Title: Microseismic Monitoring Of Storage Reservoirs
Author: H. Reginald Hardy, Jr.
Source: American Gas Association 1976
Year Published: 1976
Abstract: A research program (PR 12-43), concerned with a number of rock mechanics aspects of reservoir storage, has been underway in the Department of Mineral Engineering at The Pennsylvania Stale University during the period 1966-1974. The main object of the overall program has been the development of techniques for determining optimum pressures for underground storage reservoirs. Phase I of this study, which was completed in 1971, involved an analytical and laboratory model study of the problem. An A.G.A. Monograph presenting the results of this phase of the study was published in 1972 (Hardy, 1972a). A second phase of the study, which involved an investigation into ihc feasibility of using microseismic techniques to monitor the stability of underground gas storage reservoirs, was completed in 1974, An A.G.A. Monograph (project PR 12-43A) covering Phase II was published earlier this year (Hardy. 1976). The results of the Phase II study indicated that microseismic techniques appeared to be a feasible means of monitoring the stability of pressurized underground gas storage reservoirs. In order to perfect experimental techniques and develop additional documentation, a Phase II study (PR 12-75) was initiated in January 1975.
