Coal Bed Methane Market Overview


The Coal Bed Methane Market is projected to grow from USD 18,345.3 Million in 2022 to USD 32,390.49 Million by 2030, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% during the forecast period (2022 - 2030). 

 

Coal bed methane (CBM) is the main part of the market analysis and can be understood as the natural gas found in most coal deposits. It is created during the coalification process where plant material is converted into coal over a period of millions of years. In addition, CBM consists of the best options rendered by pure methane, which is a clean-burning fuel. It contains lesser impurities and requires minimal processing. It is more eco-friendly than oil, coal, or even conventional natural gas.

Coal Bed Methane Market  COVID 19 Analysis


The global emergence of the novel coronavirus pandemic has had its effect on the growth potential of the coal bed methane market share for the forecast period of 2022-2030 followed by the pandemic year of 2020. Since the rate of pandemic and infection spread was high, there was an urgent need for strict rules for the market and global governments to impose strict regulations and implications that would limit social gatherings and hence, bring down the positivity rate of the virus.

 

However, to help increase the projected coal bed methane market revenue during the ongoing forecast period of 2022-2030, the government authorities and global players in the market have been increasing their investment in the development of various products and services that will help in portfolio enhancement and enhancing the chances of both the regional and international market players to grow at an excellent rate while conducting the global market operations by the end of the forecast period in 2030.


Market Dynamics

Drivers


The global growth of the coal bed methane market size is a result of various factors acting as drivers for the market during the forecast period that will be ending in 2030. There are multiple sources that help in carrying out the kind of production that suit the needs of users that belong to a huge variety of applications, segments, and industries. The reduction in methane emissions is associated with conventional fuels and coal mining, followed by the lower price of CBM compared to other unconventional natural gases, and the generation of direct and indirect employment in the extraction of CBM drives the growth of the global Coal Bed Methane market.

Restraints


But, one major factor that might restrain the market from increasing its revenue during the forecast period of 2022-2030 is the high cost associated with production followed by a constant source to spread fruitful and qualitative awareness amongst the target audience regarding the functions and market services.

Recent Developments



  • The U.S. region, as a part of North America, contributes to the larger part of current CBM extraction and has developing generation potential globally. The high degree of innovation and experience procured in the U.S. region could be promptly applied globally. A standout among the most encouraging markets is the Australian region, where CBM, or coal seam gas (CSG), is a noteworthy source for satisfying liquid natural gas (LNG) demand. The coal bed methane market trends suggest that there has been a demand for LNG that is expected to rise in the adjacent Asia-Pacific markets, transferring the growth to CBM as a substitute. India, China, and Russia have critical market stores, which are estimated to gain a surge in extraction by 2017.

  • In 2016, the power generation segment of the global CBM market in terms of revenue had accounted for around one-third share of the global coal bed methane market. In terms of volume, the power generation segment had accounted for approximately 30% share of the overall market. Power generation is emerging as the most lucrative segment for investment in the global CBM market, and the main reason behind this is the demand for natural gas in various end-user industries. Thus, the global market segment is anticipated to show a high growth rate and significant return on investment for stakeholders due to its notable revenue contribution.

  • ON Janaury 2022, Tata Steel initiates a ‘first-of-its-kind in the world’ trial for continuous injection of Coal Bed Methane (CBM) in Blast Furnace to reduce emissions. This process is expected to reduce coke rate by 10 kg/thm, which will be equivalent to reducing 33 kg of CO2 per tonne of crude steel. The trial has to be planned in first week of february 2022.
