The Fracking Controversy A controversial new method of extracting natural gas from the earth has become a danger for Americans. This method is called Hydraulic Fracturing‚ or Fracking. This drilling has made it possible to retrieve methane gas trapped in the shale rock that lays thousands of feet below the ground. For some‚ fracking can be seen as a good thing for our country. Fracking is boosting the nation’s economy‚ creating jobs and energy export opportunities‚ and strengthening the energy

significant public health concerns. The first concern is the potentially damaging impact of natural gas drilling on fresh water resources. A new process conducted by drilling companies has the potential to drastically increase pollution exposure‚ and concerned members of the public‚ some state and federal regulators are keeping a close watch on the process. The method combines a new form of horizontal drilling with hydraulic fracturing – more commonly known as fracking. This process blasts open fissures

2014 Team 2: Oilfield Services Industry Analysis Oilfield service companies have had a stronghold in the drilling industry since the advent of directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing. While the former was first used on production well sites in the late 1940s‚ the latter was invented in 1947 by Floyd Farris and J.B. Clark. However even with these technologies being available as early as the 1940s‚ the first real commercially repeatable systems was used in the 1990’s‚ pioneered by

fire burns down the platform‚ the explosion‚ the chaos. Can we imagine ourselves if we happen to be there at that time? All of this is because of a single blowout. The largest accidental oil rig blowout in the world was during the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explosion on the 20th April 2010 at the Gulf of Mexico‚ Louisiana‚ United States. The explosion killed 11 workers and injured 16 others. (Slide 4) So‚ what is a blowout? A blowout is the uncontrolled release of crude oil or natural gas from
