On the other hand, little is known about the gas content features of deep coal reservoirs in the eastern Junggar Basin, especially with regard to the gas content and the factors that affect it. Based on data from CBM drilling, logging, and seismic surveys, this study focuses on the gas content of Baijiahai Uplift’s primary Jurassic coal seams through experiments on the microscopic components of coal, industrial analysis, isothermal adsorption, low-temperature CO2, low-temperature N2, and high-pressure mercury injection. A systematic investigation of the controlling factors, including the depth, thickness, and quality of the coal seam and pore structure; tectonics; and lithology and thickness of the roof, was conducted. The results indicate that the Xishanyao Formation in the Baijiahai Uplift usually has a larger gas content than that in the Badaowan Formation, with the Xishanyao Formation showing that free gas and adsorbed gas coexist, while the Badaowan Formation primarily consists of adsorbed gas. The coal seams in the Baijiahai Uplift are generally deep and thick, and the coal samples from the Xishanyao and Badawan formations have a high vitrinite content, which contributes to their strong gas generation capacity. Additionally, low moisture and ash contents enhance the adsorption capacity of the coal seams, facilitating the storage of CBM. The pore-specific surface area of the coal samples is primarily provided by micropores, which is beneficial for CBM adsorption. Furthermore, a fault connecting the Carboniferous and Permian systems (C-P) developed in the northeastern part of the Baijiahai Uplift allows gas to migrate into the Xishanyao and Badaowan formations, resulting in a higher gas content in the coal seams. The roof lithology is predominantly mudstone with significant thickness, effectively reducing the dissipation of coalbed methane and promoting its accumulation." > <link rel="image_src" href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/img/journals/processes-logo.png?8600e93ff98dbf14" > <meta name="dc.title" content="Gas Content and Geological Control of Deep Jurassic Coalbed Methane in Baijiahai Uplift, Junggar Basin"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Bing Luo"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Haichao Wang"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Bin Sun"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Zheyuan Ouyang"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Mengmeng Yang"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Yan Wang"> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Xiang Zhou"> <meta name="dc.type" content="Article"> <meta name="dc.source" content="Processes 2024, Vol. 12, Page 2671"> <meta name="dc.date" content="2024-11-27"> <meta name ="dc.identifier" content="10.3390/pr12122671"> <meta name="dc.publisher" content="Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute"> <meta name="dc.rights" content="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"> <meta name="dc.format" content="application/pdf" > <meta name="dc.language" content="en" > <meta name="dc.description" content="Deep coalbed methane (CBM) resources are abundant in China, and in the last few years, the country’s search for and extraction of CBM have intensified, progressively moving from shallow to deep strata and from high-rank coal to medium- and low-rank coal.

On the other hand, little is known about the gas content features of deep coal reservoirs in the eastern Junggar Basin, especially with regard to the gas content and the factors that affect it. Based on data from CBM drilling, logging, and seismic surveys, this study focuses on the gas content of Baijiahai Uplift’s primary Jurassic coal seams through experiments on the microscopic components of coal, industrial analysis, isothermal adsorption, low-temperature CO<sub>2</sub>, low-temperature N<sub>2</sub>, and high-pressure mercury injection. A systematic investigation of the controlling factors, including the depth, thickness, and quality of the coal seam and pore structure; tectonics; and lithology and thickness of the roof, was conducted. The results indicate that the Xishanyao Formation in the Baijiahai Uplift usually has a larger gas content than that in the Badaowan Formation, with the Xishanyao Formation showing that free gas and adsorbed gas coexist, while the Badaowan Formation primarily consists of adsorbed gas. The coal seams in the Baijiahai Uplift are generally deep and thick, and the coal samples from the Xishanyao and Badawan formations have a high vitrinite content, which contributes to their strong gas generation capacity. Additionally, low moisture and ash contents enhance the adsorption capacity of the coal seams, facilitating the storage of CBM. The pore-specific surface area of the coal samples is primarily provided by micropores, which is beneficial for CBM adsorption. Furthermore, a fault connecting the Carboniferous and Permian systems (C-P) developed in the northeastern part of the Baijiahai Uplift allows gas to migrate into the Xishanyao and Badaowan formations, resulting in a higher gas content in the coal seams. The roof lithology is predominantly mudstone with significant thickness, effectively reducing the dissipation of coalbed methane and promoting its accumulation.