Abstract

Abstract: In recent years, the popularity of hydraulic fracturing technology inducing seismicity it has attracted wide attention all over the world. Since the comprehensive promotion of hydraulic fracturing technology in 2015, as one of the main areas of shale gas exploitation in China, Sichuan Basin has an increasing trend in the frequency and magnitude of seismic activity. We collect the data of global earthquakes induced hydraulic fracturing, especially in Sichuan Basin, to expound the seismicity characteristics, inducing mechanism, earthquake monitoring, risk mitigation, disaster prediction of induced earthquakes, which have certain value of reference to the comprehensive understanding of hydraulic fracturing induced earthquakes.

Key words: Hydraulic fracturing, Shale gas, Induced earthquake, Research progress
