Coal is a black or brownishblack sedimentary rock that can be burned for fuel and used to generate is composed mostly of carbon and hydrocarbons, which contain energy that can be released through combustion (burning). Coal is the largest source of energy for generating electricity in the world, and the most abundant fossil fuel in the United States.

In the process of coal bed methane (CBM) production, the output of CBM is mainly related to the relative permeability of gas and water in coal seams. However, during the drilling process, the invasion of drilling fluid into CBM reservoirs changes the wettability, which may cause the gas and water's redistribution through the pores and cracks, further changing their twophase seepage ...
