Abstract
By using the global and local coefficient of variation and the Allan Factor we investigated the time-clustering properties of the time dynamics of fluid-injection–induced microseismicity. The experiment consists of a microseismic monitoring through a nearly vertical borehole of 12 receivers of a hydraulic fracturing stimulation along a horizontal well separated into more than 20 sections (stages) The main finding of the applied methodology is the discrimination between fault triggering and new fracturing, being the first characterized by a clusterization of the induced microseismic events and the second by a Poissonian behaviour of the generated events.
