Not exact matches

Hydraulic fracturing or «fracking» involves injecting liquids, sand and chemicals under high pressure to break apart tight rock formations underground to allow more oil and gas to escape into the well.

The push by the U.S. energy industry into hydraulic fracking and horizontal drilling unleashed an energy boom, making the United States the world's biggest producer of natural gas and just recently the second - largest producer of oil, surpassing Saudi Arabia.

Oil and gas companies developing fields in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and North Dakota rely on a process called hydraulic fracturing, which produces natural gas by blasting water and chemicals into energy - rich rock formations deep underground.

That surge has coincided in time and place with the boom in unconventional oil and gas extraction such as hydraulic fracturing, or «fracking,» in which high - pressure fluid is injected into the ground to break up the underlying rock and release trapped gas or oil.

Concerns over hydraulic fracturing, an oil and gas extraction method that injects millions of gallons of freshwater and chemicals into shale, have largely focused on potential impacts on water quality.

But according to a panel of geologists at the AAAS Annual Meeting, the culprit isn't hydraulic fracturing, or «fracking,» in which geologists crack open subsurface rocks to extract oil and gas; instead, it's the processes associated with pumping wastewater and other fluids back into the ground.

Fracking — or hydraulic fracturing — is a process in which rocks are deliberately fractured to release oil or gas by injecting highly pressurised fluid into a borehole.

While the study does not prove that hydraulic fracturing actually causes these health problems, the authors say, the hospitalization increases observed over the relatively short time span of observation suggests that healthcare costs of hydraulic fracturing must be factored into the economic benefits of unconventional gas and oil drilling.

It's also critical to a future less dependent on foreign oil: Hydraulic fracturing, «clean coal» technologies, nuclear fuel production, and carbon storage (the keystone of the strategy to address climate change) all count on pushing waste into rock formations below the earth's surface.

Hydraulic fracturing, or «fracking,» is a petroleum - extraction procedure in which millions of gallons of water (as well as sand and chemicals) are injected deep into underground shale beds to crack the rock and release natural gas and oil.

Have into account two factors: oil viscosity may be much or very much higher than the antifreeze fluid (glicol - polipropylene derivates) normally used: the radiator grille has capilare - thickness tubes and an hydraulic circuit (pump, filter, reservoir...) prepared for much less viscosity.

Since then, oil production at other sites across the United States has seen a decline so companies have been fracking, a technique that combines hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, to tap into the oil and gas resources at the Permian.

Then along came hydraulic fracturing (fracking), tight oil, deepwater drilling, Trump, Zinke and Pruitt, and the oil and gas are flowing freely and people are piling into pickups.

Hydraulic Fracturing of Oil Gas Wells Drilled in Shale Hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling have turned unproductive shales into the largest natural gas fields in the World.

Also known as «shale oil,» tight oil is processed into gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels — just like conventional oil — but is extracted using hydraulic fracturing, or «fracking.»

(In its 2005 energy bill, Congress included an exemption from SDWA oversight for the water put into the ground for hydraulic fracturing — a provision that has come to be known as the «Halliburton loophole» after the oil and gas industry service company that is active in the shale industry.)

Onshore and in shallow waters, oil companies use hydraulic fracturing or «fracking» techniques to blast cracks into source rock and release the oil, but fracking at the ocean depths where MacMullin and Wilson wanted to look is exceptionally difficult and expensive, and companies are only just starting to take it on.

The carbon dioxide will be converted into products such as baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and hydrochloric acid, which can be used for hydraulic fracturing in oil and gas fields.

The «America First Energy Plan» web portal also promotes the use of «clean coal» and «reviving America's coal industry,» as well as tapping into the U.S. bounty of shale oil and gas via the use of hydraulic fracturing («fracking»).

A 2014 report from the Groundwater Protection Council documented «continuous and significant regulatory improvement by state oil and gas agencies across the county» and concluded «the risk of fracture fluid intrusion into groundwater from the hydraulic fracturing of deeper conventional and unconventional oil and gas zones can be considered very low.»

It's also critical to a future less dependent on foreign oil: Hydraulic fracturing, «clean coal» technologies, nuclear fuel production and carbon storage (the keystone of the strategy to address climate change) all count on pushing waste into rock formations below the earth's surface.

Fracking, or Fracing as the oil and gas industry ungrammatically spells it, is short for hydraulic fracturing, and the technology is now being used extensively to extract shale gas, by pumping liquids at high pressure into the rock, creating and expanding fissures.

by Nick Snow Oil & Gas Journal US states that embraced hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling staged stronger economic recoveries than those that did not since 2008 when the country plunged into recession, an economist told a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee.

Control, monitor and maintain chemical mixture ratios and concentration levels in the water sent into oil wells during the hydraulic fracturing process to kill sulfate - producing bacteria; lengthening the well's lifespan.
