Embodiment 2 adopts pinniform branch horizontal drilling technology to accelerate coal bed gas extraction speed, utilize Multilateral Wells technology to link up natural crack, coal seam and hugger simultaneously, increase coal seam bare area, be conducive to the carrying out of follow-up gasification, the present embodiment is described with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5.Fig. 4 is according to the schematic diagram of a kind of coal bed gas of the present invention and the common mining method of coal, wherein adopts pinniform branch horizontal drilling technology extraction coal bed gas; Fig. 5 is according to the schematic diagram of this coal bed gas and the common mining method of coal, is specifically implemented as follows:
By ground 2, via overlying rock 3, in coal seam 1, construct vertical drilling as going out gas drilling hole 6, apart from going out construction air inlet in gas drilling hole 6 certain distance scopes (with reference to embodiment 1), holing 5, make to hole and 56 in coal seam, be communicated with boring, air inlet boring 5 is pinniform horizontal drilling, comprise some groups of pinniform branch horizontal wells 14, foot of hole is arranged in the coal seam 1 of pre-gasification.The quantity of the main horizontal well of pinniform branch horizontal well, aperture, length and the Multilateral Wells of Multilateral Wells, according to coal seam and coal-bed gas exploitation area definition.In order to prevent that the borehole wall from subsiding, also can in main horizontal well, be lowered to screen casing and carry out supporting.
Pinniform horizontal drilling completes after construction, in going out gas drilling hole 6, transfers the bar pump that draws water, and line 9 and coal bed gas pipeline 10 fix a drainpipe; Air inlet 5 well heads of holing are installed O
2pipeline 7, CO
2pipeline 8, closes out the valve that is communicated with of gas drilling hole 6 and 10 of gas-pipe lines, by air inlet boring 5, to coal seam, 1 injects continuously high pressure N
2, injection pressure is not more than coal seam fracture pressure, and total injection determines according to coal seam saturated air content, treats N
2after total injection rate meets the demands, stop injecting, close air inlet boring 5, and close the stewing well of venthole 10~20 days, to guarantee N
2the CH that fully contacts with coal seam, adsorbs in displacement coal seam
4; Reopen out afterwards gas drilling hole 6, and carry out pump drainage by 9 pairs of coal seam waters of flowing line, with to coal seam 1 dehydration, open coal bed gas pipeline 10 simultaneously and reduce and gas drilling hole 6 pressure, be beneficial to coal bed gas desorb or desorption, and be collected into surface pipeline network by coal bed gas pipeline 10.After extraction a period of time, after going out gas drilling hole 6 pressure of the hole in the bottom and being down to below 10kPa, carry out injection and the extraction of next circulation.
CH in going out gas drilling hole 6 gases
4obviously reducing after (volumetric concentration is less than 5%) appears in content, opens out gas drilling hole 6, proposes flowing line 9, and gas-pipe line 13 is installed.Open out afterwards the valve that is communicated with of gas drilling hole 6 and 13 of gas-pipe lines, and to coal seam, 1 continue to inject high pressure CO by air inlet boring 5
2, injection pressure is greater than coal seam hydrostatic pressure, and injection rate is according to coal seam moisture content, and discharged by gas-pipe line 13, so that the moisture in coal seam between boring is taken out of, is drainage coal seam moisture, uses gas drilling hole 6 hole ground coal layers and keeps dry.
By O
2the pure oxygen that pipeline 7 is sent here, CO
2the CO that pipeline 8 is sent here
2, in air inlet, holing, to be made into volumetric concentration be 20~30% CO in 5 interior mixing
2oxygen enrichment, as gasifying agent, is sent into out gas drilling hole 6 hole ground coal layers along being communicated with crack 4.Monitor afterwards the methane content of venthole, control the content of oxygen in air inlet, guarantee out gas drilling hole O
2concentration is not within the scope of methane explosion limit.O
2after concentration or methane content meet the demands, open out the valve that is communicated with of gas drilling hole 6 and 13 of gas-pipe lines, at the bottom of going out gas drilling hole 6 holes, drop into red-hot coke, the injected volume of coke is determined according to coal seam thickness, casing size, coal seam ignition point etc., use gas drilling hole 6 hole ground coal layers and light, set up initial flame range 11.Gasifying agent and coal seam 1 raw gas generating that reacts is discharged via gas-pipe line 13, controls CO
2oxygen enrichment flow makes flame range temperature be not less than spontaneous combustion of coal seam ignition temperature
After flame range temperature surpasses 1000 ℃, if when admission pressure fall surpasses 10%, with each 300~500Nm
3/ h increases CO
2oxygen enrichment flow, until flow reaches 3000~5000Nm
3between/h.So that burning things which may cause a fire disaster is in face of CO
2oxygen-enriched stream direction moves to air inlet boring direction, due to CO
2oxygen enrichment reacts with coal seam generating gasification, pyrolytic reaction:

Along being communicated with crack 4 and part coal bed gas being melted, expanded connection crack, form gradually gasification tunnel 12, be beneficial to coal gas and discharge; The heat simultaneously discharging is delivered in coal seam, promotes CH
4desorb, and dry coal seam increase gas permeability of coal seam, the methane after desorb and gasification gas, pyrolysis coal gas are in the lump by going out gas drilling hole 6 and gas-pipe line 13 discharges.
Maintain afterwards this flow and carry out reverse combustion (that is the propagation direction of flame front is contrary with the flow direction that feeds gas), and the pressure of Real-Time Monitoring air inlet boring 5.When air inlet, hole the shown pressure of pressure meter that 5 upper ends connect while there is significantly reducing (the pressure range of decrease be generally initial pressure 10~60%), show that initial flame range 11 extends near air inlet holes at the bottom of 5 holes.When air inlet boring 5 is when going out gas drilling hole 6 pressure and be more or less the same (differential pressure is less than 0.3MPa), show: the lower end of air inlet boring 5 and the gasification tunnel 12 going out between the lower end of gas drilling hole 6 successfully construct.
Gasification tunnel 12 completes after structure, increases from the air inlet CO that 5 upper ends supply with to down-hole that holes
2the oxygen concentration of oxygen rich gas (increasing by 2~5% every day) to improve reaction zone temperature, and is carried out forward gasification (that is, the propagation direction of flame front with to feed flowing to of gas identical), assurance CO to 50~70%
2with the abundant haptoreaction in coal seam red-hot in gasification tunnel, to complete the gasification in coal seam between boring, because gasification space expands, geostatic stress effect manifests simultaneously, and under the acting in conjunction of heat effect, the coal seam of gasification tunnel periphery produces zone of fracture, accelerates coal bed gas and discharges.Specifically, according to coal seam dirt band thickness, water content, the situations such as the spacing of wells, to CO
2oxygen rich gas flow and/or oxygen concentration are adjusted.
The gasification gas of producing in the present invention, pyrolysis coal gas and coal bed gas are through going out after gas drilling hole discharge, for methane-generating.
