Exploration and Mining Consultants

Coal Seam Gas

Detailed lithological logging of core is performed at the wellsite. Brightness logging and coal quality sampling occurs in the laboratory.

Desorbed gas measurements are taken regularly in our climate controlled field Laboratory.

GeoConsult Global Ltd has provided comprehensive consultancy services in the field of Coal Seam Gas, Gas Drainage and Petroleum throughout Australia and the Pacific region since June 1994. Our involvement in an extensive number and variety of projects has ranged from coal seam gas desorption to resource and reservoir evaluation.

Our staff are experienced professionals supported by the latest testing and analytical instrumentation and computing facilities.
This combination results in a confident and comprehensive technical understanding of projects, leading to a hight level of credibility in our recommendations, and to practical and cost effective outcomes for our clients.
