Utah FORGE 3-2417: DAS Microseismic Event Records, 16A/16B Circulation Test, 2023
This data archive includes the DAS event triggers (waveforms) detected during the 16A-16B circulation tests that took place in July 2023. This dataset was acquired by the FOGMORE R&D project (Fiber Optic MOnitoring for Reservoir Evolution), Utah FORGE R&D Project 3-2417.
