6. A method for collecting and removing fluid from underground fluid deposits, the method comprising:

drilling a first, substantially vertical well;

drilling a substantially horizontal well with at least one main bore from the first substantially vertical well;

drilling a plurality of branches in the substantially horizontal plane from the main bore;

drilling a second, substantially vertical well at the vicinity of the main bore or a branch, wherein the minimum distance between the second well and the branch or the main bore is about 1 inch to about 100 feet, wherein the bottom of the second well is deeper than all the main bores and branches.

7. The method in claim 6 , wherein the horizontal distance between the second well and the vertical section of the first well ranges from 300 feet to 4000 feet.

8. The method in claim 6 , farther comprising:

fracturing the strata between the second well, and the branch or the main bore.

9. A well system for underground fluid collection and removal, the system comprising:

a first well having a substantially vertical section and a substantially horizontal section;

wherein the substantially horizontal section comprises at least one main bore and a plurality of branches;

wherein the main bore further has a C-branch;

a second well having a substantially vertical section wherein the bottom of the second well is lower than any main bores or branches;

wherein the C-branch inclines downward towards the second well and terminates at the vicinity of the second well.

10. The well system in claim 9 , wherein the C-branch connects to the second well.

11. The well system in claim 9 , wherein the minimum distance d between the C-branch and the second well is greater than zero.

12. The well system in claim 11 , wherein the minimum distance d ranges from 1 inch to 100 feet.

13. The well system in claim 9 , wherein the first well and the second well are in a coal field, and wherein substantially all main bores and branches of the horizontal section are in a coal seam except the C-branch.

14. The well in claim 9 , wherein the horizontal distance between the vertical section of the first well and the second well ranges from 300 ft to 4000 ft.

15. The well system in claim 9 , further comprising:

a third well having a substantially vertical section and a substantially horizontal section;

wherein the substantially horizontal section comprising at least one main bore and a plurality of branches;

wherein the main bore further has a second C-branch;

wherein the second C-branch inclines downward towards the second well and terminates at the vicinity of the second well.

16. The well system in claim 15 , wherein the first well, the second well and the third well are in a coal field, and wherein substantially all main bores and branches of the horizontal section are in a coal seam except the C-branch and the second C-branch.

17. The well in claim 15 , wherein the horizontal distance between the vertical section of the third well and the second well ranges from 300 ft to 4000 ft.

18. A method for collecting and removing fluid from underground deposits, the method comprising:

drilling a first, substantially vertical well;

drilling a substantially horizontal well with at least one main bore from the first substantially vertical well;

drilling a plurality of branches in the horizontal plane from a main bore;

drilling a second, substantially vertical well deeper than all the main bores and branches of the horizontal well; and

drilling a C-branch from the main bore towards the second well,

wherein the C-branch intersects the second well.

19. The method in claim 18 , wherein the distance between the first well and the second well ranges from about 300 feet to about 4000 feet.

20. The method in claim 18 , further comprising removing fluid from the second well.

21. The method in claim 20 , wherein the fluid removed from the second well is water or gas.

22. A method for collecting and removing fluid from underground deposits, the method comprising:

drilling a first, substantially vertical well;

drilling a substantially horizontal well with at least one main bore from the first substantially vertical well;

drilling a plurality of branches in the horizontal plane from a main bore;

drilling a second, substantially vertical well deeper than all the main bores and branches of the horizontal well; and

drilling a C-branch from the main bore towards the second well,

wherein the C-branch terminates at a distance d from the second well.

23. The method in claim 22 , farther comprising removing fluid from the second well.

24. The method in claim 23 , wherein the fluid removed from the second well is water or gas.

25. The method in claim 20 , wherein the distance between the first well and the second well ranges from about 300 feet to about 4000 feet.
