Together with the hosts, the Royal Geological and Mining Society of the Netherlands, we had planned from the outset with the support of Shell to select for publication a compendium of papers on the Geology of gas and oil in the Netherlands. The conference was a real milestone, and we have embodied the keynote addresses together with the wide-ranging views on production and opportunities from the Carboniferous to the Cretaceous herein. From the first producible oil found near the Royal Dutch/Shell offices followed the highlights of discovering the Schoonebeek Oil Field in 1943 and the Groningen Gas Field in 1959; today tenacious exploration harnesses ever smarter technology. Enhanced imaging with 3D, direct hydrocarbon indicators, basin modelling, high-resolution sequence prediction and advanced drilling techniques all playa part. Technology is moving quickly and here in the Netherlands it is being utilised to good effect. The stratigraphic sequences, the structural complexity, new niches for exploration, are all intricately hidden below a Quaternary cover. This volume makes a noteworthy addition to the oil and gas story of the Netherlands. It was a privilege to be part of the organising community for the conference. Many thanks to all the geoscientists who made it possible, and congratulations to the editors for putting together a volume that every discerning bookshelf would like to embrace. Dave Loftus Technical Program Chairman Introduction The exploitation of natural gas resources in the Netherlands contributes nowadays a direct revenue to the State of seven to nine milliard guilders per year. The present Special Publication of the Royal Geological and Mining Society of the Netherlands (KNGMG) provides an insight into the subsurface geological conditions that allow to produce the gas. It also shows how these conditions are investigated and how the knowledge thus gained governs the production, not only of gas but also of oil. The book finds its origin in the 1993 International Conference of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, held in The Hague. On the occasion of this Conference, the Petroleum Geological Circle (pGK) of the KNGMG compiled the 'Synopsis: Petroleum geology of the Netherlands - 1993' of which 4000 copies were distributed. It is this 'Synopsis' that initiated the idea to assemble the contributions on the country's petroleum geology presented at the Conference. The Synopsis now constitutes the first of the articles collected. Where possible, these are arranged in stratigraphic order. One article on a related subject was added. Invitations to authors were aimed from the outset at coverage of the petroleum geology of the Netherlands. No wonder that most contributions come from the Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM) and the Geological Survey of the Netherlands (RGD). Papers were further handed in by scientists of Amoco, Continental Netherlands Oil Co., Exxon Exploration Co., Shell Research and the Delft University of Technology. These contributions are placed in a wider economic and technological context by the keynote addresses of the Conference, which with the Synopsis now form the first part of the book. These addresses originated at the Ministry of Economic Affairs of the Netherlands, at Elf Aquitaine and at the Royal Dutch/Shell Group of Companies. The book fills a gap in the geological literature on the Netherlands by bringing together up-to-date contributions to the petroleum geology of the country. It addresses a wide range of subjects. These include the characterization of reservoirs in single gas and oil fields by means of 3D seismic and borehole logging, the hydrocarbon habitat of the West Netherlands Basin and the regional Rotliegend facies distribution. The stratigraphic nomenclature in the book reflects the transition during 1993 from the 'NAM & RGD' nomenclature published in 1980, to the revised nomenclature compiled by the Geological Survey. The editors owe many thanks to the authors for their contributions and to the reviewers for their comments. They particularly mention the staff members of the NAM and RGD, who produced and reviewed the bulk of the present volume's content. They gratefully acknowledge the financial support by Shell Internationale Petroleum Maatschappij, which allowed for most of the colour prints in this publication. They thank Exxon Exploration Company for financing the printing of the 'RotIiegend' maps. Finally, they mention J. Halfon and P.J. Grantham, who did not live to see their contributions published.

Ook het verhaal van de 72 verdronken dorpen en de 100.000 mensen die omgekomen zouden zijn in de golven is een dergelijke legende. Laten we eens een paar zaken gaan ontrafelen. Groote Waard De Groote Waard was de naam voor twee verschillende begrippen die vaak door elkaar gehaald worden. - Polder “Groote Waard”: Bij Geertruidenberg lagen de twee polders “de Venen beneden den Bergh” en “de Venen boven den Bergh” die samen de polder “Groote Waard” vormden.

