Abstract

The information of coal-bed distribution, rank and gas-bearing nature of Jurassic coals in eastern Junggar basin were analyzed, and the controlling factors of coal-bed methane (CBM) accumulation were pointed out, which were coal rank, coal seam depth, and preservation conditions. The most important factor was depth of weathered zone of methane and coal rank. Consequently, Badaowan formation in Bogeda piedmont and Jimusaer depression and coal bed of Xishanyao formation in Wutongwozi depression were identified as the enriched areas of CBM in eastern Junggar basin. In a word, the Bogeda piedmont would be the main target for exploration in this area.
