Researchers at UT Austin publish a comprehensive study on seismic activity in the Permian Basin, focusing on injection ...

By Sean Mowbray Next-generation geothermal technologies are gaining steam as a source of clean, renewable energy and an ...

It is now well established that human activities in the subsurface create induced seismicity. While large events can be extremely problematic from both a seismic hazard and operational safety ...

A new collection of published papers offers the most detailed and comprehensive breakdown yet of how water injected into the Permian Basin during oil and gas operations is changing subsurface ...

In a recent article published in the journal AAPG Bulletin, researchers addressed the pressing issue of injection-induced ...

November was particularly active, with 49 recorded earthquakes registering between 2.5 and 4.0 on the Richter scale, of which ...

As part of that effort we investigate the implications and consequences of hazards such as earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, groundwater extraction, and induced seismicity on infrastructure and ...

According to the USGS, fracking, mining and building dams have all been attributed to induced seismicity, where an earthquake is caused by human activity. In the south-central United States ...
