MEQ Processing
PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy • Magang
- Processing microearthquake monitoring data for a specific period, including formatting, filtering, phase window selection, and spectral analysis, while ensuring data quality and consistency throughout the analysis.
- Selecting P/S phases and determining hypocenters to accurately localize seismic events is crucial for understanding the subsurface geological structures.
- Using Seisplus software to identify microearthquake events and determine their locations and magnitudes with high precision allows for detailed seismic activity characterisation in the area.
- Analyzing event distributions and temporal patterns of microearthquakes to assess potential geothermal resources and understand their relationship with tectonic processes
