Abstract

The invention relates to a coal bed gas thermal exploitation method, and particularly provides an in-situ heating method of coal bed gas thermal exploitation. The technical problems that in an existing exploitation method, a shaft needs to be subjected to improvement of heat insulation and maintenance, so that large difficulty is brought to construction and the method cannot be implemented in a special area are solved. The in-situ heating method comprises the steps that through drilling, a high-power electrical heating rod, a water injection steel tube and temperature and pressure sensors are placed in a coal bed gas reservoir which is subjected to hydraulic fracturing, blocking is conducted by means of high-temperature-resistant rubber packer, water is injected into a coal bed, the injected cold water is heated by means of the electrical heating rod, the water serves as a heat-transfer medium, thickness, permeability, gas content and other factors of the coal bed are combined, and the water injection rate of the coal bed and the heating power of the electrical heating rod are adjusted, so that the coal bed gas reservoir is heated in situ. The effective in-situ heating method is also provided for low-permeability coal bed gas thermal exploitation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for thermal exploitation of coal bed gas. In particular, it relates to an in-situ heating method for thermal exploitation of coalbed methane, which heats the injected cold water by placing an electric heating rod in the coal reservoir, and uses the water as a heat transfer medium to realize heating of the coalbed. technical background [0002] Coal mine gas is a flammable gas. It is not only a precious resource, but also the biggest hidden danger that threatens the safe production of coal mines. During the mining process, gas diffuses from the coal seam and gushes out into the tunnel of the mine. When the gas concentration in the tunnel reaches the explosion limit and encounters an open flame, a coal mine gas explosion accident will occur. Underground gas pre-drainage in the coal seam or adjacent coal seams is an effective method to reduce mine gas emission and prevent coal mine gas disasters. The main extraction me...
