Abstract
A stimulation includes an injection of a volume of fluid into a formation. A method includes obtaining a mechanical earth model of the formation, modeling a hydraulic fracture growth pattern in the formation from a stimulation of the formation, determining an increase in pressure in the formation resulting from the stimulation, and predicting whether a seismic event will occur in the formation based on the increase in pressure.
