Post-injection normal closure of fractures as a mechanism for induced seismicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the controlling mechanisms underlying injection-induced seismicity is important for optimizing reservoir productivity and addressing seismicity-related concerns related to hydraulic stimulation in Enhanced Geothermal Systems.

A classification of induced seismicity

open access: yesGeoscience Frontiers, 2018
Abstract In order to adopt the best safety procedures, man-made earthquakes should be differentiated as a function of their origin. At least four different types of settings can be recognized in which anthropogenic activities may generate seismicity: (I) fluid removal from a stratigraphic reservoir in the underground can trigger the compaction of the

What’s Shakin’? Ladra v. New Dominion, LLC: A Case of Consequence for the Hydraulic Fracturing Industry and Those Affected by Induced Seismicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This analysis is accompanied by a study of a 2015 ruling of the Supreme Court of Oklahoma, Ladra v. New Dominion, LLC. The case considered the possibility of a private tort action by homeowners against the operators of injection wells proceeding within ...

Seismic Diffusivity and the Influence of Heterogeneity on Injection‐Induced Seismicity

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2021
AbstractThe spatiotemporal patterns of injection‐induced seismicity (IIS) are commonly interpreted with the concept of a triggering front, which propagates in a diffusion‐like manner with an associated diffusivity parameter. Here, we refer to this diffusivity as the “seismic diffusivity.” Several previous studies implicitly assume that seismic ...

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 ...

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.

Seismic noise emission induced by seismic waves [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1994
The in situ rock undergoing different kinds of deformation accumulates elastic energy that can be released spontaneously or under artificial effect. Triggering of energy can also be performed by means of a dynamic excitation caused by elastic waves. We carried out special field investigations with the use of seismic vibrators (Vibroseis-like sources ...

Fault reactivation by fluid injection: Controls from stress state and injection rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We studied the influence of stress state and fluid injection rate on the reactivation of faults. We conducted experiments on a saw-cut Westerly granite sample under triaxial stress conditions.

An overview of induced seismicity in the Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yesNetherlands Journal of Geosciences, 2022
AbstractWe present an overview of induced seismicity due to subsurface engineering in the Netherlands. Our overview includes events induced by gas extraction, underground gas storage, geothermal heat extraction, salt solution mining and post-mining water ingress.
