Abstract
CBM is one of the most promising source of unconventional hydrocarbon. The following chapter is aimed to develop a primary understanding of coal bed methane. It will include its history, generation mechanism, coal assessment for CBM storage, production, composition of coal bed methane and finally its future in India.
