Movers and Shakers: Stock Market Response to Induced Seismicity in Oil and Gas Business
Energies, 2021 Investors increasingly need to account for concerns about non-financial performance and to consider the environmental impact of fossil fuel investment. We analyze how financial investors appreciate induced seismicity in oil and gas fields in the US and ...

Global physics-based database of injection-induced seismicity [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2023 Fluid injection into geological formations for energy resource development frequently induces (micro)seismicity. Moderate- to large-magnitude induced earthquakes may cause injuries and/or economic loss, with the consequence of jeopardizing the operation ...

Induced Seismicity Reduces Seismic Hazard? [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 AbstractEarthquakes caused by human activities have been observed for decades. Often these are related to industrial activities pumping fluids into deep geologic formations, like with wastewater disposal. The simplest theory connecting these processes to earthquakes is straightforward: injection leads to fluid pressure changes that either reduce the ...

Hydraulic Fracturing‐Induced Seismicity [PDF]
Reviews of Geophysics, 2020 AbstractHydraulic 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 to propagate. This technique has been transformative for the hydrocarbon industry, unlocking otherwise stranded resources; however, environmental concerns make

Deep Well Injection Induced Seismicity
Civil Engineering Dimension, 2022 Injection of fluid into subsurface geologic strata for geothermal energy, oil production, and waste disposal has been linked to induced seismic activity in the United States as well as in several other countries.

Fluid-induced seismicity: comparison of rate- and state- and critical pressure theory
Geothermal Energy, 2017 Induced seismicity as generated by the injection of fluids in a homogeneous, permeable medium with faults with variable proximity to rupture conditions is simulated using the rate- and state-dependent frictional fault theory (RST) of Dieterich (J Geophys

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Deterministic earthquake prediction remains elusive, but time‐dependent probabilistic seismicity forecasting seems within reach thanks to the development of physics‐based models relating seismicity to stress changes. Difficulties include constraining the
