Subsurface Knowledge Hub

Energy Beheer Nederland (EBN), together with its partners, has amassed extensive geological data and knowledge of the Dutch subsurface. This expertise and data stem from our unique position as a participant in more than 200 partnerships involved in exploration, production and/or storage activities.

Dutch Subsurface

The Dutch subsurface extends several kilometres below ground and is made up of a variety of geological layers. Through this public information page, we explain how the Dutch subsurface is structured and the role it plays in the Netherlands’ energy supply.

Dutch Exploration Day

During the annual Dutch Exploration Day, experts share the latest knowledge and insights on the deep subsurface with industry professionals. Alongside technical geological deep dives, the event also explores societal challenges and developments.