</div> </section> <div id="html-keywords"> <div class="html-gwd-group"><div id="html-keywords-title">Keywords: </div><a href="/search?q=deep+coalbed+methane">deep coalbed methane</a>; <a href="/search?q=gas+content">gas content</a>; <a href="/search?q=geological+control">geological control</a>; <a href="/search?q=Baijiahai+Uplift">Baijiahai Uplift</a>; <a href="/search?q=Jurassic">Jurassic</a></div> <div> </div> </div> </div> </p> </div> </section> </div> <div class="hypothesis_container"> <ul class="menu html-nav" data-prev-node="#html-quick-links-title"> </ul> <div class="html-body"> <section id='sec1-processes-12-02671' type='intro'><h2 data-nested='1'> 1. Introduction</h2><div class='html-p'>With the growth of global energy demand and the increasing emphasis on environmental protection, countries have set energy conservation and emission reduction targets [<a href="#B1-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">1</a>]. As a low-carbon and renewable clean energy, coalbed methane has a positive effect on mitigating global climate change. CBM is usually located in deep underground coal seams. The gas reservoirs in these areas are often rich and have great development potential. Effective development can significantly aid in the transformation of the energy structure, lessen reliance on conventional fossil fuels, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and advance sustainable energy development [<a href="#B2-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">2</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>Prospecting and extracting deep CBM have advanced significantly both domestically and internationally in the past several years. Especially in the US, Australia, and Canada, the mining technology of deep CBM has been widely used and optimized [<a href="#B3-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">3</a>,<a href="#B4-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">4</a>,<a href="#B5-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">5</a>]. As China’s CBM resources are gradually explored and developed, the exploration and extraction of deep CBM has emerged as a crucial area of study. China started late in deep CBM exploration, but through the introduction of advanced technology and equipment, combined with the geological characteristics of domestic coal mines, it has also made some breakthroughs. The eploration and development of CBM gradually demonstrate the development trend from single coal seam to coal measures, from high-rank coal to low-rank coal, and from shallow to deep coal seams [<a href="#B6-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">6</a>]. Increasing, the research and development of deep CBM are conducive to increasing China’s natural gas production, improving the level of energy supply security, reducing the dependence on imported natural gas, and maintaining national energy security [<a href="#B7-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">7</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>China’s deep CBM resources are vast; preliminary assessments indicate that the CBM resources at depths below 2000 m are 40.71 trillion cubic meters, with 18.47 trillion cubic meters in the depth range of 2000 to 3000 m [<a href="#B8-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">8</a>]. Since the 13th Five-Year Plan, the coalbed methane industry in Xinjiang has accelerated its development, achieving breakthrough exploration in the Junggar Basin, Tianshan series basins, and Santanghu Basin. Among these, the Junggar Basin is the richest in CBM resources, with a gas-bearing area of 26,000 square kilometers at depths shallower than 2000 m and a predicted geological resource amount of 3.11 trillion cubic meters, accounting for 41.3% of Xinjiang’s coalbed methane resources. The Baijiahai Uplift is an important target area in the Junggar Basin with significant exploration and development potential [<a href="#B9-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">9</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>Previous investigations have revealed that the exploration potential of CBM depends on several key factors, including sedimentary environment, coal rank, structural and geological backgrounds, gas content, permeability, and fluid dynamics [<a href="#B10-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">10</a>]. For example, rock structure parameters are one of the most significant aspects affecting the effectiveness of the transport process of useful components in rock mass. Carbonate rocks, especially shale, have great uncertainty and are susceptible to cracks and water effects [<a href="#B11-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">11</a>]. Among these, one of the most difficult parameters to evaluate is gas content, which is crucial for the economic viability of CBM development [<a href="#B12-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">12</a>,<a href="#B13-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">13</a>,<a href="#B14-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">14</a>]. The distribution of gas content exhibits strong lateral variation between individual coal seams and vertical variation between individual wells, heavily influenced by various geological factors. Understanding these factors affecting CBM content is essential for formulating effective exploration strategies [<a href="#B15-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">15</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>The research on deep CBM in the Baijiahai Uplift is still in the preliminary stage. Although this area has rich potential for CBM resources, there are still some shortcomings in the current research. First of all, one of the biggest challenges in the exploration and development of deep CBM