Dr. Nguyen Xuan Anh, Director of the Institute of Earth Sciences, stated that these are induced earthquakes, usually of weak or moderate intensity, rarely causing serious damage like natural tectonic earthquakes. Induced earthquakes occur cyclically, closely related to the water storage activity of reservoirs. There are periods of weak earthquake activity, and periods of frequent earthquakes.

The predicted earthquake activity in this area will continue for many years, possibly 10 years before stabilizing, but it is unlikely to exceed 5.5 magnitude.
