Optimization of Drilling Parameters in Influence Area of Gas−Solid Interaction during Parallel Drilling Hole

Previous studies have established that the selection of gas extraction borehole parameters is crucial for the effectiveness of gas extraction. To more accurately determine the reasonable extraction radius of gas extraction boreholes in the coal seam, this study was based on the actual occurrence conditions of the coal body. A coal-seam gas-seepage model, considering dynamic changes in permeability under gas−solid coupling conditions, was constructed. It was combined with FLAC3D numerical simulations to develop a borehole extraction model closer to the field’s natural needs. The study revealed the influence of borehole diameter and spacing on gas extraction, obtained the radius of effect of borehole extraction, and optimized the gas extraction borehole parameters based on data simulation experiments. Multiple sets of experimental results indicated that the optimal parameters are a borehole diameter of φ = 113 mm and a borehole spacing of 5 m. Applying these parameters in on-site tests at the 14,303 working faces of a particular mine significantly improved gas extraction efficiency, with a 29.7% increase in gas extraction concentration. This verified the accuracy of the simulation results and provides a scientific basis for cost reduction and efficiency enhancement in wellbore mining.
