Abstract

See full text

A method for characterizing a hydraulic fracture in a subsurface formation includes inducing a pressure change in a borehole drilled through the subsurface formation. At least one of pressure and a time derivative of pressure is measured in the borehole for a selected length of time. At least one physical parameter of at least one fracture is determined using the measured pressure and/or the time derivative of pressure. A method for characterizing hydraulic fracturing rate uses microseismic event count measured through the borehole and its real-time implementation.
