I'm joining at the absolute right time to help MicroSeismic modernize their core business offering while taking the same proven technology and expertise into environmental (ESG) applications as we forge into the sinkhole and carbon sequestration markets. I look forward to contributing as MicroSeismic continues its growth as a world-leading data and IOT company with a continued focus on protecting our clients' investments, and the integrity of their operations, and help ensure environmental compliance and hazard mitigation."
Prior to MicroSeismic, Mr. Hargraves was at Capgemini where he helped develop ESG & Carbon tracking data solutions used to monitor the hydrocarbon value chain.

MicroSeismic, Inc. provides critical data to sustain the health and vitality of surface and sub-surface assets. We began in 2003 with a mission to bring passive seismic technology to the oil field. As our expertise has grown, so has the list of applications. We have successfully monitored the stability of wellbores in tectonically active areas, CO2 sequestration (CCUS), sinkhole development, enhanced geothermal systems, reservoir stimulation, and seismic hazards in environmentally sensitive areas. The shale boom of the mid-2000's overwhelmed us with demand for hydraulic fracture monitoring. Today, priorities have changed. While frac monitoring is still a business driver for us, new opportunities have expanded our original vision. Adaptable technology and almost 20 years of experience allow us to apply passive seismic techniques to a wide spectrum of problems relevant to the oil field and beyond.
