Induced Seismicity Monitoring Project (ISMP)

Induced Seismicity Monitoring Project was a collaborative initiative involved Geoscience BC, BC Oil and Gas Commission, the Pacific Geoscience Center of Geological Survey of Canada, and the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers. The project's objective was to oversee seismic activity in northeastern British Columbia and examine their correlation with fluid injections from hydraulic fracturing and wastewater disposal. Since February 2015 to April 2022, Mahan Geophysical Consulting played a crucial role by providing scientific assessments and consultations on a range of subjects, such as real-time seismic monitoring, baseline studies, and evaluations of ground motion and seismic hazard.
