摘要
A well system includes a fiber optic cable positionable downhole along a length of a wellbore. The well system also includes a reflectometer communicatively coupleable to the fiber optic cable. The reflectometer injects optical signals into the fiber optic cable and receives reflected optical signals from the fiber optic cable. Further, the reflectometer identifies strain detected in the reflected optical signals generated from seismic waves of a microseismic event. Additionally, the reflectometer identifies a focal mechanism of the microseismic event and velocities of the seismic waves. The reflectometer also determines a position of the microseismic event using the strain detected in the reflected optical signals, the focal mechanism of the microseismic event, and the velocities of the seismic waves.
