Microseismic Monitoring

Using DAS for Microseismic Monitoring

Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) is a cost effective and easy to deploy solution that delivers a large quantity of densely spaced seismic sensors for passive monitoring of regional and induced seismicity.

The purpose built and patented design of Terra15’s Treble DAS interrogators makes them the first interrogators in the world to provide unbeatable sensitivity at the frequencies important for microseismic monitoring.

This extraordinary high frequency sensitivity combined with the Treble’s gauge free operation can be used to detect, locate, and measure the seismic source parameters with industry leading results.

Institute of Mine Seismology

IMS is the world’s leading provider of microseismic monitoring technology to mines.

The Terra15 and IMS partnership provides miners with Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) data acquisition hardware, software, processing and interpretation services for seismic monitoring and imaging applications.

Leveraging the expertise and experience from this partnership ensures the best possible outcome is achieved above or below ground and optimises the safety and geophysical characterisation of your mine site.

Monitoring Tailings Storage Facilities with DAS and Institute of Mine Seismology

Tailings storage facilities around the world retain large volumes of waste rock and fluids used for processing and transport. Potential structural failures of these facilities pose a significant threat to safety, operations and the environment.

The Institute of Mine Seismology’s multifaceted monitoring approach provides real-time data to monitor the integrity of embankments and arms operators with invaluable information used for mitigating risk. This is achieved by combining traditional methods with Terra15’s DAS technology.
