Gas composition testing

Gas composition testing forms part of the standard gas content testing suite, with samples taken for gas analysis during the Q2 and Q3 stages of gas content testing. Helium flushing is used to overcome reporting of excess nitrogen due to coal oxidation.

We also offer gas composition analysis of samples from general body airways, in-seam boreholes, surface to seam boreholes and gas drainage ranges.

We use state-of-the-art Varian CP-4900 gas chromatographs in our two laboratories (for more information about all our services, contact GeoGAS).
