Aiming at the safety distance between coal mining working face and natural gas wells in the cross-mining area of multiple mineral resources, the cross- mining area of gas and coal resources in the Ordos Basin is taken as the engineering background. An anti-collision early warning technology method based on vibration wave propagation attenuation monitoring is proposed to prevent collision accidents between road headers and natural gas wells. Through the steel pipe and steel pipe concrete knocking vibration test and underground digging vibration test, the research results show that: The exponential decay coefficients of the vibration wave in steel pipe, steel pipe concrete and coal rock respectively are 0.1, 0.1140 and 0.03, which are all in accordance with the exponential decay law, and the vibration wave firstly decays sharply and then decays slowly; the formula for the distance from the road header to the natural gas well was derived based on the vibration attenuation formula, to provide a new method for realizing the problem of precise and coordinated extraction by surface monitoring of the distance from down hole road headers to gas wells, collision prevention prediction and warning and prevention of collision of extraction equipment with gas wells.
