Fault reactivation in hydrocarbon and geothermal reservoirs - differences and similarities
Show Notes

In a recently published paper, Loes Buijze and her co-authors meticulously describe the characteristics of onshore hydrocarbon-bearing and geothermal reservoirs in the Netherlands. Here, Loes talks about the main implications of these findings when it comes to better understanding the risk of induced seismicity for both types of reservoirs, the questions that are still unanswered, and the research that is currently being done.
