Deep Well Injection Induced Seismicity

open access: yesCivil 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

open access: yesGeothermal 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

Earthquake Nucleation Characteristics Revealed by Seismicity Response to Seasonal Stress Variations Induced by Gas Production at Groningen

open access: yesGeophysical 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

Static behaviour of induced seismicity [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2016
The standard paradigm to describe seismicity induced by fluid injection is to apply non-linear diffusion dynamics in a poroelastic medium. I show that the spatio-temporal behaviour and rate evolution of induced seismicity can, instead, be expressed by ...

A Probabilistic Approach to Injection‐Induced Seismicity Assessment in the Presence and Absence of Flow Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
Induced seismicity models that do not account for the effects of flow boundary conditions and uncertainty in initial stresses on the seismicity rate fail to predict the seismicity observed in real‐world injection sites.

Short-term forecasting of M max during hydraulic fracturing

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Previous studies of injection-induced earthquake sequences have shown that the maximum magnitude (M max ) of injection-induced seismicity increases with the net injected volume (V); however, different proposed seismic-hazard paradigms predict ...

Soil Fatigue from Induced Seismicity

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Induced seismicity and the effects on civil engineering systems are not completely understood and infrequently studied. One specific area that is not well known is soil fatigue which includes factors such as understanding the natural conditions of the ...

Induced Seismicity Completeness Analysis for Improved Data Mining

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The study of induced seismicity at sites of fluid injection is paramount to assess the seismic response of the earth’s crust and to mitigate the potential seismic risk. However statistical analysis is limited to events above the completeness magnitude mc,
