Interaction mechanism and development suggestions for the full cycle construction effect of surface horizontal wells in unmined coal mines by Zhainan ZHANG, Ke YANG, Xinzhu HUA, Chunhui YE, Min YE, Wenjie LIU, Xiaolou CHI, Xin LYU

“…The backflow rate of ZJ2−1 well is relatively high and greater than 1, indicating the invasion of adjacent water sources, resulting in poor gas production of ZJ2−1 well with better fracturing effect. Finally, the key issues in the gas control process of surface horizontal wells in unmined areas of coal mines were summarized from the perspectives of optimal selection of surface horizontal well gas control technology, precise control of drilling trajectory, stability control of wellbore, optimization of drainage system, and detection of water storage environment. …”