Alison Monaghan1*, Jonathan Ford2, Antoni Milodowski2, David McInroy1, Timothy Pharaoh2, Jeremy Rushton2, Mike Browne1, Anthony Cooper2, Andrew Hulbert2 and Bruce Napier2 1 British Geological Survey, Murchison House, West Mains Road, Edinburgh, EH9 3LA, UK. 2 British Geological Survey, Kingsley Dunham Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG, UK. * Corresponding author (email [email protected] (Approx.15,600 words in total, 25 figures) SUMMARY: Subsurface 3D geological models of aquifer and seal rock systems from two contrasting analogue sites have been created as the first step in an investigation into methodologies for geological storage of carbon dioxide in saline aquifers. Development of the models illustrates the utility of an integrated approach using digital techniques and expert geological knowledge to further geological understanding. The models visualize a faulted, gently dipping Permo-Triassic succession in Lincolnshire and a complex faulted and folded Devono-Carboniferous succession in eastern Scotland. The Permo-Triassic is present in the Lincolnshire model to depths of -2 km OD, and includes the aquifers of the Sherwood Sandstone and Rotliegendes groups. Model-derived thickness maps test and refine Permian palaeogeography, such as the location of a carbonate reef and its associated seaward slope, and the identification of aeolian dunes. Analysis of borehole core samples established average 2D porosity values for the Rotliegendes (16%) and Sherwood Sandstone (20%) groups, and the Zechstein (5%) and Mercia Mudstone (<10%) groups, which are favourable for aquifer and seal units respectively. Core sample analysis has revealed a complex but well understood diagenetic history.

  • Putting Frisian Names on the Map
    GEGN.2/2021/68/CRP.68 15 March 2021 English United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names Second session New York, 3 – 7 May 2021 Item 12 of the provisional agenda * Geographical names as culture, heritage and identity, including indigenous, minority and regional languages and multilingual issues Putting Frisian names on the map Submitted by the Netherlands** * GEGN.2/2021/1 ** Prepared by Jasper Hogerwerf, Kadaster GEGN.2/2021/68/CRP.68 Introduction Dutch is the national language of the Netherlands. It has official status throughout the Kingdom of the Netherlands. In addition, there are several other recognized languages. Papiamentu (or Papiamento) and English are formally used in the Caribbean parts of the Kingdom, while Low-Saxon and Limburgish are recognized as non-standardized regional languages, and Yiddish and Sinte Romani as non-territorial minority languages in the European part of the Kingdom. The Dutch Sign Language is formally recognized as well. The largest minority language is (West) Frisian or Frysk, an official language in the province of Friesland (Fryslân). Frisian is a West Germanic language closely related to the Saterland Frisian and North Frisian languages spoken in Germany. The Frisian languages as a group are closer related to English than to Dutch or German. Frisian is spoken as a mother tongue by about 55% of the population in the province of Friesland, which translates to some 350,000 native speakers. In many rural areas a large majority speaks Frisian, while most cities have a Dutch-speaking majority. A standardized Frisian orthography was established in 1879 and reformed in 1945, 1980 and 2015.

  • Subsurface Spatial Planning for Geothermal Heat Production in Greenport Westland Oostland, the Netherlands
    Proceedings World Geothermal Congress 2010 Bali, Indonesia, 25-29 April 2010 Subsurface Spatial Planning for Geothermal Heat Production in Greenport Westland- Oostland, the Netherlands Wouter A. van Leeuwen, Nick Buik, Mariene Gutierrez-Neri, Ad Lokhorst and Guus Willemsen IF Technology, Postbus 605, 6800 AP Arnhem, the Netherlands [email protected] Keywords: spatial planning, masterplan, modeling, Geothermal energy is a relatively unknown type of energy geothermal energy, greenhouses source in the Netherlands. The rising of oil and gas prices combined with the success of the Bleiswijk project made ABSTRACT geothermal energy an interesting option for the traditionally innovative greenhouse sector in the Netherlands. In 2007 a geothermal project was realized for a tomato Greenhouses have typically a high heat demand. However, grower in Bleiswijk, The Netherlands. This project was the current high gas prices make possible a payback time of realized in a cretaceous sandstone reservoir at a depth of 10 to 15 years for a geothermal project. Such encouraging approximately 1,700 m. Since then, numerous other prospects prompted several other greenhouse owners to greenhouse owners became interested in this energy source. apply for an exploration permit for geothermal heat. The However, the subsurface area required for the heating of a majority of the applications came from an area where the greenhouse is much larger than the areal extent of the concentration of greenhouses is the most dense, initiating a greenhouse itself. Also, in 2008, oil and gas prices reached ‘gold rush’ for these exploration rights for geothermal heat. extremely high levels. This combination of circumstances This area is situated in the west of the Netherlands (see initiated a ‘gold rush’ for the subsurface in order to claim Figure 1) and is known as the Greenport Westland- the rights for the exploration of the geothermal heat Oostland.
