Geothermal - Renewed interest in UK EGS potential?

Next month the Geological Society, London, will hold a seminar on "Engineered Geothermal Energy, The UK's buried treasure: The current status of the economics and technology to exploit it"

Heavy Oil - Monitoring the environment

Passive seismic may be introduced as part of a programme of mitigation measures following oil seepage at surface during initial steaming of a thermal heavy oil operation

Case studies - Frac and line-drive waterflood, Halfdan, North Sea

Maersk used microseismics to investigate acid-frac geometry and to validate the "FAST" (Fracture Aligned Sweep Technology) concept for waterflood management. The subsurface system is the largest of its kind to date and a milestone in permanent microseismic monitoring

Geothermal - Results of EGS reservoir stimulation

Microseismic results from the second phase stimulation of the Cooper Basin EGS geothermal reservoir indicate repeat shearing within a discrete fracture zone accumulating up to several centimeters of slip

Exploration - Passive seismic exploration in Albania

A 3D imaging survey was undertaken in 2008 as part of a oil and gas exploration programme in Southern Albania. Results are to be presented at the forthcoming EAGE Passive Seismic workshop
