The market is likely to register a healthy CAGR of 6.19% during the forecasted period.

The experience and innovation procured in the U.S. could be promptly applied across the globe. Australia is the most promising market for the CBM, where CBM or coal seam gas is a remarkable source to cater the demand for liquid natural gas in the market. Demand for liquid natural gas is expected to rise in the Asia-Pacific region due to the shifting of the growth to CBM as an alternative. Emerging economies such as Russia, India, and China have critical CBM stores that are likely to gain a growth in extraction by the year 2019.
