Russia, China, Venezuela and much of Europe drills off of our coast. We should be banning deep water drilling and allowing drilling closer to shore where it is safer and more cost effective. The only plan that could be more foolish then the one we are now chasing is to try to cap this drilling and tax... Perhaps you have heard of such a foolish idea lately?
What else can I help you with?
Is it true that there is oil in the Gulf of Mexico?
Yes. An explosion occurred because of deep-water oil drilling.
What benefits do you have putting oil riggs in the water?
Offshore drilling rigs can reach deep oil reservoirs that lie below the sea floor. Initially, our oil came from discoveries on land, however in search of new oil fields, it was necessary to drill wells offshore. Oil companies have made very large oil discoveries in deep water regions in the Gulf of Mexico. See related link.
How do you build a small water well drilling machine for home use to drill a 100 foot deep water well?
Building a small water well drilling machine for home use to drill a 100-foot deep well requires specialized equipment and expertise due to safety and legal regulations. It is recommended to consult professional well drilling companies and obtain necessary permits for drilling. Attempting to create a DIY drilling machine for a well of this depth may pose safety risks and result in ineffective or failed outcomes.
When did deep water oil drilling begin?
It became economical to go to water depths greater than 1000 ft with dynamically positioned semi-submersibles drilling rigs around 1972.
Where does offshore drilling take place?
Offshore drilling takes place in various bodies of water, primarily in continental shelf areas of oceans and seas. Major regions for offshore drilling include the Gulf of Mexico, the North Sea, and the coastlines of countries like Brazil, Nigeria, and Australia. These sites are typically selected for their potential oil and gas reserves beneath the seabed. Drilling operations can occur at varying depths, from shallow waters to deep offshore locations.
Where is the offshore drilling moratorium located for viewing?
A moratorium is a stoppage of pause (in this, of deep water, offshore oil drilling). It is difficult to view a stoppage - since nothing happens when a process is on pause or stopped. ;)
Sigsbee deep is the deepest point in what body of water?
The Gulf of Mexico
How deep is the of Mexico?
how deep is the gulf of mexico
What are the examples of deep exploration project?
Finding and drilling for oil deep in the ocean.
How deep is the well water?
The depth of well water can vary depending on the location and type of well. It can range from a few feet to several hundred feet deep in some cases. The depth of the well water is typically determined during the drilling and installation process of the well.
How is clean water improved by drilling deep wells in Africa?
Drilling deep wells in Africa improves access to clean water by tapping into underground aquifers that are less susceptible to contamination from surface pollutants. These deep wells can provide a more reliable and sustainable water source, reducing the reliance on shallow wells that may dry up or become contaminated. Additionally, the installation of proper filtration and sanitation systems at these wells ensures that the water is safe for drinking and other uses, significantly enhancing public health. Overall, deep wells contribute to better water quality and availability for communities in need.
When did the deep sea drilling project take place?
in 1968
