Over the past decade, microseismic monito
ring has become the most widely used approach to gain an
understandin
g of in-situ reservoir behaviour during hydraulic fracture stimulations. F
rom early
monitoring performed in the Barnett Shale to current progra
ms in the Horn River and Marcellus
formations, we review the evolutio
n of microseismic monitoring from the viewpoint of data collection
(s
ingle versus multi-well array configurations, utilization of long lateral
stimulation wells), data analysis
and the incorporation of microseism
ic parameters to constrain and validate reservoir models.
We conclu
de with a look at multi-array microseismic results from hydraulic fracture
stimulations of
various North American shale plays to illustrate how
microseismic analysis has aided in the
understanding of reservoir ch
aracteristics and in turn, helped to plan more effective stimulation
programs. We highlight case studies where microseismic monitoring was used
to help assess fracture
dimensions, stage spacing and well spacing.
In addition, we look at how the use of advanced analysis
techniques s
uch as seismic moment tensor inversion (SMTI) has helped propel the indust
ry forward and
allowed operators to gain a better estimate of the sti
mulated reservoir volume, the discrete fracture
network and the effec
tive fluid flow by understanding details on individual rupture mechanisms
and
how these mechanisms change depending on treatment program, local
stresses and local geology.
