Ham Univerriry qiprrrenrinnb Brirbnrie ABSTRACT: A projcct bcing undcrtakcn by a multidisciplincd group at The University of Quccilsland is described. The pro.jcct is cxainining fundamental aspccts of coal scam mcthanc and the scope of the various project sections is outlined. Coal bed mcthanc flow into minc openings or drainage networks is strongly inllucnccd by the scam property of pcrmcability. Representative mcasurcmcnt of pcrmcability must lakc into account aspect such ground stress, Kas pressure, cxistcnce of water and structures within the coal. Laboratory tested i n a ~clmcabilitvccil. his annuatus allows hoth axial and transvcrsc corc loadiie. Pcrmcahilitv is tcst!d 1 INTRODUCTION 2 PROJECT STRUCTURE Potential mcthanc gas extraction from coal scams is This broad nroicct examining fullda~ncntalasoccts of dependent on many factors. Imponant considerations relate to the origin of the gas, the Corm in which it is stored within the scam, flow mechanisms and production technology. A tnultidisciplined gmup within The University of Quccnsland is attempting to gain a fundamental understanding of gas and coal scam propcrtics through an interlinked study involving disciplines of engineering, surface have ma;; a substantial grant to the proicct. A chemistry and geology. An overview is givcn of this project and the approaches bcing undcrtakcn to gain a bcttcr fundaincntal understanding of Quccnslands and diliction is givcn io the projcct through the proposing Australias coal scam mcthanc resources. Emphasis of the questions: is placed on the proiect component dcvotcd to gaining 1. What geological and gcochcmical conditiol~s a bcttcr understanding of coal permeability.
