Webinar | 2012 | June | Using b-Value Analysis to Avoid Faults During Fracture Jobs Using Microseismic Monitoring

In order to gain more insights from microseismic monitoring, organizations are using b-value analysis, a method to estimate stress in the subsurface, to avoid geohazards such as faults in their reservoirs.

MicroSeismic, Inc.’s geophysicist Michael Kratz presents a Barnett Shale case study, expanding on his EAGE/SPE Unconventional Resources Vienna conference talk.
