However, eleven boreholes at the site, which opened in the 1960s, must remain open for a year in case of a “harsh winter”. Despite the closure, experts warn that earthquakes could continue in the region.
The underground gas fields near Groningen in the north of the Netherlands are the largest gas reserves in Europe. For more than two decades, residents have complained about earthquakes directly attributed to the exploitation of the deposits. Gas production has therefore decreased in recent years. In 2021, only 4.5 billion cubic meters of gas were produced in Groningen. In previous years this was more than 20 billion cubic meters.
Gas production must be completely stopped by 2022. In view of the global energy crisis in the aftermath of Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine, the government has temporarily announced further gas production. (SDA)
