State the primary legal issue raised by hydraulic fracturing; state the primary environmental issues raised by hydraulic fracturing; and state what part of hydraulic fracturing plays or will play in meeting U. S. energy needs. Finding more energy sources including oil and natural gas will help to meet the energy demand and help provide our country with reliable fuel supplies. The prediction is that oil and natural gas will continue to provide more than half of the energy needs for American

Discussion on the Ethical Implications of Hydraulic Fracturing by: Sebastian Potes 7/16/13 ! Abstract As concern grows over the environmental impact of hydraulic fracturing‚ implementing policy that protects people and their environment from these potential dangers becomes an essential piece of the renewable energy picture. Hydraulic fracturing‚ or fracking‚ is the technique of extracting oil and natural gas trapped under ground by injecting a mixture of water‚ sand‚ and chemicals into the

Characteristics of a Good Hydraulic Fluid Viscosity Viscosity is a measure of a hydraulic fluid’s resistance to flow. It is a hydraulic fluid’s most important characteristic and has a significant impact on the operation of the system. When a hydraulic oil is too thin (low viscosity)‚ it does not seal sufficiently. This leads to leakage and wear of parts. When a hydraulic oil is too thick (high viscosity)‚ the fluid will be more difficult to pump through the system and may reduce operating

Fracturing of America Even though Hydraulic Fracturing is changing our dependence on fossil fuels‚ it could very well be changing our most precious resource‚ our water supplies. The average fracturing site uses an estimated 70 to 140 billion gallons of water to fracture 35‚000 wells in the United States annually. This is approximately the yearly water consumption of 40 to 80 cities each with a population of 50‚000. This water is infused with chemicals that seep back into our groundwater and contaminate

Hydraulic Fracturing Part A: A Background on Hydraulic Fracturing Hydraulic Fracturing‚ otherwise know as fracking‚ is a relatively new development in natural gas extraction industry. Even though natural gas extraction has been around for decades‚ the process of mining for natural gas in dense shale was not economically feasible until now. As defined by what-is-fracking.com‚ “Hydraulic fracturing is the process of drilling for natural gas and oil underneath the ground‚” (1). In order
