    Hydrofracking - Social Context of Business

    To meet the demand of oil in today’s oil dependent society, Talisman Energy is looking to exploit a mine located in Hudson Hope, British Colombia. The most suitable extraction process is hydraulic fracturing, which currently presents several environmental concerns to the residents located near the mine, and a representation of the general public who believe that hydraulic fracturing is not an ethical method of extraction. Talisman Energy has recently been granted a long term contract to utilize fresh water from BC Hydro’s Williston Reservoir. Local residents are concerned about the additives used in Talismans fracking process, as well as the depletion of their fresh water source.…

    Hydrofracking Research Paper

    Marcellus Shale is a geologic formation containing natural gas that stretches across much of the Eastern U.S., from New York to Tennessee. It has been a topic of hot debate over the past few years and continues to be a point of contention between landowners, governments, institutions, and private companies, even earning the attention of President Obama in his 2012 State of the Union speech. While geologists have known of the Marcellus Shale for years, early estimates of the amount of natural gas contained within it were fairly low. However, the use of the hydraulic fracturing (hydrofracking) drilling technique has dramatically increased the amount of natural gas that is recoverable (Geology.com). Current estimates suggest that reserves in the Marcellus Shale could meet U.S. energy demand for six years (Buurma, 2012).…

    Mtbe in Missouri

    Starting in the 1970’s Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) was put in gasoline to boost octane. In 1999 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended phasing out the use of MTBE which was found to be a cancer causing chemical. MTBE contaminated water thru public and private water wells. In 2002 Missouri lawmakers decided to phase out MTBE. The state wide phase out was complete on July 1, 2005…

    The Spindletop Story

    On January 10th, 1901, 10:30 AM, possibly the biggest and most influential events in all of oil history occurred in Beaumont, Texas. The Texas Oil Company, now known as Texaco, struck oil at a salt dome in southern Beaumont Texas. This was the biggest amount of oil the world had ever seen at the time. These wells on Spindletop would change the way we drilled, collected, used, and sold oil. Spindletop even raised concerns about conserving the oil. This gusher would change the way oil was drilled, collected, used and sold. The Spindletop oil field produced more than 20% of the United State’s oil at that time. Spindletop has an intriguing story that expands before and after the actual gusher, and that story involved many people…

    The Pros And Cons Of Fracking

    Fracking, when not carried out safely has been known to contaminate our groundwater due to leakages of the chemicals used in the procedure. Fracking has also been linked to cause small earthquakes in nearby areas where fracking is taking place. Some people also fear fracking because of the BP incident that happened back in April of 2010 where millions of barrels of oil were spilled into the Gulf of Mexico. In his chapter, “Ghost Ridin’ Grandpa,” Gold explains what the problem was for BP and how it could have been avoided The BP oil spill was the result of not performing the tests needed to make sure that the cement used for the well formed a solid seal. The cement did not form the proper barrier that was needed and as a result when BP’s drill bit arrived at the targeted site, combustible natural gas mixed with petroleum, and they ignited as they pushed up to the surface causing the well to spill an uncontrollable amount into the Gulf of Mexico. This accident could have been totally avoidable had the proper tests been taken and the proper tools for the well had been used. It is at this point when Dr. Claude E. Cooke Jr., otherwise known as a legend of hydraulic fracturing, invented a new tool for oil wells that will make drilling for oil safer. Cooke’s tool functions as a thermometer as it takes measurement of temperatures within a well and by looking at these temperatures companies can make sure that their wells are in a…

    Stakeholder Analysis- Fracking

    Pursuing hydraulic fracturing as a top manager of Chevron, I will describe the dilemmas that are associated with fracking. The first problem with this procedure is finding the appropriate land and leasing it from the landowners. With talk around the country, it can be difficult finding land because of landowners’ personal experience with the practice of hydraulic fracturing. In southwestern Pennsylvania there have been cases of animal birth defects, faucet erosion, stomach pains, and other health issues; in response, according to the New York Times, “Range Resources maintains that a D.E.P. study from 2010 indicates no air pollution of any kind” (Griswold, 2011). The country is torn in the middle of believing in natural gases and not believing. According to Huffington Post, “A report that the Congressional Research Service, which provides policy and legal analysis to the U.S. Congress, published in November also seems to support the industry’s sales pitch: ‘Given existing data, most indications point to the changes in the natural gas industry as positive to the overall U.S. economy’ (Peeples, 2013) but there are still skeptics.…

    Aroclor 1242 Case Study

    In his expert report, Dr. Rodricks faults NCR for not assuming that Aroclor 1242 posed a risk comparable to the higher chlorinated Aroclors. An examination of the state of science in the late 1960s and early 1970s refutes this view. At that time, the scientific community believed that increased chlorination was associated with increased toxicity. Further, early toxicity studies and occupational threshold limit values supported this conclusion. NCR should not have been expected to conclude that Aroclor 1242 was in the environment because higher chlorinated compounds had been found in ecological samples, nor that its toxicity was equivalent to those of higher chlorinated compounds.…
