I read that Fracking takes place 3,000-15,000 feet below.. if you look at the depth of the earthquakes, they are usually around 5-6km. If you convert feet to km you get the precise measurements that goes on in Fracking.

Just a thought

They need to look around the epicenters and see if there is any active disposal/injection wells. That should tell the story. There was a injection well near Guy, AR that got shut down because of a swarm of quakes. No more quakes in that area at least worth talking about.

This was the 1st one. I heard rumbling then the house got one good jolt. Like a car backed in to it. 3rd one rattled things on the walls but it didn't jolt the house any.

I am open to the idea of fracking being a cause, but if so why aren't there earthquakes in all of the thirty states that frack???

There are they are just not broadcasted like certain ones..... use google earth or google maps.... zoom in on each one and you will find a fracking operation in a 2 mile radius some where around the epicenter

 Quoting: Keats


Fracking would destabilize the strata to a greater extent,
therefore the active regions might experience a greater intensity.
To what extent is yet unknown, but it feels like to somewhat of a greater extent than what has been presumed by some in the past. Similar to the actual cost in using conventional nuclear energy is being reconsidered by the revelations of Fukushima.

Re: BREAKING:: 3 quakes central oklahoma in the last 15 mins
I live just West of one shaking area and just South of another in Oklahoma. Not feeling much here, but I want to tell you all this: In the last few weeks, they have put these little yellow boxes all along a long street in my home town. About the time they appeared, a lady from an oil company started harassing my family about putting the same type of boxes on the family farm (they live in town, the farm is obviously out in the country). They are boxes that take seismic readings. My family initially refused because it would disturb the herd that was grazing, but what we got served with boiled down to "take the money, you can't fight it".

We want to deny fracking as a cause here, but I can tell you this and it may or may not be related. There are a lot of earthquakes around Enid and Enid is a boomtown. Housing is so scarce that people live in campers because the hotels are full and all of the hotel parking lots have oil company vehicles in them.

I also want to point this out. Fracking has been fast and furious in the Western part of the State for a long time and nothing is going on out there, seismically. That tends to be an argument against fracking as a cause. That's all well and good, but I think the latest fracking is along fault lines.

This is not an uncommon practice for the USGS. They'll post the data from an initial reading, then pass it through a couple more computers for analysis and comparison from other instruments and then revise. Generally this means it'll go lower, though rarely it'll be an upward revision.

And if an 8.9 hits Oklahoma of all places we're in serious trouble. Probably kiss the Oogalala (or however it's spelled) aquifer good bye and you'd be having devastated areas from the Gulf all the way up into the Dakotas due to the geological makeup of the area.

A while back when the 4.7 hit down there we actually felt it here where I live and I'm pretty far away. Monitored the waves as they came in on a seismograph one of the school's hosts. Was pretty neat, but scary when you think about how much more powerful an 8.9 would be compared to that 4.7.

Re: BREAKING:: 3 quakes central oklahoma in the last 15 mins
There were 4 quakes listed before these new ones showed up on global incident map. 1 in Kansas, 2 in OK and one in Tennesee. All within last 10 hours I believe. Yesterday we had one in Ontario/near the UP of Michigan. All were under 3 besides the ones in OK. This is alot of movement and could be connected to the New Madrid. There is a fault that runs from New Madrid to OK, as well as SC. Remember when OK and SC were 'trading quakes' a few months ago. There was a long post about it back then with some great links, Ill try to find it.

I'm familiar with the downgrades and even lack of reporting. : )

I just wasn't aware that one of these recent OK quakes initially registered as a 5.0.

What's this talk about an 8.9??
