How does Composite access the Deep Coal Beds?
Composite accesses the deep coal beds by first drilling vertical bore holes, and then finishing with horizontal extended reach bore holes. Composite’s drillers are able to ‘steer the drill bit horizontally through the coal seams to optimize the location of the borehole through the coal. From one drill location, a number of horizontal reach boreholes can be drilled – minimizing the need for multiple drill location and facilitating the collection of methane.