is the lack of understanding of the occurrence characteristics of CBM in the region. The geological structure of the Baijiahai Uplift area is complex; especially the burial depth of the deep coal seam is large, and the enrichment and migration law of coalbed methane is not completely clear [<a href="#B16-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">16</a>]. Secondly, the existing geological models and reservoir evaluation methods have not fully considered the influence of fracture structure and other factors on the CBM reservoir and migration in the region, resulting in insufficient research on the reservoir characteristics in the Baijiahai area. Meanwhile, the theoretical model of deep CBM gas content needs to be further improved and tested [<a href="#B17-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">17</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>In light of the most recent data on CBM exploration and development and based on the analysis of the gas-bearing distribution law of the main coal seam in the block, this paper studies the reservoir’s physical characteristics of the Baijiahai Uplift by looking at the conditions of burial depth, thickness, adsorption characteristics, pore characteristics, geological structure and lithology, roof thickness and lithology, and floor thickness and lithology. To explore the geological control factors of gas-bearing characteristics in the study area, the distribution law and exploration and development potential of CBM resources are clarified, which provides a scientific basis for the efficient development and utilization of CBM resources in the region.</div></section><section id='sec2-processes-12-02671' type=''><h2 data-nested='1'> 2. Geological Setting</h2><div class='html-p'>The Baijiahai Uplift is situated in the eastern section of the central depression of the Junggar Basin, occupying an area of around 4000 km<sup>2</sup> [<a href="#B18-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">18</a>]. The current structural formation dates back to the late Permian period and has undergone further superposition and modification due to the Indosinian, Yanshan, and Himalayan movements. The area mainly develops two synclines and one anticline, with the Baijiahai Anticline in the center, flanked by the Fukang–Shazhang Syncline to the north and the Wucaiwan Syncline to the south. A series of small faults, arranged in a “stepped” pattern, develop along the NE direction in the axial part of the Baijiahai Anticline. The dip angle of the fault in this area is steep, generally about 60°, and the fault distance is between 20 and 100 m, mostly between 40 and 70 m [<a href="#B19-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">19</a>]. Overall, it presents a NE-oriented, three-level positive structural unit, surrounded on three sides by hydrocarbon-generating depressions, making its structural position very favorable (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f001" class="html-fig">Figure 1</a>). The Jurassic Water Xigou Formation in the Baijiahai Uplift of the Dzungarian Basin is divided from bottom to top into the Badawan Group, the Sangonghe Group, and the Xishanyao Group. The two primary coal-bearing groups among them are the Xishanyao Group and the Badawan Group, primarily consisting of river delta sedimentary systems. The Badawan Group contains 1 to 15 coal seams, with most ranging from 2 to 5 seams; the mineable coal seams range from 1 to 11 layers. The Xishanyao Group contains 1 to 20 coal seams, with individual seams being thick and significantly influenced by sedimentary environments and coal accumulation processes [<a href="#B20-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">20</a>].</div></section><section id='sec3-processes-12-02671' type=''><h2 data-nested='1'> 3.

Coal Rock Quality Experiment</h4><div class='html-p'>The Baijiahai Uplift’s Xishanyao and Badawan formations are where the coal samples were extracted, specifically from wells BJ8, JT2, and DN141 in the Junggar Basin. According to GB/T 40485-2021 “Automatic Determination of Random Reflectance of Vitrinite in Coal—Image Analysis Method [<a href="#B22-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">22</a>]”, GB/T 8899-2013 “Methods for the Microscopic Composition and Mineral Composition of Coal [<a href="#B23-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">23</a>]”, and GB/T 30732-2014 “Industrial Analysis Methods for Coal—Instrumental Method [<a href="#B24-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">24</a>]”, the maximum vitrinite reflectance (Ro), industrial analysis, and microscopic composition content of each sample were determined (<a href="#processes-12-02671-t001" class="html-table">Table 1</a>). The findings show that the highest vitrinite reflectance of the samples from the Badawan Formation is around 0.43% to 0.73%, whereas the samples from the Xishanyao Formation are between 0.45% and 0.96%. According to the international coal classification standard, Ro < 0.5 is low-rank coal, 0.5 ≤ Ro < 2 is medium-rank coal, and Ro ≥ 2 is high-rank coal [<a href="#B25-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">25</a>]. Both groups of coal samples are classified as medium- to low-rank coal. The average vitrinite content in the Xishanyao Formation coal samples is 56.72%, while in the Badawan Formation coal samples, it is 90.33%, demonstrating that the Badawan Formation has a substantially higher vitrinite content than the Xishanyao Formation. The coal samples from the Xishanyao Formation have an average moisture content (M<sub>ad</sub>) of 3.64%, an average ash yield (A<sub>ad</sub>) of 2.57%, and an average volatile matter yield (V<sub>ad</sub>) of 27.37%. In contrast, the average moisture content in the Badawan Formation coal samples is 1.61%, with an average A<sub>ad</sub> of 6.38% and an average V<sub>ad</sub> of 42.55%. The Xishanyao Formation is classified as having extremely low total moisture, extremely low ash, and medium volatile matter coal, while the Badawan Formation is classified as having extremely low total moisture, low ash, and high volatile matter coal.