A method of determining hydraulic fracture geometry of a zone of interest in a reservoir, the method being characterized by the steps of: positioning an acoustic assembly within a first wellbore adjacent the zone of interest in a reservoir, the first wellbore drilled within a portion of the reservoir to receive a hydraulic fracturing treatment defining the zone of interest, the acoustic assembly including an acoustic receiver controller and a set of one or more acoustic sensors to capture fracture events within the zone of interest; inserting a drilling deflector into the first wellbore above the acoustic assembly; drilling a second wellbore to receive a fracturing fluid, the second wellbore comprising a lateral wellbore extending from a lateral aperture in the first wellbore, the lateral aperture in the first wellbore defining an entrance into the second wellbore from the first wellbore, and the lateral aperture in the first wellbore being located above the set of one or more acoustic sensors of the acoustic assembly; positioning a communication conduit bypass (101, 133; 103; 102, 93) within the first wellbore, the communication conduit bypass (101, 133; 103; 102, 93) comprising a first end and a second end, and the positioning comprising positioning the communication conduit bypass (101, 133; 103; 102, 93) such that the second end is in the first wellbore and adjacent a first location above the lateral aperture in the first wellbore and the first end is in the first wellbore and adjacent a second location below the lateral aperture in the first wellbore; inductively coupling the acoustic receiver controller to a first inductive coupler connected to the first end of the communication conduit bypass (101, 133; 103; 102, 93) such that the first inductive coupler is positioned adjacent the second location below the lateral aperture in the first wellbore; inductively coupling surface equipment (31, 38) to a second inductive coupler connected to the second end of the communication conduit bypass (101, 133; 103; 102, 93) such that the second inductive coupler is positioned adjacent the first location above the lateral aperture in the first wellbore; and communicating real-time microseismic event data from an acoustic assembly to a surface unit via the first inductive coupler and the second inductive coupler, the microseismic event data describing microseismic events detected by the acoustic assembly when performing hydraulic fracturing of the reservoir in the zone of interest via introduction of hydraulic fracturing fluid into the reservoir through the second wellbore. positioning an acoustic assembly within a first wellbore adjacent the zone of interest in a reservoir, the first wellbore drilled within a portion of the reservoir to receive a hydraulic fracturing treatment defining the zone of interest, the acoustic assembly including an acoustic receiver controller and a set of one or more acoustic sensors to capture fracture events within the zone of interest;
