Patent US 10,572,829

The new art includes a system, process and means to label microseisms generated by hydraulic fracture operations and detected by acoustic sensors so a that machine learning process may be trained to perform mapping of propped hydraulic fracture dimensions in real-time or near-real time. This labeling process creates a labeled training set that enables any supervised machine learning process to be tested and trained whereby the process may perform real-time mapping of propped and unpropped fractures in subsequent treatment stage(s).
