Get ready to put it all together! Please get your interactive notebook. Read the board. Laptop safely off your desk.

Brainstorm game! 60 seconds

Oil and gas formation “Look at the last carbon cycle. Put your finger on the part of this cycle that has the same information as the last page” check where kids are pointing (upper left quadrant) Box in processes in red. Circle locations in green. Students put up on board, as in last sheet. “The carbon cycle has a fast loop and a very slow loop. Which of these processes look like they involve a lot of time?” (formation of limestone and fossil fuels) “Next to the word Time, add in the process word “formation” to remind yourself that these materials are being formed.”

Coal, Oil and Natural Gas are fossil fuels

fossil fuels contain hydrocarbons with lots of bonds- more bonds to break = more energy

Add to the Carbon Cycle notes: Energy = The ability to do work Fuel = a substance which can be used to provide energy

Finding the oil 3D seismic imaging is like an ultrasound

Drill to the oil, pump it out Primary oil recovery: oil flows into well because of gravity and pressure.

Spindletop – Beaumont 1903

Secondary recovery: hydrocarbons must be forced out by water (or gases like CO2) to maintain pressure in the system Horsehead pump Injection well Production well

Tertiary recovery – a base like soap is added to water to move the last hydrocarbons Base added

The current oil Boom! 2005 – Fracking technology makes more reserves economically viable 2011 – current boom explodes with fracking US crude output expected to crest around 9.5 million barrels per day in 2016, then begin to decline in 2020. (7.5 million barrels/day projected through 2040) Tradeoffs!

Quick check – put the following steps in order! A. Shale rock fractures releasing petrochemicals B. Borehole drilled vertically past water table C. Natural gas and petroleum rises through well back to surface and is collected in tanks. D. Propants keep fractures open and gas flowing E. Fracking fluids sent down well under pressure F. Horizontal drilling through shale layer Check it! B, F, E, A, D, C

Distillation column at refinery Purpose: to separate crude oil into different products based on length of hydrocarbon chains! Distillation column at refinery
