Estimating and interpreting anisotropy and attenuation in large microseismic datasets

Fractures provide important fluid pathways in petroleum reservoirs. In impermeable reservoirs, like those of shale gas, fractures need to be hydraulically stimulated in order to produce from them. Stimulating such fractures causes microseismicity which can be monitored using passive seismic surveys....
