Abstract
This thesis has investigated the use of microseismic techniques to monitor \(\hbox{CO}_{2}\) injection and storage, as well as using geomechanical models to guide the interpretation of these observations. A summary of the findings has been provided at the end of each chapter, but in this Sect. 1 will review the key findings, highlighting novel contributions to the field and areas for future research.
Geological storage will be safe, and more permanent than any human activity since Stonehenge. Ron Masters 2009
