This dataset covers work that investigated the apparent toughness anisotropy at Utah FORGE by comparing microseismic data with stress profiles from field measurements. The study analyzes the hydraulic fracture growth of Stage 3 at Well 16A(78)-32 using MEQ data, calibrating a numerical hydraulic fracture simulator (GEOS) to quantify the required toughness anisotropy, and comparing the results with values inferred from sonic log-derived stress profiles. The dataset includes a technical report detailing the study, a repository of GEOS modeling input files, and a link to the seismic event catalog used in the analysis. This work was conducted as part of Utah FORGE Project 2-2446, "Closing the Loop Between In-situ Stress Complexity and EGS Fracture Complexity."