</div></section><section id='sec3dot2-processes-12-02671' type=''><h4 class='html-italic' data-nested='2'> 3.2. Isothermal Adsorption Experiment</h4><div class='html-p'>The ISO-300 isothermal adsorption desorption equipment, manufactured by the Terratek Company in the US, was used to carry out the isothermal adsorption modeling studies for deep coal seams. The coal sample particle size was 60 to 80 mesh, and the methane concentration used in the experiments was 99.99%. The experimental methods and procedures followed GB/T 19560-2008 [<a href="#B27-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">27</a>]. The samples were treated under balanced water conditions for 24 h, ensuring that the coal samples reached equilibrium under each temperature condition. The data processing model was based on the Langmuir monolayer adsorption model to obtain the isothermal adsorption constants, including the Langmuir volume (V<sub>L</sub>) and Langmuir pressure (P<sub>L</sub>). The simulation design temperatures were set at 30 °C, 70 °C, and 80 °C, with a maximum simulated pressure of 25 MPa (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f002" class="html-fig">Figure 2</a>). The study region has a geothermal gradient of 2.4 °C/hm and a pressure gradient of 0.93 MPa/hm. According to the temperature and pressure conditions of the reservoir in the study area, the reservoir temperature range of the sample is 70 °C to 96 °C and the reservoir pressure range is 24 to 34 MPa. The maximum temperature simulated by isothermal adsorption experiment is 80 °C, and the maximum pressure is 25 MPa. For the Xishanyao Formation, the Langmuir volume ranged from 7.83 to 14.30 m<sup>3</sup>/t, with the mean of 11.70 m<sup>3</sup>/t, and the Langmuir pressure was 6.12 MPa on average, spanning from 2.90 to 9.87 MPa. For the Badawan Formation, the Langmuir volume ranged from 14.35 to 16.22 m<sup>3</sup>/t, with an average of 13.37 m<sup>3</sup>/t and the Langmuir pressure ranged from 3.38 to 6.36 MPa, with an average of 5.05 MPa (<a href="#processes-12-02671-t002" class="html-table">Table 2</a>).

Burial Depth of Coal Seams</h4><div class='html-p'>The burial depth is a significant factor affecting the gas content since it affects coalification and, in turn, CBM output. In addition, the buried depth of coal seams also plays a very important role in the preservation of coalbed methane [<a href="#B39-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">39</a>]. The present study demonstrates that there are two primary ways in which the control influence of the coal seam’s buried depth on gas content is manifested.</div><div class='html-p'>(1) The coal reservoir’s temperature and pressure gradually rise as the buried depth increases. The influence of the reservoir’s pressure on the adsorbed gas is larger than that of the reservoir temperature below the critical depth; in other words, the adsorbed gas increases as burial depth does. This is due to the fact that an increase in reservoir pressure causes the free gas to change into adsorbed gas, which helps to preserve adsorbed gas. The adsorption capacity tends to decrease as the burial depth approaches the critical depth, and the negative influence of temperature increases and the positive effect of pressure diminishes.</div><div class='html-p'>(2) As the burial depth of the coal seam increases, the pathway for coalbed methane migration upward lengthens. Additionally, due to compaction effects, the coal seam’s permeability declines, and its sealing capacity improves, which is beneficial for the storage of CBM [<a href="#B40-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">40</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>The burial depth of the Xishanyao Formation is between 1610 and 3363 m, with an average of 2719 m; the burial depth of the Badawaan Formation is between 1830 and 3620 m, with an average of 2991 m. The two groups of coal seams show the plane distribution characteristics of high southwest and low northeast (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f009" class="html-fig">Figure 9</a>). It is roughly the same as the plane distribution of the gas content. <a href="#processes-12-02671-f010" class="html-fig">Figure 10</a> displays the correlation analysis between the research area’s gas content and burial depth. In line with the pattern where gas content increases and then decreases in deeper coal seams, the results demonstrate that the gas content of both the Xishanyao and Badawaan formations generally exhibits a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with increasing burial depth. The turning depth for the gas content is between 2500 and 3000 m; when the burial depth is between 2500 and 3000 m, the gas content is relatively high, likely due to the higher gas retention capacity [<a href="#B12-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">12</a>].</div></section><section id='sec5dot2dot2-processes-12-02671' type=''><h4 class='' data-nested='3'> 5.2.2.

