As a low-carbon and clean energy source, Coalbed methane (CBM) is of great significance in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, optimizing the energy structure, safeguarding mine safety, and promoting the transformation to a green economy to achieve sustainable development. Coalbed methane (CBM) in Xinjiang’s steeply dipping coal seams is abundant but difficult to predict due to complex geology and distinct gas flow behaviors, making traditional methods ineffective. This study proposes GCN-BiGRU, a parallel dual-module model integrating seepage mechanics, reservoir engineering, geological structures, and production history. The GCN module models wells as nodes, using geological attributes and spatial distances to capture inter-well interference; the BiGRU module extracts temporal dependencies from production sequences. An adaptive fusion mechanism dynamically combines spatiotemporal features for robust prediction. Validated on Baiyanghe block data, the model achieved MAE 59.04, RMSE 94.25, and improved accuracy from 64.47% to 92.8% as training wells increased from 20 to 84. It also showed strong transferability to independent sub-regions, enabling real-time prediction and scenario analysis for CBM development and reservoir management.
