Abstract
The application of (passive) seismic data as a tool for the monitoring of fracturing-induced shalegas production is widely known. Recently the various potential environmental risks associated with this man-induced fracturing have specifically received ample attention worldwide (see [1] for references). In The Netherlands, where an exploration drilling license near the town of Boxtel had been issued a vivid public debate took place.
