A database of ground motion recordings, site profiles, and amplification factors from the Groningen gas field in the Netherlands

Earthquake Spectra (2022)

Michail Ntinalexis Pauline P. Kruiver Julian J. Bommer Elmer Ruigrok Adrián Rodríguez-Marek

A comprehensive database that has been used to develop ground motion models for induced earthquakes in the Groningen gas field is provided in a freely accessible online repository. The database includes more than 8500 processed ground motion recordings from 87 earthquakes of local magnitude M L between 1.8 and 3.6, obtained from a large network of surface accelerographs and borehole geophones placed at 50 m depth intervals to a depth of 200 m. The 5%-damped pseudo-acceleration spectra and Fourier amplitude spectra of the records are also provided. Measured shear-wave velocity (V S ) profiles, obtained primarily from seismic Cone Penetration Tests (CPTs), are provided for 80 of the ∼100 recording stations. A model representing the regional dynamic soil properties is presented for the entire gas field plus a 5 km onshore buffer zone, specifying lithology, V S , and damping for all layers above the reference baserock horizon located at about 800 m depth. Transfer functions and frequency-dependent amplification factors from the reference rock horizon to the surface for the locations of the recording stations are also included. The database provides a valuable resource for further refinement of induced seismic hazard and risk modeling in Groningen as well as for generic research in site response of thick, soft soil deposits and the characteristics of ground motions from small-magnitude, shallow-focus induced earthquakes.

Key Points A series of triaxial compression tests were performed on methane hydrate-bearing sediments and hydrate-free sediments with different amounts of fines content and at three levels of density The rise in fines content and decrease in void ratio enhanced the peak shear strength and promoted dilation behavior of methane hydrate-bearing sediments The presence of methane hydrate increased the stress ratios at the critical state of methane hydrate-bearing sediments with various amounts of fines content

Current challenges in monitoring, discrimination, and management of induced seismicity related to underground industrial activities: A European perspective

Reviews of Geophysics (2017)

Francesco Grigoli Simone Cesca Enrico Priolo Antonio Pio Rinaldi John Clinton

Abstract Due to the deep socioeconomic implications, induced seismicity is a timely and increasingly relevant topic of interest for the general public. Cases of induced seismicity have a global distribution and involve a large number of industrial operations, with many documented cases from as far back to the beginning of the twentieth century. However, the sparse and fragmented documentation available makes it difficult to have a clear picture on our understanding of the physical phenomenon and consequently in our ability to mitigate the risk associated with induced seismicity. This review presents a unified and concise summary of the still open questions related to monitoring, discrimination, and management of induced seismicity in the European context and, when possible, provides potential answers. We further discuss selected critical European cases of induced seismicity, which led to the suspension or reduction of the related industrial activities.

Developing a model for the prediction of ground motions due to earthquakes in the Groningen gas field

Netherlands Journal of Geosciences – Geologie en Mijnbouw (2017)

Julian J. Bommer B. Dost Benjamin Edwards Pauline P. Kruiver Michail Ntinalexis

Abstract Major efforts are being undertaken to quantify seismic hazard and risk due to production-induced earthquakes in the Groningen gas field as the basis for rational decision-making about mitigation measures. An essential element is a model to estimate surface ground motions expected at any location for each earthquake originating within the gas reservoir. Taking advantage of the excellent geological and geophysical characterisation of the field and a growing database of ground-motion recordings, models have been developed for predicting response spectral accelerations, peak ground velocity and ground-motion durations for a wide range of magnitudes. The models reflect the unique source and travel path characteristics of the Groningen earthquakes, and account for the inevitable uncertainty in extrapolating from the small observed magnitudes to potential larger events. The predictions of ground-motion amplitudes include the effects of nonlinear site response of the relatively soft near-surface deposits throughout the field.

Comparing Waveforms by Digitization and Simulation of Waveforms for Four Parkfield Earthquakes Observed in Station DBN, The Netherlands

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (2006)

B. Dost

Waveforms from the 2004 Parkfield earthquake are compared with three earlier events in 1922, 1934, and 1966, all recorded in station dbn, The Netherlands, at 80° epicentral distance. Digitization of analog records and simulation of digital data enabled the correlation of surface waves for all events. Normalized correlation values are greater than 0.8 for the Parkfield events themselves, compared to values less than 0.5 for correlation with other events in the same region, either with a different mechanism at close distances (1983 Coalinga and 2003 San Simeon) or with the same mechanism, but at larger distances along the same fault system (1984 Morgan Hill). We find that waveforms from sources with the same mechanism show the highest correlations. Waveform amplitudes of the Parkfield events are similar within the accuracy of the calibration of the instrumentation.
