Pierik, H.J. (author), Leuven, J.R.F.W. (author), Busschers, F.S. (author), Hijma, M. (author), Kleinhans, M.G. (author)Estuaries comprise channels vital for economic activity and bars as valuable habi tats. They are increasingly under human-induced pressures (e.g. sea-level rise and dredging), resulting in morphological changes that affect navigability, flood safety and ecology. Antecedent geology may strongly steer how estuary channels will adapt to these...article 2022

(author)In the Dutch offshore, we have observed numerous acoustic anomalies, usually bright spots, in seismic data of Cenozoic deltaic deposits. When associated with shallow gas, these bright spots are good indicators of re source potential, drilling hazard, or seabed methane emissions. We apply a combined seismic and petrophysical assessment to qualify...article 2022

Gies, C. (author), Struijk, M. (author), Bekesi, E. (author), Veldkamp, H. (author), van Wees, J.D. (author)We present a new method to incorporate paleo-surface temperature effects in steady state 3D conductive temperature models. The workflow approximates the transient effects and incorporates these into steady state models, using appropriate source and sink terms for radiogenic heat production. This allows for rapid models, which can be easily used...article 2021

Fokker, P.A. (author)The Netherlands is subsiding faster than the sea level is rising. In large parts of the Netherlands, human intervention is causing increased subsidence, in part because of a reduction in groundwater levels. The Geological Survey of the Netherlands (GDN), part of TNO, investigates all aspects of subsidence in collaboration with other institutes....other 2020

(author), Stevenson, A. (author)The poor access to data on the marine environment is a handicap to government decision-making, a barrier to scientific understanding and an obstacle to economic growth. In this light, the European Commission initiated the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet) in 2009 to assemble and disseminate hitherto dispersed marine data. In...article 2019

Meekes, J.A. (author), Vandeweijer, V. (author)Several faults in the border area between Netherlands and Germany show a complex structure. Deep seismic lines do not reveal the shallow structure well enough and the density of the available lines is low. We conducted two high resolution seismic reflection lines to clarify some of the geological questions about the fault structure. This paper...conference paper 2019

Carpentier, S. (author), Boullenger, B. (author)Accurate characterization and reliable monitoring of geological reservoirs often requires extensive geophysical measurements, in particular time-lapse (4D) seismic surveys. The conventional approach to reveal the time-lapse changes is to perform comprehensive seismic surveys with high repeatability. This approach is often not economically viable...conference paper 2019

Verdel, A. (author), van Haeringen, D. (author), Vandeweijer, V. (author), Carpentier, S. (author), Meekes, S. (author)We demonstrate in this geothermal exploration case study performed in The Netherlands that ambient noise seismic interferometry (ANSI) can be an effective and efficient method for obtaining surface wave dispersion curves, leading to shallow shear-wave velocity-depth profiles that can improve imaging of deep structures. As the ANSI method...conference paper 2019

Vandeweijer, V. (author), Hofstee, C. (author), Graven, H. (author)Since 2004 the feasibility of CO2 injection and storage in depleted natural gas fields has been researched and demonstrated at K12-B, a gas field on the Dutch continental shelf. In total over 100 Kton of CO2 was injected. The entire operation at the K12-B field was completed without any major complications. It can therefore be stated that safe...conference paper 2018

Barros, E. (author), Leeuwenburgh, O. (author), Carpentier, S. (author), Wilschut, F. (author), Neele, F. (author)To manage risks in CO2 storage operations, monitoring systems need to be designed such that the data can inform the operator whether the storage site will continue to behave as expected or not. In order to compare the benefits of different monitoring strategies, we require a measure of ‘efficiency' that is based on a balance between monitoring...conference paper 2018

Twerda, A. (author), Belfroid, S.P.C. (author), Neele, F.P. (author)Re-using depleted fields (and platforms and wells) offers advantages over developing storage projects in saline formations. However, with reservoir pressures after production sometimes below 20 bar, there can be a large pressure difference between the reservoir and the transport pipeline at the surface, which will be typically at pressures in...conference paper 2018

(author)In the context of carbon capture and storage (CCS), quantitative estimation of injected CO2 is of vital importance to verify if the process occurs without any leakage. From a geophysical perspective this is challenging as a CO2 plume has a severe imprint on seismic data. While this makes delineation of the plume rather straightforward, for...conference paper 2018

Geologische Dienst Nederland, (author)Wist je dat we kunnen ‘meten’ hoe oud water is? We gebruiken daar zogenaamde isotopen voor, zoals tritium. Je kunt dan bepalen hoe oud het water is. Als je op verschillende plekken de ouderdom van grondwater meet, kun je een beeld krijgen van hoe het water onder de grond stroomt. Diep onder de Veluwe is het water bijvoorbeeld zo’n 20.000 jaar...other 2018
