Competitive Landscape and Production Forecasts to 2020” Report at US$ 3995 (Single User
License). The report got published in Jan 2013 & Contains 59 Pages.
“Coal Bed Methane in North America – Market Analysis, Competitive Landscape and Production Forecasts to
2020″ is the latest report from industry analysis specialists GlobalData, offering comprehensive information
on the North American Coal Bed Methane (CBM) market, covering the US, Canada and Mexico. CBM is a
key source of unconventional gas. Naturally occurring methane gas in coal seams has characteristics similar
to those of conventional natural gas, and can therefore be used for similar applications. The report is
compiled using data and information sourced from proprietary databases, primary and secondary research,
and in-house analysis, carried out by GlobalData’s team of industry experts.
Scope
This report provides detailed information and analysis of the CBM market in the US, Canada and Mexico. The
report focuses primarily on -
 Key growth drivers and challenges for the development of CBM resources in the North American
market
 CBM exploration basins and major companies engaged in CBM exploration and production in
several US states
 Projected CBM production by 2020 for the US and Canada
 Overview of CBM scenario in the US including reserves, production and major basins with brief
coverage of regulations
 Overview of CBM scenario in Canada including reserves, production, CBM activities in different
states and projected production
 Discussion of coal industry in Mexico including major CBM basins and coal mine methane projects
