The first batch of coalbed methane in Xinjiang was successfully listed for sale

Tianshan News (Reporter Wang Yayun) The reporter learned from the Natural Resources Department of the Autonomous Region: Recently, the first batch of eight coalbed methane census exploration rights in Xinjiang successfully transferred, with a total transaction price of 31.062 million yuan. As a result, the survey and development of Xinjiang's quasi -southern coal seam gas planning mining area was officially opened.

It is understood that the eight coalbed methane minerals are located in Fukang City, Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture, with an area of ​​141.66 square kilometers, all of which are coalbed methane wealthy concentrations. It is better to find the mining prospect.

Xinjiang's coalbed methane is rich in resources, especially in Junggar, Tarim, Turpan -Hami, Santang Lake, Yili and other basins. However, Xinjiang's coalbed methane is a low -order coalbed methane, and it is difficult to develop. In addition, the resource exploration starts late, the basic geological work is low, and the coal seam gas exploration and development work in the region is relatively lagging behind.

Since 2013, the autonomous region has implemented coalbed methane to the southern edge and northern edge of the Tarim Basin to implement coalbed methane to investigate and develop a pilot demonstration project. One hundred million cubic meters. Among them, the development of three coalbed methanes, including Fukang Baiyang River, Urumqi, and Baicheng Mining Area has achieved significant results, and has formed a 55 million cubic meter annual production scale.

The relevant person in charge of the Natural Resources Department of the Autonomous Region stated that the next step will continue to be preferred and batched in the coal seam gas block to promote the development and utilization of coalbed methane in the region.
