The usage of microseismics as a reservoir monitoring tool have significantly increased due to recent developments and improvements. In hydraulic fracture monitoring engineers now uses real-time microseismic to decide on the timing and effectiveness of a fiber diversion technique. In long term monitoring a unique sensor, which is deployed in a live well, can effectively monitor microseismic activity even during oil field operations eliminating the need for dedicated monitor well.
