Assessing the possibility of gas leakage through drilling induced fractures in shallow formations

Authors: A. Tsopela, G. de Bruin, A. Moghadam, N. Versteijlen, Dr. M. Wilpshaar
What is the hypothesis? In recent literature it is proposed that drilling always creates fractures around the wellbore (drilling induced fractures) that serve as migration pathway for gas in shallow (< 1000 m depth) sediments. This...

Predicting gas production from future gas discoveries in the Netherlands: quantity, location, timing, quality

Authors: Dr. J. Lutgert, Dr. J. Breunese, Dr. H. Mijnlieff
Recent policy and market developments have raised the question not only as to how much gas remains to be discovered in the Netherlands but also where and when it will be produced and of what quality. These questions are addressed by...
