Utah FORGE: Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) Model (2025 v1) 3D Visualization Via the Seequent Central Public Viewer
Visualize the Utah FORGE DFN model in three-dimensional space using the Seequent Central public viewer. 131 discrete planar fractures have been interpreted by Aleta Finnila (https://gdr.openei.org/submissions/1750) from various data sets obtained during the 2022 and 2024 stimulation of production well 16A(78)-32. This upload contains links to fifty-three navigable scenes, as well as additional documentation including: a legend with data sources; navigation instructions; and a spreadsheet documenting what data sets were used to create the DFN planes.
