TAIYUAN, Sept. 13 (Xinhua) — The cumulative gas output from China's largest Daning-Jixian coalbed methane field in north China's Shanxi Province has exceeded 4 billion cubic meters, setting a new domestic record, according to the field's operator PetroChina Coalbed Methane Co., Ltd.
As an unconventional natural gas, coal bed methane is considered a clean and strategic energy resource. Its use helps reduce production risks, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and alleviate gas shortages.
Shanxi Province has abundant coalbed methane reserves, estimated at 8.31 trillion cubic meters, located at a depth of less than 2,000 meters, accounting for nearly a third of the national total. At present, the Danning-Jixian gas field produces more than 6.5 million cubic meters of gas per day, up more than 50 percent from the same period last year, showing strong growth momentum.
The coalbed methane deposit is located on the eastern edge of the Ordos Basin, with resources occurring at an average depth of 2,130 m. The total estimated coalbed methane resources of the deposit are approximately 600 billion cubic meters. -0-
