Shale oil is a high-qualitycrude oilthat lies between layers of shale rock, impermeable mudstone, or siltstone. Oil companies produce shale oil by fracturing the rock formations that contain the layers of oil in a process known as "fracking." ...

What is the significance of using oil with an immersion lens? Why can't oil be used with any other lens? What is the difference between health and wellness? What is shale oil and how is this heavy oil produced? What are tar sands, or oil sands? What is bitumen, and how is it extr...
He quotes Henri Nouwen approvingly: “The central question is, Are [they] truly men and women of God, people with an ardent desire to dwell in God’s presence, to listen to God’s voice, to look at God’s beauty, to touch God’s incarnate Word and to taste fully God’s infinite ...
At an oil sands mine, the overburden is stripped away and large mining machines load the sand into trucks that haul it to a nearby processing plant. At the processing plant, the oil sand is crushed and then treated with hot water and chemicals to liberate the bitumen. The liberated bitumen...

Shale Gas vs. Conventional Gas Conventional gas reservoirs are created when natural gas migrates toward the Earth's surface from an organic-rich source formation into highly permeable reservoir rock, where it is trapped by an overlying layer of impermeable rock. In contrast, shale gas resources fo...
Whether we are talking shale oil or oil shale, there is a common denominator: both cost more per barrel for extraction than more conventional oil deposits. This means that both are especially vulnerable to market forces. While oil shale could potentially be an enormous source of oil, it is s...
Oil shale is a type of sedimentary rock formation that can be used to produceoil and gas. Oil shale can produce oil and gas because of the presence of kerogen, a type of organic matter that burns when exposed to flame. Although oil shale can be used as a source ofpetroleum, the diffic...
