The paper, Seismological Evidence for the Existence of Long‐Distance Hydrological Channels , published in Geophysical Research Letters (2024), identifies well g048 as an active shale gas well.
The researchers found evidence of a hydrological channel connecting this well to the site of the 2021 Ms 4.7 Gongxian earthquake in southern Sichuan, despite being 15 km away.
Based on research findings, is a specific label used in a high-profile study about induced earthquakes caused by shale gas extraction:
While the specific file name g048.mp4 often refers to a supplementary video for this paper, it typically visualizes the seismic activity or the fluid pressure accumulation over time around that specific well and the triggered fault line.
