Monitoring Seismicity Near an Active CO2 EOR Injection

The objective of the earthquake monitoring program at Wellington Oilfield is to ensure safe CO2 injection the Mississippian and Arbuckle with regards to induced seismicity. The research also provides information the stress field of the shallow basement and the location of faults. This data can be used to advance the understanding of induced seismicity in the region as well as inform the regulation of fluid injection in the midcontinent..
