Examples of the high-resolution imaging achieved by the 3D seismics (Krawczyk et al. 2019), targeting Permo-Carboniferous geothermal reservoirs in direct comparison with former investigations. A Shows the micro-seismic events registered during fluid injection (Kwiatek et al. 2010) superimposed on a cross section cut from the 3D seismics (Xline 2385, view from south), B and C show the 2D legacy lines LEW25 (view from south) and LEW 1 (view from northeast) on the left-hand side, respectively (courtesy Neptune Energy). For comparison, the corresponding sections cut from the new 3D seismics is shown on the right. The arrow marks the projected drill site of Groß Schönebeck. Stippled lines show former fault interpretations
