Peter Hennings is a Senior Research Scientist at the Bureau of Economic Geology, University of Texas, Austin. He is the principal Investigator in the Centre for Integrated Seismic Research (CISR) focussing on induced seismicity and reservoir geomechanics.
He has been at UT since 2016 where he leads the BEG’s TexNet earthquake Monitoring Program. This research effort has revealed the mechanistic relationship between human activity and earthquakes in key regions of Texas and his basin-scale geologic characterizations now underpin new seismicity hazard assessments state-wide.
