Here we report the raw data of the friction experiments performed on basalt-built faults pressurized with de-ionized H2O, pure CO2, pure Ar, and H2O+CO2 mixtures, respectively... -
Fluid-Induced Fault Slip Experiments in the Laboratory on Critically Stressed Saw-Cut Sandstone Samples with High Permeability
Wang, Lei; Kwiatek, Grzegorz; Rybacki, Erik; Bonnelye, Audrey; Bohnhoff, Marco; Dresen, Georg; (2019-10)
To understand the physical mechanisms governing fluid-induced seismicity at field-scale fluid injection projects, we conducted fluid-induced fault slip experiments in the... -
Mechanical and microstructural data used in: “Inelastic deformation of the Slochteren sandstone: Stress-strain relations and implications for induced seismicity in the Groningen gas field"
Pijnenburg, Ronald; Verberne, Berend; Hangx, Suzanne; Spiers, Christopher; (2019-04)
Pore pressure reduction in sandstone reservoirs generally leads to small elastic plus inelastic strains. These small strains (0.1 – 1.0% in total) may lead to surface subsidence... -
Mechanical and microstructural data used in the article Pijnenburg et al., Deformation behaviour of sandstones from the seismogenic Groningen gas field: Role of inelastic versus elastic mechanisms
Pijnenburg, Ronald; Verberne, Berend; Hangx, Suzanne; Spiers, Christopher; (2015-05)
Hydrocarbon or groundwater production from sandstone reservoirs can result in surface subsidence and induced seismicity. Subsidence results from combined elastic and inelastic... -
Permeability of bituminous coal to CH4 and CO2 under fixed volume and stress boundary conditions: Effects of sorption
Liu, Jinfeng; (2022)
We report permeability data of a cylindrical sample of high volatile bituminous coal (25mm in diameter) with a clearly visible cleat system, to CH4 and CO2, performed under... -
Rotary Shear Experiments on Glass Bead Aggregates
Korkolis, Evangelos; (2021)
Constant sliding velocity (i.e. rate of rotation) friction experiments on mm-thick layers of glass beads, under room temperature and humidity conditions. Stick-slip in sheared... -
Large-scale biaxial experiments on gypsum-gouge faults and a bare PMMA fault: Mechanical data and selected strain and image data
Buijze, Loes; (2019)
Geodetic observations and large-scale laboratory experiments show that seismic instability is preceded by slow slip within a finite nucleation zone. In laboratory experiments... -

Intergranular clay films control inelastic deformation in the Groningen gas reservoir: Evidence from split-cylinder deformation tests
Pijnenburg, Ronald; Verberne, Berend Antonie; Hangx, Suzanne; Spiers, Christopher James; (2019)
Production of oil and gas from sandstone reservoirs leads to small elastic and inelastic strains in the reservoir, which may induce surface subsidence and seismicity. While the... -

General friction and rate and state friction data of powdered fault gouge samples derived from outcrops of the Mai'iu Fault, Papua New Guinae, which is one of the world's most... -
Contact model and numerical modelling results: “Compaction of the Groningen Gas Reservoir Sandstone: Discrete Element Modelling Using Microphysically Based Grain-Scale Interaction Laws”
Mehranpour, Mohammad Hadi; (2021)
Reservoir compaction, surface subsidence and induced seismicity are often associated with prolonged hydrocarbon production. Recent experiments conducted on the Groningen gas... -
Large-scale biaxial experiments on frictionally heterogeneous faults: Mechanical data and selected strain and image data
Buijze, Loes; Guo, Yanshuang; (2020)
Frictional heterogeneity within fault zones is one of the factors proposed to explain the spectrum of slow, intermediate, and fast slip behaviors exhibited by faults in nature....
