- Abstract
Using the model information and in situ data on hydrofracturing in an oil and gas reservoir of the Bakken Formation (USA), potential of locating hypocenters of microseismic events concurrently with determining parameters of velocity anisotropy of seismic waves in rock mass is analyzed. It is shown that inclusion of anisotropy in the analysis improves accuracy of spatial location of microseismic event hypocenters and increases validity of estimation of the fracturing direction.
