Microseismic testing works in much the same way as seismic testing, but small seismic monitors are placed
at the surface, or shallowly buried, above the area undergoing hydraulic
fracturing. These monitors record small seismic changes and relay
them, frequently in real time, to the engineers conducting the hydraulic fracturing treatment. This is the most
effective way to visualize the fractures that are created during a hydraulic fracture and evaluate model effectiveness
