N2  - A team of Japanese researchers, who have a considerable
experience in the microseismic monitoring of hydraulic
stimulation/circulation of HDR/HWR/HFR reservoirs,
conducted a microseismic monitoring at the Cooper Basin
HDR site, Australia in the last quarter of 2003. A network
of seismic instruments with 4 near surface instruments,
three downhole instruments and one deep downhole
instruments was set up by Geodynamics and CRIEPI. The
seismic network detected approximately 32,000 triggers
during injection of 20,000 m3 of fresh water into granitic
basement over 3 weeks. The authors located the events on
a semi-realtime basis using automatic software for picking,
and the locations were fed back to the pumping side for
determination of further injection plan. The locations of
seismic events showed sub-horizontal extension of the
reservoir to 1,800 m away from the injection well at a depth
of around 4,500 m. The heterogeneous source migration
suggests that the fractures in the stimulated zone were close
to a critically stressed state.
