Digital Geological Model of the Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous of the West Netherlands Basin
report
In this report from the Geomodelling department of TNO Geological Survey of the
Netherlands the preliminary results of a geological study on the mainly onshore
Dutch West Netherlands Basin (WNB) are described. The study was carried out in
the year 2021 within the framework of the government funded Geo-information
Program for the deep subsurface (GIP Diep 2021). The aim was to construct a 3D
geological model of the various Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous formations and
members of the Schieland and Rijnland groups. A 3D digital model on group level
already exists for the entire on- and offshore of the Netherlands, but the energy
transition, in particular the quest for geothermal energy, calls for more detailed
models.
