They drill vertically until the KOP (Kick-off point), then there’s a deviation and it becomes a deviated well. That’s what’s called “directional drilling”.
Drill, then put the casing (steel? tube), then pump cement. Then drill with a smaller bit so that it can go through the casing, put a smaller casing, cement, etc.
This is not fracking as you see that the drillers tapped directly into the reservoir. So everyone is happy.
What is happening is this, there reasons that a well can`t be drilled straight down, so they have developed a process to control the angle the bit is drilling, in the old days it was called “whip stock”. by using a drilling head that can be directed to change it`s path and using flexible “drill string” or shaft , the targeted source can be? reached
this is what is called fracking in the video. they drill down into the earth to shale deposits and set off explosions to release natural gas, but what the video doesn’t show is the toxic chemicals they pump down into the ground and the effects it does to the water supplies , surrounding areas , and the effects it has on human life, its a disgusting way to extract the gas, people have had gas coming out their? water pipes and people have been poisoned by the chemicals..
hahaha. I was being sarcastic… that’s why my “haha”, as the video has no explanation at all,? I’d love to hear a narration to understand every step… Anyway, I found this. Enjoy.

Obviously…? What are they pumping into the hole near the middle of the video? How and why are they drilling sideways? My point was the video would be more informative if someone was narrating.
“…In? 2001, a special task force on energy policy convened by Vice President Dick Cheney recommended that Congress exempt hydraulic fracturing from the Safe Drinking Water Act. /../
The oil-gas industry is the only industry exempt from the SDWA”???

OSE II the non toxic oil spill clean up that can prevent natural resource damage even in spills like the Exxon Valdez, and the BP Gulf spill. OSE II when permitted in the drilling response plans, would give the public confidence drilling could occur and natural resources? protected at the same time.
The cuttings from the drilling are removed by a drilling fluid that is continuously circulated down the drill pipe and up the well bore. In the video the drill fluid is invisible for clarity.
The grey fluid is cement. The cement is? left for around 20 hours to set, before drilling is continued. At the bottom of the pipe is a check valve that insures the cement cannot flow back up the well.
In the last step a slotted liner is installed and the well “open hole” produces oil for use in your car!
I always imagined oil reserves to be massive underground caverns lol.
So they’re actually thick bands of oil saturated? rocky stuff which the oil seeps through?
This is how we drill in Pennsylvania in the Marcellus Shale. As far as I can? see, this is not for pipeline. You can see the formation they want to be in when they make their kick. Good illustration. As for the guy who said this looks pretty easy. The technolgy makes it look easy. The roughnecks make it happen above ground.

So? cool

and make sure the CEMENT RETURNS TO SURFACE so the? people who do the wellbore schematics don’t have to calculate it!

you don’t know? they’re drilling ¬¬? hahha

you really should be…it’s quite the lucrative business to be in? in case you havent looked at the prices at the pump lately
so you can drive a car, heat your home, cook your food, power your machinery to build greater things…stop? being such a tree hugging hippie bitch

It would be nice if? someone was explaining what is happening in the video.
I? don’t have a car. i live near the Mexican Gulph (IN MEXICO), and i’m angry.
Its men, raping mother earth’s ass…?
Can someone explain to me what is being shown in the video?
?
great? video

I think this is more for pipelines than well drilling.? So it goes in a line from one point to another rather than circular.
Interesting. I? thought once it got underground it actually described circles out from the site. I wish this also showed the frakking process.
