my opinion on the North Park Hydraulic Fracturing. Hydraulic Fracturing is a very ingenious way of removing oil from the deep Shale‚ which we have been unable to reach. This method‚ also known as Fracking‚ is also very small. It starts out with a drill rig and a holding tank for the first 3 months‚ but then once the well is dug‚ it looks like another oil drill‚ and will continue to draw oil from the ground for the next 20-30 years. Fracking involves the use of radioactive materials‚ explosives‚ and

INTRODUCTION Oil palm breeding has made remarkable progress in increasing oil palm yield for over 150 years. The four African Elaeis guineensis palms brought over by the Dutch in 1848‚ and planted in Buitenzorg Botanical Garden (now Bogor) Indonesia laid the foundation for the oil palm industry in

• Natural gas is an odorless‚ colorless‚ flammable gas. It is non-toxic and lighter than air. • The gas chiefly consists of methane (CH4)‚ but also contains other hydrocarbons such as ethane‚ butane‚ propane and naphtha. Oil and gas deposits in the North Sea were formed millions of years ago through the decomposition and transformation of organic matter (plant and animal remains). In its primary form‚ natural gas can be used for residential heating and cooking‚ for industrial purposes

The importance of oil to the modern world is unique in character and incredibly far-reaching in scope. It is a singularly autonomous variable in the world economy‚ just as‚ if not more potent and influential than Federal Reserve decisions‚ the Euro-Dollar exchange rate‚ conditions in the U.S or stock market indexes. Oil availability and price affect the output capacity‚ rate of growth and level of inflation throughout the world. In the modern world‚ oil affects transportation‚ heating‚ production

Understanding Gas-Condensate Reservoirs How does a company optimize development of a gas-condensate field‚ when depletion leaves valuable condensate fluids in a reservoir and condensate blockage can cause a loss of well productivity? Gas-condensate fields present this puzzle. The first step must be to understand the fluids and how they flow in the reservoir. Li Fan College Station‚ Texas‚ USA Billy W. Harris Wagner & Brown‚ Ltd.
