Imaging Geometry And Growth Rate Of A Hydraulic Fracture Zone By Locating Induced Microearthquakes
The hydraulic fracturing technique has become an important tool in the enhancement of hydrocarbons recovery, geothermal energy extraction, and solid waste disposal. The characterization of geometry parameters and growth rate of a hydraulic fracture zone is an important task for monitoring and ass...
