Coal Bed Methane Market Scope
Coal bed methane (CBM), an unconventional source natural gas, is naturally produced during the geologic process of converting plant material to coal (coalification). CBM has considerable potential as an abundant clean energy supply, to help replace other diminishing hydrocarbon reserves. For instance, India has the fifth largest proven coal reserves in the world and thus holds significant prospects for exploration and exploitation of CBM.
According to AMA, the Global Coal Bed Methane market is expected to see growth rate of 1.9%

About Approach
The research aims to propose a patent-based approach in searching for potential technology partners as a supporting tool for enabling open innovation. The study also proposes a systematic searching process of technology partners as a
preliminary step to select the emerging and key players that are involved in implementing market estimations. While patent analysis is employed to overcome the aforementioned data- and process-related limitations, as expenses occurred in that technology allows us to estimate the market size by evolving segments as target market from total available market.
Segmentation Overview
The study have segmented the market of Global Coal Bed Methane market , by Application (Power Generation, Industrial Utilisation, Residential Utilisation, Commercial Utilisation and Transportation) and Region with country level break-up.
On the basis of geography, the market of Coal Bed Methane has been segmented into South America (Brazil, Argentina, Rest of South America), Asia Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Europe (Germany, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Rest of Europe), MEA (Middle East, Africa), North America (United States, Canada, Mexico).
The United Kingdom government owns the methane associated with coal and regulates the rights to the gas. The government passes its ownership to the licensee when methane is recovered. According to the United Kingdom department for business enterprise and regulatory reform, mine gas is considered a petroleum product, thus the regulation of rights did not rest with the Coal Authority.
