Summary Information
* Operator: NAM
* Country: Netherlands
* Location: Slochteren
* Production start: 1963
* Partners:
* Type: Gas
* Estimated Reserves: Original producible gas reserves of around 2,700 billion m³
* Production Volume: Maximum per day - approx. 350 million m3

+++ Description
* An on shore field
* One of the biggest Natural Gas Fields in the world, with original producible gas reserves of around 2,700 billion m³
* Already recovered: approx. 1700 billion m3; still recoverable: 1000 to 1100 billion m3, so 60% of the gas has already been produced
* Depth: almost 3000 metres; thickness of gas reservoir rock: approx. 100 metres
* Extent of reservoir: approx. 900 km2
* Original reservoir pressure: approx. 350 bar
* Number of wells drilled: approx. 300, spread over 29 production clusters
* Groningen field has long-standing role as swing field: if gas demand exceeds total supply from small fields, Groningen field makes up the difference

+++ History
* 1959 - NAM discovered the famous Groningen gas field near Slochteren
* 1963 - Production started