The amount of organic matter in coal increases in tandem with the coal seam’s thickness. Coal reservoir is a kind of high-density and low-permeability rock stratum. The thicker the coal seam is, the greater the resistance of coalbed methane to spread to the roof and floor, so as to prevent the escape of coalbed methane [<a href="#B42-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">42</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>In the Baijiahai Uplift, the thickness of the Xishanyao Formation’s coal seams is 8 to 20 m, with an average of 11.97 m, progressively increasing from west to east.

The distribution patterns of coal thickness and total gas content in the Xishanyao Formation and Badowan Formation of the Baijiahai Uplift show obvious differences. The Xishanyao Group has a higher gas content in the area of the thick coal seam, demonstrating a favorable relationship between gas content and thickness (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f012" class="html-fig">Figure 12</a>). In contrast, the correlation between coal seam thickness and gas content in the Badawan Formation is weak, indicating that the enrichment mechanism of Jurassic coalbed methane in the Baijiahai Uplift is more complex. This may be related to the relatively small variations in coal seam thickness and sedimentary environments in the study area.</div><div class='html-p'>Furthermore, elements like the coal’s chemistry and structure have an impact on the gas content. Compared to the Xishanyao Formation, the Badawan Formation has a higher ash yield and lower porosity, resulting in an overall lower gas content.

Coal Rock Quality</h4><div class='html-p'>The vitrinite content in coal not only serves as the material for coalbed methane generation but also has the capacity to adsorb methane. Its content directly determines the ability of coal to adsorb gas. In the Baijiahai Uplift, the microcomponents of the Xishanyao and Badaowan formations are predominantly vitrinite, followed by inertinite, with a sporadic presence of liptinite, which overall favors gas generation. The vitrinite content and the total Langmuir volume exhibit a positive association, as seen in <a href="#processes-12-02671-f013" class="html-fig">Figure 13</a> in coal samples from the region of the Baijiahai Uplift [<a href="#B43-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">43</a>]. As the vitrinite content increases, the Langmuir volume also tends to increase, indicating that higher vitrinite content leads to greater gas adsorption. The vitrinite content in the Badaowan Formation’s coal samples is higher than that in the Xishanyao Formation’s samples.</div><div class='html-p'>Based on the experimental results, an analysis of the relationship between Langmuir volume and moisture and ash contents was carried out for samples in the research region.</div><div class='html-p'>The analysis shows that the Langmuir volume decreases with increasing moisture and ash contents, showing a negative correlation [<a href="#B44-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">44</a>]. This is primarily because the internal surface area available for adsorption in coal is limited and coal has a greater affinity for water than for methane. Therefore, excessive moisture in coal negatively impacts the gas adsorption capacity. The presence of ash primarily affects adsorption by blocking some of the coal’s pores, reducing its specific surface area and, consequently, its adsorptive capacity [<a href="#B45-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">45</a>,<a href="#B46-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">46</a>].</div></section><section id='sec5dot2dot4-processes-12-02671' type=''><h4 class='' data-nested='3'> 5.2.4.

