Short summary
Hydrocarbon extraction lead to compaction of the gas reservoir which is visible as subsidence on the surface. We have used surface height difference measurements to quantify compaction of the Groningen gas reservoir in the Netherlands. This procedure yielded areas of increased and decreased levels of compaction compared to the existing compaction model in agreement with observed discrepancies in porosity and aquifer activity.
