Geomechanical, seismological, and geodetic data pertaining to the Groningen gas field: a data package used in the "Mmax II Workshop", on constraining the maximum earthquake magnitude in the Groningen field

Stephen Oates | Anke Jannie Landman | Onno van der Wal | Hermann Baehr | Harry Piening

2022

The operator of the Groningen gas field, the Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM) has been developing and refining a seismic hazard and risk model as part of the response to induced earthquakes seen in the Groningen gas field since the early ‘90s. As part of these efforts, a workshop was...

Petrel geological model of the Groningen gas field, the Netherlands

Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM)

2020

Geological model and data of the Groningen gas field, the Netherlands, developed by the Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM) and distributed by the Dutch research infrastructure of solid earth sciences, EPOS-NL. The static model helps geoscientists to develop stratigraphic and structural...

In-situ Distributed Strain Sensing data from the Zeerijp-3a well of the Groningen gas field, Netherlands. Period 2015-2019.

Pepijn R. Kole

2021

The Groningen gas field is the largest gas field in Europe. Gas production in this field has led to seismicity and surface subsidence, both believed to be caused by compaction of the underlying reservoir sandstone. In 2015, the field operator (Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij - NAM)...

Shallow compaction data of the Groningen gas field and other locations in the Netherlands – period 1970 to 2021.

Rob M.H.E. van Eijs | Onno van der Wal

2022

This dataset comprises shallow (0 to 400 meter) compaction data obtained in various locations across the Netherlands, including the large Groningen gas field in the NE Netherlands. Data were obtained in 14 dedicated shallow compaction wells in Groningen, 1 well in Friesland (N Netherlands), 1...

Core photographs of the Rotliegend reservoir of the Groningen gas field and surrounding areas

Clemens A. Visser | Karel Bokhorst

2022

The Groningen gas field is the largest gas field in Europe and has been showing seismicity since the 1990s. The ~200 meter deep gas reservoir is situated at ~3 km depth, and comprises Permian (Slochteren) sandstone from the Rotliegend formation. The reservoir has been cored extensively by the...

Integrating the geological database of the subsurface of the Netherlands, for efficient visualization and interpretation

Liviu Matenco | Fred Beekman

2023

This data publication provides an integrated framework of the public geological database of the Dutch subsurface, for geological interpretation. It complements the extensive existing information portals available for public use by providing efficient visualization and interpretation of...

Data package with "Noncontacting laser-based acousto-seismics at the laboratory scale: towards near-real-time monitoring of granular analogue models"

Jasper Smits

2024

This data was generated using the seismo-acoustic setup for geological materials in the TecLab in Utrecht, described in the research paper that will accompany this data set. The data has been acquired using a PolyTec Vibrometer, and the data files provided contain all the raw data, processed...

2024

Induced earthquakes have occurred in the Groningen gas field in the Netherlands, since 1991, almost three decades after production began in 1963. As part of the Hazard and Risk Assment for the Groningen gas field, the field operator NAM (Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij BV) developed the...