Coalbed methane primarily exists in two forms: free gas and adsorbed gas. Adsorbed coalbed methane is mainly stored in the organic matter and pore surfaces within the coal, while free coalbed methane primarily accumulates in the pore–fracture spaces of the coal. Therefore, the amount of adsorbed coalbed methane is mainly influenced by the specific surface area of the coal [<a href="#B47-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">47</a>,<a href="#B48-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">48</a>], whereas the amount of free coalbed methane is primarily affected by the pore volume [<a href="#B49-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">49</a>,<a href="#B50-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">50</a>,<a href="#B51-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">51</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>Based on comprehensive low-pressure CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption, low-temperature N<sub>2</sub> adsorption, and high-pressure mercury intrusion experiments, the pore structure of coal samples from the Xishanyao Formation and the Badawan Formation in the Baijiahai Uplift was characterized at all scales (<a href="#processes-12-02671-t005" class="html-table">Table 5</a>). The findings show that the Xishanyao coal samples have a total pore volume ranging from 0.540 to 1.033 cm<sup>3</sup>/g. On average, it is 0.737 cm<sup>3</sup>/g. Among these, the average pore volume of micropores is 0.067 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, accounting for approximately 9.466% of the total pore volume. Mesopores contribute roughly 5.947% of the total pore volume, with an average of 0.042 cm<sup>3</sup>/g. Macroscopic pores have an average pore volume of 0.628 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, or roughly 84.586%. For the Badawan coal samples, the total pore volume is 0.059 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, with an average micropore volume of 0.035 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, which constitutes approximately 57.062% of the total pore volume, while the average macropore volume is 0.025 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, accounting for about 42.938%. Thus, the primary contributor to the pore volume in the Xishanyao coal samples is macropores, followed by micropores, with mesopores contributing the least. In contrast, the main contributor to the pore volume in the Badawan coal samples is micropores, followed by macropores.</div><div class='html-p'>With an average of 216.710 m<sup>2</sup>/g, the specific surface area of the coal samples from the Xishanyao Formation varies between 200.118 and 238.088 m<sup>2</sup>/g. Among these, the average specific surface area of micropores is 212.575 m<sup>2</sup>/g, accounting for approximately 98.027% of the total specific surface area. The average specific surface area of mesopores is 0.399 m<sup>2</sup>/g, representing about 0.185%, while the average specific surface area of macropores is 3.736 m<sup>2</sup>/g, contributing approximately 1.788%. For the Badaowan Formation’s coal samples, the specific surface area averages 107.393 m<sup>2</sup>/g, with a range of 98.598 to 114.241 m<sup>2</sup>/g. In this case, the micropores’ average specific surface area is 105.014 m<sup>2</sup>/g, or around 97.855% of the total specific surface area. The average specific surface area of the mesopores is 0.867 m<sup>2</sup>/g, contributing around 0.778%, while the average specific surface area of the macropores is 1.512 m<sup>2</sup>/g, accounting for approximately 1.367%. Thus, the primary contributor to the specific surface area in the Baijiahai Uplift is micropores, followed by macropores, with mesopores contributing the least.</div><div class='html-p'>As shown in <a href="#processes-12-02671-f014" class="html-fig">Figure 14</a>, within the Baijiahai Uplift, there are notable variations in the distribution of pore volume at various strata. The pore volume of the Xishanyao Formation’s coal samples is relatively well developed in both micropores and macropores, while the pore volume of the Badaowan Formation’s coal samples is predominantly developed in micropores. Generally, the micropore segment dominates the pore volume and exhibits a multi-peak characteristic. Micropores account for the majority of the specific surface area of the coal samples in the research area, and each coal sample’s specific surface area clearly decreases as pore width increases (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f015" class="html-fig">Figure 15</a>).</div><div class='html-p'>The complicated pore structure of coal, which has pores of different sizes and shapes, is probably the reason why <a href="#processes-12-02671-f016" class="html-fig">Figure 16</a> demonstrates that there is no discernible relationship between the adsorbed gas concentration and specific surface area. While a larger specific surface area typically indicates more surface area available for gas adsorption, the shape and distribution of micropores also influence gas adsorption capacity. Coal’s particular surface area and the interactions between gas molecules and the coal surface determine how much gas is adsorbed by the coal. Additionally, the ability of coal to adsorb methane depends on its physical and chemical properties, such as maturity, chemical composition, and structure. In summary, the lack of a significant correlation between the adsorbed gas content and the micropore-specific surface area may result from the complexity of micropore structures, the interactions between gas molecules and the coal surface, the effects of pore size, and various physical and chemical properties of the coal. Conversely, the macropore volume and the free gas content are clearly positively correlated. This is mainly due to the fact that the pore volume has a significant impact on the amount of free gas in coal; this is primarily because the free gas content in coal is largely influenced by the pore volume and larger pore volumes can accommodate more free gas. Coal has a dual pore structure as a porous and heterogeneous medium, with macropores and mesopores having larger throat diameters, serving as storage spaces and flow channels for free gas. In contrast, transitional pores and micropores have relatively smaller throat diameters and are more influenced by pore morphology and connectivity, making their corresponding pore volumes not directly equivalent to effective free gas storage.