Abstract
Abstract—Adsorption of methane gas is affected by coal 
facies, as a consideration when exploring Coal Bed Methane 
(CBM). The Binuang area located in South Kalimantan is 
an area where coal carrier formations, namely the Warukin 
Formation and the Tanjung Formation, are well exposed. 
Sampling of coal was carried out using a channel sampling 
method from the youngest coal in the Warukin Formation 
to the oldest coal in the Tanjung Formation. The 
methodology applied in this research uses mineral analysis 
and adsorption of methane gas to find out the coal facies 
using a diagram conducted by previous researchers. There 
are two types of coal facies in the Warukin Formation, 
namely coal facies delta plain wet forest swamp and delta 
plain fen. In Tanjung formation, the coal facies that 
develops is delta plain wet forest swamp and delta plain fen.
Changes in coal facies will cause the different ability of 
methane gas adsorption. Coal with a depositional 
environment (facies) of Delta wet plain swamp has more 
excellent adsorption of methane compared to adsorption of 
methane gas in delta plain fen facies.
