Hydraulic fracturing is frequently used to increase the permeability of rock formations in
energy extraction scenarios such as unconventional oil and gas extraction and enhanced …

This paper presents a high-level overview of site characterization, risk analysis and
monitoring priorities for underground energy-related product storage or sequestration …

Induced seismicity and surface deformation are common observable manifestations of the
geomechanical effect of reservoir operations whether related to geothermal energy …

Geological reservoirs are widely used for storing or disposing of various fluids and gases,
including groundwater, wastewater, carbon dioxide, air, gas, and hydrogen. Monitoring …

Induced earthquakes are manifestations of highly heterogeneous distributions of effective
stress changes imparted by anthropogenic activities such as hydraulic fracturing and …

The Coso geothermal field is a major geothermal power production site in the western
United States. It has been observed that low-magnitude seismic events (M< 3.71) are …

Reservoir operations for gas extraction, fluid disposal, carbon dioxide storage, or
geothermal energy production are capable of inducing seismicity. Modeling tools exist for …

In recent years, the rapid expansion and development of the shale gas industry in the
Sichuan Basin has coincided with a series of unexpected moderate-sized earthquakes …
