Abstract
Acoustic emission (AE)/microseismic technique is employed in every modern geothermal development as the only means by which direct information about the state of the reservoir can be obtained at locations distant from the wellbores.The past few years has seen considerable improvement in their ability to analyze and interpret data obtained by the AE/microseismic measurements.But progress must still be made if the technique is to contribute characterizing geothermal reservoirs, providing usable information for borehole physics, rock mechanics and reservoir engineering.
