The course combines an overview of the general workflow for microseismic event processing and analysis and the physics behind earthquake induction.  Points covered over the two sessions include:

• Overview of Earthquakes and microseismicity, scaling, quick overview of the workflow for a microseismic processing project
• The mechanics of fracturing. Mechanisms driving the induction of microseismic events
• Seismic magnitude
• Induced seismicity cases: early examples of dam-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracturing-induced seismicity, overview of traffic-light systems.
• Hands-on examples. Participants will have access to 2-weeks licence for InSite-HF to work and visualise example case studies provided. A brief introduction to the use of the software with the pre-configured examples will be provided.
• Analysis, imaging, characterisation, and quantification of the induced fracture network, including a case study from the hydraulic fracturing of a tight-gas formation
