OUR SERVICES

Microseismic
Signal Interpretation

  • Microseismic monitoring generates valuable information about subsurface activity, but reliable interpretation requires careful evaluation of event quality, seismicity patterns and geological context.
  • Carbon Guardian specialists review event detections, locations, magnitudes and spatial and temporal trends to characterize seismic activity and investigate unexpected behavior.
  • By combining C44 monitoring outputs with geological, geomechanical and operational data, we help operators understand potential causes of seismicity and support risk-informed operational decisions.

SIGNAL INTERPRETATION CAPABILITIES

Deliverables

Event Quality & Characterization

  • Review seismic detections to distinguish valid events from noise and artifacts.
  • Assess event locations, depths, magnitudes and associated uncertainties.
  • Refine event catalogues and investigate anomalous or complex event sequences.

Seismic Pattern Analysis

  • Examine spatial and temporal clustering, event migration and magnitude distributions.
  • Compare seismicity with mapped faults, wells and geological features.
  • Correlate event trends with injection, stimulation, pressure and production data.

Interpretation & Decision Support

  • Investigate elevated or unexpected seismicity and assess potential contributing factors.
  • Provide technical context for Traffic Light System reviews and operational response.
  • Prepare interpretation summaries and findings to support technical and operational decisions.
