The Integrated Stress Determination Method (ISDM) is a powerful tool for estimating the regional stress tensor from in-situ measurements of local stress tensors using a wide variety of stress measuring techniques. This study presents new developments of the ISDM: The stress field may be described with up to 12 model parameters; and is applicable to data from CSIR- and CSIRO HI-type of overcoring devices, hydraulic fracturing, hydraulic tests of pre-existing fractures (HTPF), as well as to combined data sets. Furthermore, in combined data sets, the hydraulic fracturing and/or HTPF data may be used to constrain the average elastic parameters, Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.The new ISDM developments were applied to the extensive and recently re-analysed rock stress data at the Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory. The results reveal a good fit of the re-analysed data. Overall, the re-analysis indicates that the stress field at Äspö HRL is relatively well constrained and consistent with depth. The NE-2 Fracture Zone influences the stresses, and dividing the regional stress field into a NW and a SE stress domain. When the hydraulic fracturing data were used to constrain the average elastic parameters, Young's modulus, E, and Poisson's ratio, ν , quite similar results were obtained (E=50.8GPa and ν=0.33ν=0.33) compared with results from biaxial tests of overcore samples (E=61.6MPa and ν=0.26ν=0.26).
