Abstract
China has achieved major breakthroughs in the exploration of deep coal-rock gas
marking a strategic shift from traditional shallow coalbed methane to deep coal-rock gas. As a high-quality source rock
coal-rock is characterized by high organic matter abundance
continuous gas generation throughout its entire evolution process
and strong storage capacity
which is conducive to the formation of coal-rock gas reservoir where adsorbed and free gases coexist. Based on the new theo
ry of "whole petroleum system of coal measures"
this paper reveals the accumulation mechanism and resource potential of coal-rock gas. The preliminary evaluations indicate that the deep coal-rock gas resources with a burial depth greater than 1 500 meters exceed 100×10

in China
approximately twice that of conventional natural gas resources
providing a resource foundation for the formation of super-large gas fields. In Daji block of Ordos Basin
large-scale development has been achieved through the application of horizontal well and volumetric fracturing technologies
with an average daily production of 12×10

demonstrating promising development prospects. At present
China has established a series of key technological systems
including experimental testing
optimized drilling and completion
fracturing stimulation
and volume development
which support the efficient extraction of coal-rock gas. However
challenges still exist in coal-rock gas development
such as incomplete theoretical system
unclear sedimentary evolution mechanisms
and insufficient research on accumulation mechanisms. To address these issues
it is suggested to systematically conduct nationwide resource assessments
strengthen exploration in key areas
optimize mining right management
and promote theoretical innovation and demonstration applications. These efforts will provide strategic support for increasing natural gas reserves and production and enhancing China’s energy self-sufficiency capacity.
