  • Ensure induced seismicity remains below regulatory thresholds
Carbon Storage
  • Ensure secure and compliant storage
  • Track potential fault reactivation and leakage pathways
Reservoir Monitoring
  • Monitor the movement of fluids, such as oil, gas, or CO2, within reservoirs
  • Identify potential fault reactivation due to production or injection
Produced Water Injection
  • Ensure induced seismicity remains below regulatory thresholds
  • Track potential fault reactivation and leakage pathways
Industrial Sites
  • Determine natural background seismicity as part of site characterization
  • Continuously monitor seismicity to guarantee process safety

Seismicity

Injection of CO2 in underground rock formations may trigger seismic events on pre-existing faults in the reservoir formation or in other formations that are reached by the pressure changes caused by the injection. Stress and pore pressure state, as well as the existence, position, and orientation of faults must be understood as thoroughly as possible to define an injection strategy that minimizes the risk of inducing micro-seismic events. Before injection commences, the naturally occurring seismicity in the area should be determined as a baseline against which future seismicity can be compared. C44™ provides all the tools to monitor the occurrence of seismic events 24/7 from surface networks, downhole instruments, or fiber optics. It automatically detects and localizes seismic events and displays all the information to the operator.
