbed methane (CBM) in the Mabidong block, but the production of adjacent CBM wells was significantly different. The effects of coal seam depth, thickness, reservoir pressure, the ratio of...
