NOVELTY - A coal bed gas is produced by injecting a coal bed stimulation gas to the coal bed through the production well(s), and removing the desorbed coal bed gas from the coal bed through the production well(s).    USE - For producing coal bed gas from solid subterranean formations including coal beds.    ADVANTAGE - The method results to increase gas production and decrease water production. It avoids contamination of the produced coal bed gas with excessive amount of stimulation gas, and unintended alteration of the coal bed structure. It is simple, economical, and time efficient. It eliminates many of the expensive features of the prior art, thus allowing coal bed gas to be produced at lower cost.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Production of coal bed gas involves:    (a) locating a coal bed having a coal bed gas sorbed to coal;    (b) establishing production well(s) communicating with the coal bed;    (c) establishing water confinement well(s) communicating with the coal bed at a distance from the production well(s);    (d) injecting a coal bed stimulation gas to the coal bed through the production well;    (e) displacing water in the coal bed surrounding the production well with the coal bed stimulation gas;    (f) establishing a water displacement perimeter surrounding the production well(s);    (g) stimulating the coal bed within the water displacement perimeter with the stimulation gas;    (h) desorbing the coal bed gas sorbed to the coal bed;    (i) confining the water displaced from the coal bed; and    (j) removing the desorbed coal bed gas from the coal bed through the production well(s).    An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for an apparatus for coal bed gas production including:    (a) a coal bed;    (b) coal bed gas desorbed to the coal bed;    (c) production well(s);    (d) desorbed coal bed gas from coal bed having calculated gas desorption rate;    (e) desorbed coal bed gas removal system having a coal bed gas removal rate which is never less than the coaled gas desorption rate;    (f) production well coupling element responsive to the desorbed gas removal element and the production well; and    (g) coal bed gas removed from the coal bed gas reservoir.
