Fracking: Underneath the cracked shell Recently in the Coal State‚ aka Kentucky‚ a new way of getting oil has come. Fracking has become more and more popular in the US and in the world. Fracking consists of drilling‚ and cracking into the ground vertically and horizontally. This new method uses water pressure and thousands of chemicals to pump the oil to the surface of the land. As a resident in Kentucky‚ I leave around some empty land out in the country side. Recently‚ I heard about KGA (Kentucky

ENPE 573 – Unconventional Gas Exploitation Introduction to Shale Gas Classification‚ Formation‚ & Extraction Abstract The production of conventional gas has been declining over the last few years due to dwindling reserves. To counter-act this decline‚ companies are quickly turning to unconventional gas plays that can offer even greater reserves as shown in figure 1. Unfortunately‚ recovering unconventional gas is a very difficult process that requires advanced stimulation and/or

Shale gas is natural gas formed from being trapped within shale formations.[1] Shale gas has become an increasingly important source of natural gas in the United States since the start of this century

reliance on oil and coal. Natural gas plants produce about half the CO2 pollution of a typical coal plant‚ and modern facilities greatly reduce pollution from nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide‚ which contribute to acid rain. In addition to the environmental argument for natural gas‚ reserves have been found throughout the United States‚ decreasing our reliance on other countries for energy. Much of natural gas’ potential lies in our ability to capture it affordably and safely from deep shale formations

The fossil records beautifully preserved in the shale rock‚ tell the story of the Cambrian Explosion‚ a period where organisms evolved at an explosive rate into many diverse creatures that are the ancestors to many of the organisms today‚ including humans. Over the past century‚ the Burgess Shale has unearthed new books to earth’s history and still holds new secrets for scientist to find. The discovery of the rock formation

Shale gas is natural gas formed from being trapped within shale formations. Shale gas has become an increasingly important source of natural gas in the United States over the past decade‚ and interest has spread to potential gas shale’s in the rest of the world. In 2000 shale gas provided only 1% of U.S. natural gas production; due to rising oil prices gas prices have also been affected by the rise therefore there was big demand for gas in the US which in 2010 it was over 20% and the U.S. government’s

It could be argued that the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede Ltd. (“Calgary Stampede”) currently resides in the Conservation Phase of its development because it is strongly connected with Calgary’s community spirit‚ it helps to define western cultures‚ and it has been around for over 100 years. A business in the Conservation phase is in a state of maturity‚ having more certainty and stability in the marketplace. The Calgary Stampede is deeply involved within the Calgary and Alberta communities and

The Marcellus Shale formation is located in Pennsylvania‚ New York‚ Ohio and West Virginia. This land is very popular because of its tight‚ deep shale formations which have the potential to hold a lot of natural gas. The Marcellus Shale is large and covers a widespread amount of land area in the Northeastern United States. Researchers say that there is a potential for the Marcellus Shale formation to hold around 500 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in its shale deposits deep beneath the earth’s
