Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is a technique that is used for extracting petroleum resources from
impermeable host rocks. In this process, fluid injected under high pressure causes fractures …

Volatile markets and harsh locations and downhole conditions pose severe challenges for
ensuring safe and long-lasting intact well conditions. Well integrity is a crucial issue in the …

Due to the deep socioeconomic implications, induced seismicity is a timely and increasingly
relevant topic of interest for the general public. Cases of induced seismicity have a global …

During the past decades, significant progress has been made in the development of induced
seismicity monitoring for related human activities. Hydraulic fracturing and induced …

Wastewater disposal in the central US is likely responsible for an unprecedented surge in
earthquake activity. Much of this activity is thought to be driven by induced pore pressure …

The ability of fluid-generated subsurface stress changes to trigger earthquakes has long
been recognized. However, the dramatic rise in the rate of human-induced earthquakes in …

The sharp rise in Oklahoma seismicity since 2009 is due to wastewater injection. The role of
injection depth is an open, complex issue, yet critical for hazard assessment and regulation …

Reinjection of saltwater, co-produced with oil, triggered thousands of widely felt and several
damaging earthquakes in Oklahoma and Kansas. The future seismic hazard remains …

Abstract The 3 September 2016, Mw 5.8 Pawnee earthquake was the largest recorded
earthquake in the state of Oklahoma. Seismic and geodetic observations of the Pawnee …

We produce a one‐year 2017 seismic‐hazard forecast for the central and eastern United
States from induced and natural earthquakes that updates the 2016 one‐year forecast; this …
