Abstract

Is there any scientific connection between earthquakes and hydrocarbons? Do geophysicists in the energy industry become involved in the study of seismic events? Geophysicists in the petroleum industry do monitor seismic events as they relate to hydraulic fracturing and reservoir monitoring. Borehole seismology in the energy sector involves detection of seismic events on a microseismic, i.e., Richter magnitudes less than 0.0, scale. Hydraulic fracture monitoring using microseismic techniques operational setup issues and two case studies are presented in this discussion.
