Ineris showcased work that reflected the expertise of its teams in the field of risk prevention in relation to post-exploitation of the mines, featuring two presentations and two posters.
The first study related to the work done for GEODERIS concerning the monitoring of a former coal basin in Nord-Pas-de-Calais:
- Forecast and mitigation of the pressure build-up in a depleted mine gas reservoir: case study in a French coal basin, Stéphane Lafortune
The second study related to the consultancy work carried out for an operator for the preparation of a definitive cessation of works declaration file (Déclaration d'arrêt définitif des travaux – DADT).
- An example of a comprehensive technical and administrative mine closure process on the Urcuit mining site (France)
Amélie Lecomte
Finally, as posters:
- the work carried out as part of the European POMHAZ project (coordinated by Ineris and involving seven European partners) on Post-mining risk management and multi-hazard approaches for coal mines

GEODERIS: a public interest group (Groupement d'Intérêt Public – GIP) comprising Ineris, BRGM and the Ministry of the Environment. Its mission is to provide the State with assistance and expertise in post-mining matters.
POMHAZ (Post-Mining Multi-Hazards evaluation for land-planning): a project co-financed by the European Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS), the aim of which is to enhance tooling and methodologies for the operational implementation of multi-hazard analyses in mining basins. Coordinated by Ineris, the project brings together four European countries (Germany, France, Greece, and Poland) and seven organisations in the field of post-mining management (Ineris, CERTH, GIG, THGA-DMT, PCC, SRK, UFB).
