In this overview we report results of analysing induced seismicity in geothermal reservoirs in
various tectonic settings within the framework of the European Geothermal Engineering …

In order to reach Europe׳ s 2020 and 2050 targets in terms of greenhouse gas emissions,
geothermal resources will have to contribute substantially to meeting carbon-free energy …

Abstract The Python libraries NumPy and SciPy are extremely powerful tools for numerical
processing and analysis well suited to a large variety of applications. We developed ObsPy …

In July 2013, a sequence of more than 340 earthquakes was induced by reservoir
stimulations and well‐control procedures following a gas kick at a deep geothermal drilling …

Microseismic source localization is important for inferring the dynamic status of the
subsurface stress field during hydraulic fracturing. Traditional deterministic methods for 3D …

Fluid pressure changes affect fault stability and can promote the initiation of earthquakes
and aseismic slip. However, the relationship between seismic and aseismic fault slip during …

Fluid injection into geological formations for energy resource development frequently
induces (micro) seismicity. Moderate-to large-magnitude induced earthquakes may cause …

Continuous monitoring of in situ reservoir responses to stress transients provides insights
into the evolution of geothermal reservoirs. By exploiting the stress dependence of seismic …

Geothermal energy is a viable alternative to gas for the heating of buildings, industrial areas
and greenhouses, and can thus play an important role in making the transition to …

Deep geothermal energy (DGE) represents an opportunity for a sustainable and carbon-free
energy supply. One of the main concerns of DGE is induced seismicity that may produce …
