The combination of seismic analysis with advanced physics-based simulation provides an opportunity to further understand injection-induced fault reactivation, including the hydro-mechanical interplay between different faults and the rock where they reside. Here, this is investigated based on data from hydraulic stimulation of a well at the Reykjanes geothermal field. Central is the development of an interdisciplinary framework for integration of different data types towards a 3D, hydro-mechanical and faulted geothermal reservoir simulation model. This work shows how seismic interpretations can improve simulation models and, reciprocally, how fully coupled physics-based modeling can add to seismic interpretations in analysis of fault reactivation.

地震分析与先进的基于物理的模拟相结合，为进一步了解注入引起的断层重新激活提供了机会，包括不同断层与其所在岩石之间的流体力学相互作用。在这里，这是根据 Reykjanes 地热田一口井的水力增产数据进行的研究。核心是开发跨学科框架，将不同数据类型集成到 3D、水力机械和断层地热储层模拟模型中。这项工作展示了地震解释如何改进模拟模型，反过来，完全耦合的基于物理的建模如何在断层再激活分析中添加到地震解释中。
