Liu et al. (2016) found lower permeability from the well test in the coals from a greater depth than the shallower ones in the southern Qinshui Basin, China. A modeling study by Olufemi et al. (2004) has found that relative permeability is the most influencing parameter for gas production for the ECBM project, especially at the early stages.
