Sequence Stratigraphy and Architecture of Lower Pennsylvanian Strata, Southern West Virginia: Potential for Carbon Sequestration and Enhanced Coal-Bed Methane Recovery in the Pocahontas Basin

Sequence Stratigraphy and Architecture of Lower Pennsylvanian Strata, Southern West Virginia: Potential for Carbon Sequestration and Enhanced Coal-Bed Methane Recovery in the Pocahontas Basin

Carbon dioxide sequestration in coal-bed methane fields has potential to add significant recoverable reserves and extend the production life of coal-bed methane fields while at the same time providing a geologic sink for atmospheric greenhouse gases. The ability to relate the thickness, extent, and...
