OTE 2 Krakow - Microseismicity – A Tool of Reservoir Characterization
- March 16, 2012
-
Krakow, Poland
- Introduction
- Borehole fluid injections are typical for stimulation and development of hydrocarbon or geothermal reservoirs. The fact that fluid injection causes seismicity has been well-established for several decades. Current on going research is aimed at quantifying and control of this process. Understanding and monitoring of fluid-induced seismicity can help us to characterize reservoirs and estimates results of their stimulations. This course provides a systematic introduction into a quantitative description of fluid induced microseismicity. The course will include elements of the earthquake physics, geomechanics, rock physics and poromechanics. A clear relation to the passive seismic monitoring and reservoir characterization will be established. Real data examples related to hydraulic fracturing and reservoir stimulation will be broadly used and discussed.
