The frequency and intensity of rockburst in underground engineering have increased with
excavation depth. In order to predict rockburst intensity grade, this paper introduces six …

Low-frequency seismic events of long duration were recorded by a surface array of 48, 3-
component geophones during the fracture stimulation of two offset horizontal wells in the …

An in-depth study of the impact of hydraulic fracturing operations on the Marcellus shale
formation and overburden is presented by analyzing a unique timelapse crosswell seismic …

Cross-well tomography as a technology is the bridge between spatially detailed wellbore
measurements and regional 3D reflection seismic surveys. Repeat cross-well tomography, if …

Using an innovative workflow incorporating microseismic attributes and geomechanical well
logs, we have defined major geomechanical drivers of microseismic expression to …

Abstract Evaluation of hydraulic fracturing relies on indirect inference from measurements
that are distorted by distance and noise of various kinds, so reservoir monitoring technology …

Using an innovative workflow incorporating microseismic attributes and geomechanical well
logs, we have defined major geomechanical drivers of microseismic expression to …

Hydraulic fracturing involves the injection of large amount of fluid, typically water, in the
reservoir rock that increases fluid pressure in the pore spaces and alters the stress condition …

Reservoir monitoring of hydraulic fracturing plays an important role in both assessing risks
and enhancing production from tight hydrocarbon reservoirs that otherwise would not …

The effectiveness of hydraulic-fracturing completions in a tight-oil play is investigated by
detailed interpretation of microseismicity. The microseismic programs were acquired in the …
