Drilling and Beyond: A Look at Horizontal Drilling

wordpress.com When matters of oil and energy production are the top concern, industry professionals such as Paul Favret are always on the lookout for areas of improvement. Fracking has been revolutionary in its role as a novel method to extract oil and gas from underground. At present, one of the oil and energy industry’s most interesting innovations is horizontal drilling, which Paul Favret discusses in this blog post.   The working concept in horizontal drilling is quite simple. It’s all about maximizing the source of extractable materials. If, for instance, the drill comes across a thickness of 100 feet of rock, drilling through it at the same angle would yield precisely whatever 100 feet of rock would yield. If the drill, however, can be bent at a different angle, then essentially, the operation would be tapping more of what a specific layer of materials can provide.    It so happens that layered rock can stretch out far and wide. According to Paul Favret, a 100-ft. thick layer ca

Organizations that Help Underprivileged Children through School

  globalgiving.org The problem of underprivileged children without access to education is a pressing one, notes Paul Favret. In many parts of the world, children from low-income families cannot attend school due to the high cost of education and other associated school expenses. Unfortunately, this means that they are missing out on an education that could potentially lift them out of poverty. Fortunately, some initiatives aim to address this problem. One example is the Global Partnership for Education, which provides financial support to low-income countries so that they can provide quality education for all children. However, much more must be done to ensure all children have access to education. Providing scholarships is an effective means of solving the problem of underprivileged children failing to receive a quality education. By covering tuition costs and other associated expenses, scholarships can help children from low-income families attend school. In addition, some groups,

Notable Projects Worked on by Geophysicists

scurbatgeophysics.com  Paul Favret explains that geophysics is the study of the physical processes that shape the Earth and its environment. He mentions that, over the centuries, there have been many notable geophysics projects that have helped further our understanding and deepen our knowledge of our planet. Notable geophysics projects include Galileo Galilei using a telescope to observe and record the phases of Venus in 1609, which was one of the first observations that supported the Copernican model of our very own solar system and placed the Sun at the center instead of the Earth. Another is James Cook sailing to Tahiti in 1772 to observe and, amazingly, record a transit of Venus across the Sun. This data was used to help calculate the distance from the Sun to Earth (known as the astronomical unit). Paul Favret points out that projects have become more complex in more recent times. Here are some of them: - The Apollo Moon landing missions, during which seismometers were placed o
