This is 2D and 3D seismic reflection data from Utah FORGE reprocessed during Phase 2c. The readme file containing an explanation of the data including data formats, software that can be used, processing, and projection and datum used. The Reprocessing document gives the rationale for reprocessing and shows examples of the improvements that were obtained. For all 3D and 2D data the following datasets were created and output in SEG-Y format: - Unmigrated Time - Prestack Time Migration (PSTM), Unenhanced (UnEnh) and Enhanced (Enh) - Prestack Depth Migration (PSDM), Unenhanced (UnEnh) and Enhanced (Enh) - Velocity Model used for Migration

This dataset includes a final report and a 3D velocity model derived from seismic DAS and geophone borehole data collected during the April 2024 stimulation of the reservoir at Utah FORGE. The report details the processing of over 50,000 P- and S-wave travel times used in a tomographic inversion to estimate the Vp/Vs ratio, revealing anomalies adjacent to wells 16A and 16B that may be associated with injected fracturing fluids. Additionally, Wadati analysis of more than 27,000 pairs of differential P- and S-wave travel times supports this interpretation with a high Vp/Vs estimate of 1.86, averaged over the dimensions of the earthquake cluster. The accompanying data file provides a 3D model of P- and S-wave velocities and Vp/Vs ratios, structured with spatial coordinates and velocity values.

This set of data contains raw and Initially-processed 2D and 3D seismic data from the Utah FORGE study area near Roosevelt Hot Springs. Reprocessed versions of these data can be accessed at the linked submission in the Resources section titled "Reprocessed Seismic Reflection Data." The zipped archives numbered from 1-100 to 1001-1122 contain 3D seismic uncorrelated shot gatherers SEG-Y files. The zipped archives numbered from 1-100C to 1001-1122C contain 3D seismic correlated shot gatherers SEG-Y files. Other data have intuitive names.

This dataset contains a map, showing the Utah FORGE seismic stations, and seismic velocity model data. There are 61 1-D velocity models which are in a compressed TAR file. A paper is referenced at the end of this description which discusses the use of these data in 3D modelling. The paper summary follows: We expand the application of spatial autocorrelation (SPAC) from typical 1-D Vs profiles to quasi-3-D imaging via Bayesian Monte Carlo inversion (BMCI) using a dense nodal array (49 nodes) located at the Utah Frontier Observatory for Research in Geothermal Energy (FORGE) site. Combinations of 4 and 9 geophones in subarrays provide for 36 and 25 1-D Vs profiles, respectively. Profiles with error bars are determined by calculating coherency functions that fit observations in a frequency range of 0.2-5 Hz. Thus, a high-resolution quasi-3-D Vs model from the surface to 2.0 km depth is derived and shows that surface-parallel sedimentary strata deepen to the west, consistent with a 3-D seismic reflection survey. Moreover, the resulting Vs profile is consistent with a Vs profile derived from distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data located in a borehole at the FORGE site. The quasi-3-D velocity model shows that the base of the basin dips ~22 degrees to the west and topography on the basement interface coincident with the Mag Lee Wash suggests that the bedrock interface is an unconformity.

This catalog contains microseismic event locations recorded during the April 2024 stimulation at the Utah FORGE site. Events were detected and located using a DAS-specific source imaging workflow that avoids conventional phase picking. Instead, STA/LTA-transformed DAS and downhole geophone traces were back-propagated through a calibrated 1D velocity model to generate a coherency field across a 3D subsurface grid. Events were identified at locations where P- and S-wave back-projections constructively aligned, and associated uncertainties were estimated from the spatial coherency distribution.

This is a presentation on Seismicity-Permeability Relationships Probed via Nonlinear Acoustic Imaging by Pennsylvania State University, presented by Derek Elsworth. This video slide presentation discussed controls and acoustic signatures of aseismic through seismic evolution of relocation-stability-permeability on fractures in shear-reactivation as a precursor to, and a key predictor of, seismic moment magnitude of prospective triggered-seismicity. This presentation was featured in the Utah FORGE R&D Annual Workshop on August 13, 2024.

The page includes surface acquisition nodal datasets, downhole geophone data, and Silixa fiber data. Raw seismic stimulation data and the scripts to process this data is under the Silixa heading.

This is data from and a final report on the development of a 3D velocity model for the larger FORGE area and on the seismic resolution in the stimulated fracture volume at the bottom of well 16A-32. The velocity model was developed using RMS velocities of the seismic reflection survey and seismic velocity logs from borehole measurements as an input model. To improve the accuracy of the model in the shallow subsurface, travel times phase arrivals of the direct propagating P-waves were determined from the seismic reflection data, using PhaseNet, a deep-neural-network-based seismic arrival time picking method. The travel times were subsequently inverted using the input velocity model. The seismic resolution study used borehole and surface seismic sensors as well as the seismicity observed during the April 2022 stimulation experiment to estimate the seismic resolution in the activated fracture reservoir. The data contain a 3D P- and S-wave velocity model for the larger FORGE area.
