Full-waveform Based Microseismic Source Mechanism Studies in the Barnett Shale: Linking Microseismicity to Reservoir Geomechanics

Microseismic moment tensor (MT) contains important information on the reservoir and fracturing mechanisms. Difficulties arise when attempting to retrieve complete MT with conventional amplitude inversion methods if only one well is available. With the full-waveform approach, near-field information a...
