Production-induced seismicity indicates a low risk of strong earthquakes in the Groningen gas field
N. Boitz, C. Langenbruch, et al.
Explore the intriguing dynamics of earthquake activity in the Groningen gas field, the largest in Western Europe. This research by Nepomuk Boitz, Cornelius Langenbruch, and Serge A. Shapiro reveals significant insights into induced and triggered earthquakes, estimating the potential for magnitudes up to Mw = 4 and a surprising probability for larger events, surpassing those observed in Pohang. Delve into the surprising stability of Groningen's geological conditions!
