LLNL computational geoscientist Chris Sherman (left) and seismologist Kayla Kroll demonstrate the Operational FoRecasting for Induced Seismicity (ORION) toolkit that was funded by the Department of Energy Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management under the National Risk Assessment Partnership and the Science-Informed Machine Learning for Accelerating Real-Time Decision in Subsurface Application Initiative. ORION is a physics-based seismic-forecasting software platform to help operators and regulators better understand and manage seismic hazards at carbon storage sites.
