  • Patent number: 11268377
    Abstract: Disclosed are a measurement-while-drilling method and device for obtaining a coal seam gas parameter applicable to measurement of a coal seam gas/coal seam methane parameter while drilling and evaluation of gas drainage performance. The invention performs a measurement-while-drilling operation to obtain information about downhole gas and a coal seam, thereby realizing on-site measurement of a coal seam gas parameter while drilling. The measurement-while-drilling device for obtaining a coal seam gas parameter comprises a compartment (17), a pressure sensor (15), a temperature sensor (14), a flow sensor (4), an acoustic emission sensor (16), a monitoring and control module (11), a power module and a communication module. The device is installed between a drill bit (1) and a first drill pipe (20).

  • Patent number: 10947842
    Abstract: A measurement-while-drilling method and device assesses outburst risk and evaluates gas drainage performance of a coal seam. The device includes a compartment, a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, a flow sensor, an electromagnetic sensor, an acoustic sensor, a wave velocity measurement module, a monitoring and control module, a power supply and a communication interface. These are installed between a drill bit and an inclinometer or a first drill pipe. Measurements are performed while drilling to obtain a real time gas parameter, lithologic and coal seam information, for on-site assessment of outburst risk. During drill bit replacement, gas pressure, temperature, flow velocity, wave velocity, electromagnetic radiation, and an acoustic signal are recorded in real time, to calculate stress of the coal seam and coal seam outburst risk. On-site measurement is done while drilling without sampling and can use multiple parameters to perform synchronous measurement to obtain a comprehensive evaluation.