</div></section><section id='sec5dot2dot5-processes-12-02671' type=''><h4 class='' data-nested='3'> 5.2.5. Geological Structure</h4><div class='html-p'>Different geological structures have distinct characteristics. A trap is a location that can prevent oil and gas from continuing to migrate and allow them to accumulate, consisting of three main components: the reservoir layer, the cap rock, and the barriers that impede the migration of oil and gas. These barriers can be the bending and deformation of the cap rock itself, such as an anticline, or obstructions formed by faults or changes in rock types. Previous studies have categorized traps into four main types: structural traps, stratigraphic traps, lithological traps, and composite traps. As a key site for oil and gas accumulation, traps play a crucial role in hydrocarbon formation. Oil and gas can only be stored in a trap if the formation of the trap coincides with or precedes the time of hydrocarbon accumulation, making structure and trapping the primary controlling factors for accumulation.</div><div class='html-p'>A detailed 3D seismic interpretation in the study area shows that the Bajiahai Uplift predominantly features three faulted anticline traps (<a href="#processes-12-02671-t006" class="html-table">Table 6</a>). These traps are located near wells C39, C43, and C2 (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f017" class="html-fig">Figure 17</a>), covering a cumulative area of 13.62 km<sup>2</sup>, which contributes to the higher gas content near well C39 in the Badaowan Formation.</div><div class='html-p'>One of the most prevalent structural forms in geological tectonic movements is the fault, and their appearance disrupts the continuity of coal seams, playing an important role in controlling the localized accumulation of CBM [<a href="#B52-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">52</a>,<a href="#B53-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">53</a>,<a href="#B54-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">54</a>]. The control exerted by faults on CBM accumulation depends on various factors, including the mechanical properties of the faults, the lithology of the rocks on either side of the fault, the size of the fault, and the tectonic stress field [<a href="#B55-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">55</a>].</div><div class='html-p'>Faults can both constructively create barriers that seal and obstruct flow and destructively act as conduits for fluid movement [<a href="#B56-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">56</a>]. Throughout geological history, faults may develop well-permeable fracture zones, becoming pathways for the accumulation and concentration of coalbed methane. Such fault zones facilitate the lateral migration and enrichment of coalbed methane, resulting in a higher gas content near the faults. Conversely, laterally displaced faults may lead to gas leakage or loss; fractures and pores extending along the faults can cause coalbed methane to accumulate toward the fault zones while potentially escaping from these areas. These pathways may also compromise cap rock integrity, affecting the fault’s ability to trap coalbed methane and reducing gas content within the coal seams. Therefore, faults significantly influence the preservation and migration of coalbed methane.</div><div class='html-p'>Research indicates that reverse faults can impede gas flow and prevent gas escape, resulting in a higher coalbed methane content, while normal faults can act as conduits, facilitating gas release and leading to lower coalbed methane content. In the eastern part of the study area, the development of reverse faults is favorable for the preservation of coalbed methane [<a href="#B57-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">57</a>]. Seismic interpretation profiles of wells such as DN11, DN 18, C49, C504, C17, BJ3, and C32 show that both J<sub>2</sub>x and J<sub>1</sub>b have faults that connect to Triassic to Permian (T-P ) (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f018" class="html-fig">Figure 18</a>).

Roof Lithology and Thickness</h4><div class='html-p'>Sedimentary conditions govern the Junggar Basin’s Jurassic coal-bearing strata, with the primary coal seam’s roof consisting of both dense mudstone and coarse-grained sandstone. Coalbed gas is mainly stored in the coal seam in the form of adsorbed gas, and the gas-retaining and permeability characteristics of the surrounding rock directly affect the conditions for gas accumulation. Good cover conditions can slow down the loss of coalbed gas and indirectly suppress gas desorption, allowing the coal seam to achieve a higher gas content. The denser and thicker the roof and floor rocks are, the more favorable they are for the preservation of coalbed gas [<a href="#B58-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">58</a>]. The gas concentration of primary coal seams with mudstone or sandy mudstone as the roof should be higher than those with sandstone roofs because, generally speaking, these materials provide better sealing conditions than sandstone roofs [<a href="#B59-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">59</a>].

