FIELD: gas extractive industry.
SUBSTANCE: method includes extraction of resource by mechanical drilling and extraction of slurry and rock pieces through well. Gas extraction is performed by horizontal drilling with washing and back expansion, with concurrent cleaning and separation of fresh extracted mixture and accumulation of gas. Delivery of expander of ultra-large working size to expansion place is performed through well subjected for backward expansion. Pressure, temperature and composition of washing liquid is adjusted in such a way, that free natural gas, freed during mechanical drilling, was dissolved in drilling mud and separated from it only after passing of separator through rotating preventer. Expander in form of rocker with cutters is used, expanding well diameter up to ten meters and more.
EFFECT: higher efficiency.
