Coal Mine Methane Services

Coal Mine Methane Services (CMMS) provides practical solutions for coal mine owners and operators worldwide, enabling them to deal with surface and subsurface gas related issues. The result is a clear improvement in the safety and productivity of our clients' coal mines.

In addition to these benefits provided by CMMS, an effective and well-functioning coal mine degasification system is central to the long-term utilisation of coal mine gas. Such gas can be used for heating; producing heated industrial water as well as generating combined electricity and heat through CHP plants, with the associated environmental and cost saving benefits.

CMMS offers bespoke and integrated gas management solutions, which are tailored to a coal mine's specific needs. Our work includes dealing with local regulations and focuses on developing mutually beneficial relationships with coal mines. The services we offer range from effective gas drainage practices to enabling the production of high quality mine gas at the surface.

We can successfully handle projects of significant size and scope. This is based on over 40 years of experience in gas drainage drilling, solving coal & gas outbursts, designing and fine-tuning degasification systems. Added to this, we have a 20 year track record in heat and power generation. Our team of coal mining engineers and other specialists have the experience and knowledge to respond quickly to clients, with appropriate and cost effective solutions.
