Natural Gas - Coal Bed Methane<br />

10%<br />

Of US natural gas production comes<br />

from coal bed methane (CBM)<br />

Natural Gas<br />

The “Fuel of the Future” – cleanest fossil<br />

fuel option available – key component of<br />

US energy supplies and world’s fastest<br />

growing major fuel<br />

CBM<br />

Dramatic Transformation<br />

Former “Miner’s Curse” now an<br />

exciting commercial success story<br />

CBM<br />

Coal is both reservoir rock and<br />

source rock for methane<br />

Natural Gas<br />

CO2 emissions 40-50% lower than<br />

coal and 25-35% lower than<br />

petroleum<br />

Production Profile<br />

CBM fields usually increase to peak<br />

production after 6-18 months then<br />

decline like conventional reservoir<br />

o US gas production continues to increase<br />

o LNG export markets continue to grow – China, S.Korea, Japan<br />

o LNG rising 6-8%pa as countries shift to lower carbon fuels<br />

o World natural gas supply should go into deficit by end of 2016<br />
