  • Second catalogue calculated by N. Cuenot as part of his PhD thesis. The downhole network and the surface network were both used to locate events of the 2000 episode at Soultz-sous-Forêts. The catalogue contains 265 events with a magnitude superior to 1.3, with the parameters of the two nodal plans of the focal mechanism detemined using the FPFIT algorithm (Reasenberg and Oppenheimer, 1985)(not available if mechanism not well constrained). The catalogue covers only the stimulation test and not the post-injection test of the 2000 episode. The mean location error is assumed to be less than 50 m horizontally and about 80 m vertically. [see Chapters 6 and 7 and Annexe 1 of Cuenot's Thesis]. Seismic events of the catalogue were located using a tomographic inversion method (Thurber, 1983). The method allows a simultaneous inversion to retrieve both the seismic velocity parameters and the hypocentral parameters in a 3-D layered heterogeneous medium. The location takes into account the evolution of the velocity structure at each iteration. Time period: 30/06/2000 19:41:34 - 11/07/2000 01:14:49 (UTC). The data parameters are the following: Column 1: Event number Column 2: Date (UTC) Column 3: Time (UTC) Column 4: Easting from GPK1 wellhead * Column 5: Northing from GPK1 welhead * Column 6: Depth from GPK1 wellhead * Column 7: Latitude WGS84 ** Column 8: Longitude WGS84 ** Column 9: Elevation WGS84 ** Column 10: Magnitude determined from the seismic signal duration Column 11: Strike of the first nodal plan solution Column 12: Dip of the first nodal plan solution Column 13: Rake of the first nodal plan solution Column 14: Strike of the second nodal plan solution Column 15: Dip of the second nodal plan solution Column 16: Rake of the second nodal plan solution * The local coordinate system is based on the UTM32 system. ** Latitude, longitude and elevation have been derived from the local coordinate system. Remark: the signals from the Renass stations and the Güralp sensor of the surface network, and from the two hydrophones of the downhole network were not used to locate the events of the catalogue. The description of the surface network is available (https://cdgp.u-strasbg.fr/geonetwork/srv/fre/catalog.search#/metadata/SSFS2000-surface_network).

  • Geoven (http://www.geoven.fr) was a geothermal power plant project initially managed by Fonroche Géothermie, later taken over by Arverne (https://arverne.earth/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Communique_Presse_Georhin_130223.pdf). Located at the Ecoparc Rhénan site in Vendenheim, north of Strasbourg, the project aimed to generate 6 MW of electrical energy and 40 MW of thermal energy. It relied on two deep wells to extract hot water and reinject it at depths exceeding 4,000 meters. The two wells VDH-GT1 and VDH-GT2 had been drilled and some tests had been conducted (5 injectivity and productivity cycles between 02/2018 and 11/2019). A first interruption occured after a first period of seismicity (11/2019 – 01/2020, MLv=3.0 max) at Strasbourg and Vendenheim, to allow a third-party scientific expertise. During this period, the well was deepened of 450m to reach 5000m. New tests were authorized starting 10/2020, but were stopped on 28/10/2020 after a new period of seismicity with quake reaching 3.6MLv (04/12/2020). Authority decided on 07/12/2020 to definitely stop the project. Another earthquake of 3.9 ML (https://www.franceseisme.fr/donnees/intensites/2021/210626_0300/Rapport_BCSF-RENASS_2021R1_EVT210626-DPT67.pdf) occured on 26/06/2021. Authorities set up a committee of experts that delivered a first report (https://www.bas-rhin.gouv.fr/Politiques-publiques/Environnement/Geothermie/Rapport-du-comite-d-experts-cree-en-appui-a-l-administration-sur-la-boucle-geothermique-GEOVEN).

  • Geoven is a geothermal project initially managed by Fonroche Géothermie, then taken over by Arverne (https://arverne.earth/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Communique_Presse_Georhin_130223.pdf). This project targets a deep reservoir (around 5km) close to a regional fault. Two wells were drilled, GT1 and GT2. From April to November 2019, several stimulation operations were carried out on the 2 wells GT1 and GT2. A first interruption took place after an initial period of seismicity (11/2019 - 01/2020, MLv=3.0 max) in Strasbourg and Vendenheim. Some of the data have been extrapolated from the Figures presented in the expert report, publicly available here: https://www.bas-rhin.gouv.fr/contenu/telechargement/47764/305601/file/Rapport%20du%20Comit%C3%A9_version%20int%C3%A9grale.pdf The Episode contains several datasets which you can find further down the page in "Links".

  • During the interruption, at the end of 2019, the GT2 well was deepened. The tests were authorized in September 2020, and new tests were carried out. These tests were stopped on 28/10/2020 after a new period of seismicity with an event of magnitude 2.8 Mlv on October 28, and 3.6 Mlv on December 4, 2020. Some of the data have been extrapolated from the Figures presented in the expert report, publicly available here: https://www.bas-rhin.gouv.fr/contenu/telechargement/47764/305601/file/Rapport%20du%20Comit%C3%A9_version%20int%C3%A9grale.pdf The Episode contains several datasets which you can find further down the page in "Links".
