Microscopic and spectroscopic data of pseudotachylytes and wall rocks from the Moncuni ophiolite

Oliver Plümper

2020

We investigated the microstructures and geochemistry of pseudotachylytes found within the ophiolitic peridotites and gabbros from the Moncuni area (Lanzo Ultramafic Massif, Western Alps). The pseudotachylytes preserve dry glass and pristine microlites. The presence of garnet and the static...

Microstructural data and microscopic stress measurements of natural mineral-hydration reactions

Oliver Plümper

2022

We investigated the microstructures of periclase-to-brucite hydration domains within marble from the Adamello contact aureole (Italy). The microstructure preserve high differential stresses within the calcite surrounding the hydration domains of up to 1.5 GPa. Samples were investigated using...

Original microstructural data of altered rocks and reconstructions using generative adversarial networks (GANs)

Hamed Amiri

2022

We image two altered rock samples consisting of a meta-igneous and a serpentinite showing an isolated porous and fracture network, respectively. The rock samples are collected during previous visits to Swartberget, Norway in 2009 and Tønsberg, Norway in 2012. The objective is to employ a...

Microstructural data and trace element concentration measurements of recrystallised zircons

Jasper Huijsmans

2022

We have examined the crystal structure and and composition of recrystallised zircons from the Jack Hills, Australia and the island of Harris & Lewis, Scotland. Data has been collected with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron probe micro analysis (EMPA) in order to resolve the...

In-situ Distributed Strain Sensing (DSS) data from the Zeerijp-3a well in the Groningen gas field, the Netherlands. Period 2015-2021

Pepijn R. Kole | Rob M.H.E. van Eijs

2022

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)...

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

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...

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...

Friction data of simulated basaltic fault gouge under hydrothermal conditions

Hanaya Okuda

2022

We performed friction experiments on simulated basaltic gouge under hydrothermal conditions to investigate roles of subducting oceanic crust on seismogenesis in subduction zones. In this dataset, we report raw data, processed data after removal of seal friction effects, velocity dependence of...

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...
