There are huge coalbed methane reserves existing in our country. These CBM reservoirs have the characteristics of low pressure
low saturation
low permeability
high heterogeneity and complex reservoir structure
with the easily broken coal rocks.The technology of the pore-creating by the hydraulic jet can avoid the collapse of the coal bed
eliminate the compaction effect caused by the conventional perforation and break the coal petrography to promote the permeability of the reservoir. By the study of the large physical models
the conclusion was that the bore diameter increases by the increasing of the nozzle diameter. The abrasive concentration and the pore diameter increases but the bore depth decreases after the increasing and the pumping pressure and the bole depth increase. Finally
the operation parameters were optimized
that is
the pumping pressure is 25 MPa
the nozzle diameter is 4 mm and the abrasive concentration is 6.6 %. These parameters are helpful for the parameter design of the site construction.
