Constraints on stress tensor from microseismicity at Decatur Abstract. Induced microseismicity has been detected in the Decatur CO2 sequestration area, providing critical constraints on the stress state at the reservoir. We invert the full stress tensor with tw...

#ecsmonday on BS #24

Guo et al. (US/ES/CZ) inverted the full #stress tensor from induced #microseismicity in a CO2 sequestration area. How well do these tiny events reveal hidden stresses? Do inferred fault-activation pressures match the #injection pressure?
