Some times, they include micro seismic data in hyspdraulic fractured reservoir simulation. What is the specific influential purpose for that? Does it have some effect to determine the location of HF?
How does that work? Is there a relationship between micro seismic data and permeability to precisely delineate the fracture?
You get the length and width of the fractured zone. You do not acquire permeability, nor width of each fracture. You have the number of fractures vs. time, a phenomenon not described by current theoretical software.
They use microseismic data to have a general idea of where the fracture goes. The idea is, during fracturing, fast slip might occur on both propagating fracture, or in the natural fractures in the medium, this can cause seismicity which can be detected by the detectors.
