Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is a technique that is used for extracting petroleum resources from
impermeable host rocks. In this process, fluid injected under high pressure causes fractures …

Injecting fluids in the crust, or their extraction, changes pore pressure and poroelastic
stresses. Both pressure and stress changes can promote seismicity and, hence, the seismic …

Although hydraulic fracturing‐induced earthquakes have been widely reported in Alberta,
Canada, only one seismic cluster (the Cordel Field) has thus far been linked to wastewater …

To investigate the spatial and temporal variations of seismic azimuthal anisotropy in the
vicinity of the conjugate fault network activated by the 4 July 2019 (UTC) M6. 4 foreshock …

The number of earthquakes in the western Canada sedimentary basin (WCSB) has
increased drastically in the last decade related to unconventional energy production. The …

Using data from nodal geophones and broadband seismometers, this study investigates the
seismicity near Red Deer, Alberta, a region with increasing cases of hydraulic fracturing (HF) …

To investigate the thermal shock effect on microseismic response during hydraulic fracturing
in hot dry rock, laboratory hydraulic fracturing experiments combined with acoustic emission …

Existing methods of well-logging interpretation often contain errors due to the presence of
subsurface fracture networks within carbonate reservoirs. The differences of frequency …

Monitoring subsurface velocity variations due to industrial activities using passive seismic
imaging techniques has gained popularity in recent years. In this study, we examine the …

This research work designed a novel mud-cake solidification method to improve the zonal
isolation of oil and gas wells. The calculation methodology of mud-cake compressive …