In wells C32, C36, and C39, the proportion of mudstone in the roof rock is significantly higher, resulting in a noticeably higher gas content, with a gas content exceeding 20 m<sup>3</sup>/t in these three wells. Furthermore, a greater thickness of the roof and floor rocks enhances the suppression of vertical gas escape, facilitating gas accumulation in the coal seam.</div><div class='html-p'>In contrast, the roof rock types of the Badaowan Formation in wells C19, C32, C34, C36, and C39 primarily consist of sandstone, mudstone, and conglomerate.

Sandstone and sandy mudstone make up a smaller proportion, around 26% (<a href="#processes-12-02671-f020" class="html-fig">Figure 20</a>). The higher percentage of mudstone provides an effective sealing effect for gas diffusion, which is beneficial for the accumulation and preservation of coalbed methane [<a href="#B60-processes-12-02671" class="html-bibr">60</a>].

Overall, both the Xishanyao and Badaowan formations have thick roof layers; however, the higher mudstone content in the Xishanyao Formation results in better sealing capabilities, leading to a higher gas content compared to the Badaowan Formation.</div></section></section></section><section id='sec6-processes-12-02671' type='conclusions'><h2 data-nested='1'> 6. Conclusions</h2><div class='html-p'>The gas content distribution and geological control factors of the Jurassic coal seams in the Baijiahai Uplift of the Junggar Basin were analyzed based on geological data and gas content simulation, leading to the following conclusions:</div><ul class='html-order'><li><div class='html-p'>The Jurassic coal seams in the Baijiahai Uplift are located at greater depths and have larger thicknesses. The microscopic components of the coal primarily consist of vitrinites, with inertinites being secondary. The Xishanyao Formation is characterized by very low total moisture, very low ash content, and medium volatile matter, while the Badaowan Formation’s coal samples exhibit very low total moisture, low ash content, and high volatile matter. The Xishanyao Formation shows well-developed micropores and macropores, whereas the Badaowan Formation has better developed micropores.</div></li><li><div class='html-p'>Overall, the gas content in the Jurassic coal seams of the Baijiahai Uplift is relatively high. The total gas content of the Xishanyao Formation ranges from 16.40 to 23.84 m<sup>3</sup>/t, while that of the Badaowan Formation ranges from 3.70 to 11.29 m<sup>3</sup>/t. The Xishanyao Formation displays a high southwest to low northeast gas content distribution, whereas the Badaowan Formation shows a high west to low east pattern. The gas presence in the Xishanyao Formation consists of both adsorbed gas and free gas, while the Badawan Formation primarily contains adsorbed gas, with the Xishanyao Formation exhibiting a higher gas content than the Badawan Formation.</div></li><li><div class='html-p'>The gas content of both the Xishanyao and Badaowan formations exhibits a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with depth. However, their correlation with coal seam thickness differs. The gas content of the Xishanyao Formation shows a positive correlation with coal seam thickness, while the Badaowan Formation does not exhibit a significant correlation, potentially due to the stability of the sedimentary environment and the structure and composition of the coal. The adsorption capacity of the Jurassic coal samples is positively correlated with the vitrinite content and negatively correlated with the moisture content and ash yield.</div></li><li><div class='html-p'>The Xishanyao Formation has well-developed micropores and macropores, with macropores providing a larger pore volume conducive to the retention of free gas. The specific surface area of both formations mainly derives from micropores, which is favorable for the presence of adsorbed gas. Structural conditions such as traps and faults also play an important role in gas accumulation in the coal seams. Additionally, the roof rock of both formations is primarily mudstone, with considerable thickness, effectively preventing gas escape. Notably, the mudstone content in the Xishanyao Formation is higher than that in the Badaowan Formation, contributing to its greater gas content.</div></li></ul></section> </div> <div class="html-back"> <section class='html-notes'><h2 >Author Contributions</h2><div class='html-p'>Conceptualization, B.L., H.W. and B.S.; methodology, B.L., H.W. and Z.O.; validation, B.L. and Z.O.; formal analysis, B.L. and M.Y.; investigation, B.L. and H.W.; resources, B.S.; data curation, Y.W. and X.Z.; writing—original draft preparation, B.L.; writing—review and editing, H.W.; supervision, H.W.; project administration, H.W.; funding acquisition, H.W. and B.S.
