The research of Wortel has focused on physical aspects of plate tectonics, especially the geophyisical development of the Mediterranean Sea area. In the early 2010s his research group expected that a new fault was forming between Europe and Africa, with the Eurasian Plate being thrust under the African Plate, which had been the reverse. He has also performed research into the dynamics and deformation of the lithosphere, seismic energy release and tectonic processes along convergent plate boundaries. He worked on integration of numerical models, with observations coming from geology, geophysics and geodesy. Wortel and his research group in 1992 developed an hypothesis on lateral migration of slab detachment. Early in his career he performed research in the Andes with his promotor, Vlaar. He also worked together with Sierd Cloetingh on modeling intraplate stress.

In 2018, Wortel became head of the research programme DeepNL, of the Dutch Research Council, which was initiated to look into the long term consequences of the winning of gas in the Groningen gas field. Specific research projects included subsidence, risk analysis, and earthquake forecasting. Wortel called it a unique project, comparable with the Dutch efforts of protection from the sea.
