What do petroleum and natural gas have in common?

Describe an impermeable rock where oil and natural gas deposits are found?

How does an oil platform work?

What is fracking?

Petroleum and natural gas are both fossil fuels that are formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. They are both used as sources of energy and are non-renewable resources.

An impermeable rock where oil and natural gas deposits are found is typically shale or mudstone. These rocks have very low permeability, meaning that the oil and gas molecules are trapped within the rock and cannot easily flow through it.

An oil platform is a large structure that is used to extract oil or natural gas from beneath the ocean floor. It is typically located in offshore drilling sites and consists of a platform or rig that houses the drilling equipment and workers. The platform is connected to the seabed by a series of pipes that bring the oil or gas up to the surface.

Fracking, short for hydraulic fracturing, is a method used to extract oil and natural gas from rock formations that are otherwise difficult to access. It involves injecting a high-pressure mixture of water, sand, and chemicals into the rock to create small fractures, allowing the oil and gas to flow more freely to the surface. Critics of fracking raise concerns about its environmental impact, including potential groundwater contamination and earthquakes.
