Numerical investigation of the potential contamination of a shallow aquifer in producing coalbed methane

This paper presents a study on the impact of well integrity failure on coalbed methane (also known as coal seam gas) production and potential shallow water contamination using numerical simulations with a finite-difference method. Two connection types and 12 cases were simulated: Type A – leakage th...
