ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are disclosed for continually and intermittently removing water from a wellbore which penetrates a solid carbonaceous subterranean formation, such as a coalbed, while concurrently removing methane from the formation. The apparatus utilizes a linear access means which facilitates switching the apparatus from a continuous water removal mode of operation to an intermittent water removal mode of operation using wireline retrievable tools.
