The seismic network consisting of 4 near-surface stations and 4 downhole stations detected approximately 32,000 triggers during injection of 20,000 m3 of liquid into granitic basement over 3 weeks. The authors located the events on a semi-realtime basis and the locations were fed back to the pumping side. 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 suggest that the reservoir was close to a critically stressed state. publisher: Society of Exploration Geophysicists date: 2012 type: Article type: NonPeerReviewed identifier: Asanuma, Hiroshi and Kumano, Yusuke and Izumi, Tanetomo and Soma, Nobukazu and Kaieda, Hideshi and Tezuka, Kazuhiko and Wyborn, D. and Niitsuma, Hiroaki (2012) Passive seismic monitoring of a stimulation of HDR geothermal reservoir at Cooper Basin, Australia.
