Chapter 16. Environmental Impact of Oil-and Gas-Well Drilling, Production, and Associated Waste Disposal Practices *This chapter discusses the way in which drilling fluids, drilling muds, well cuttings, and well-treatment chemicals contribute to pollution. Studies of well blowouts and possible ...
Once the site has been selected, scientists survey the area to determine its boundaries, and conduct environmental impact studies if necessary. The oil company may need lease agreements, titles and right-of way accesses before drilling the land. For off-shore sites, legal jurisdiction must be det...
Their model used sophisticated algorithms to analyze almost all of the retained geochemistry data in order to predict if a given groundwater sample was negatively impacted by recent oil and gas drilling. The data comparison showed that methane contamination cases in New York — a state ...
