Fossil fuels are fuels formed by natural processes such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms. The age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years. Fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include coal, petroleum and natural gas. Other more commonly used derivatives of fossil fuels include kerosene and propane. They range from volatile materials with low carbon:hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquid petroleum to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. Methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields, alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates. The theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the Earth's crust over millions of years (see biogenic theory) was first introduced by Georg Agricola in 1556 and later by Mikhail Lomonosov in the 18th century.
The Energy Information Administration estimates that in 2007 the primary sources of energy consisted of petroleum 36.0%, coal 27.4%, natural gas 23.0%, amounting to an 86.4% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world. Non-fossil sources in 2006 included hydroelectric 6.3%, nuclear 8.5%, and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%. World energy consumption was growing about 2.3% per year.
Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and/or hydrogen sulfide. It is formed when layers of decomposing plant and animal matter are exposed to intense heat and pressure supplied by existing under the surface over millions of years. The energy that the plants originally obtained from the sun is stored in the form of chemical bonds in the gas.
Natural gas is a fossil fuel used as a source of energy for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. It is also used as fuel for vehicles and as a chemical feedstock in the manufacture of plastics and other commercially important organic chemicals. It is a non-renewable resource.
Natural gas is found in deep underground rock formations or associated with other hydrocarbon reservoirs in coal beds and as methane clathrates. Petroleum is another resource and fossil fuel found in close proximity to, and with natural gas. Most natural gas was created over time by two mechanisms: biogenic and thermogenic. Biogenic gas is created by methanogenic organisms in marshes, bogs, landfills, and shallow sediments. Deeper in the earth, at greater temperature and pressure, thermogenic gas is created from buried organic material.
This video uses a combination of 3D and 2D Infographics to explain the process of Oil and Natural Gas Exploration. The drilling is to be done in the country Bulgaria. The video was made for Park Place Energy Corporation, U.S.A. Park Place Energy is a U.S. public company engaged in exploration for oil and natural gas. Our management team has extensive international oil and gas experience.Our goal is to produce natural gas from coal seams in the Dobrich region of northeast Bulgaria. Between 1965 and 1990 drilling was conducted in and around the area covered by the Block 1-11 Vranino license, and over 220 wells were safely drilled through the aquifers to the coal formations. From these activities, we know the location of the coal formations. Although the license covers about 400 square kilom...

Drilling wells is one of the most important activities in the process of finding hydrocarbon reservoirs and producing oil and gas from these reservoirs to me. Auxillary Drilling Supervisor, Louise takes us through her daily life onboard the Deepsea Metro I drill ship. Louise overseas the team that make up the drill.
A helpful animation and explanation of how geoscientists use 3D seismic exploration to find and drill for oil and natural gas energy fuel sources with great accuracy despite those energy resources being buried deep beneath the ground.
- Like our Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oilvips - Geologists and geophysicists have agreed on the existence of a "prospect", a potential field. In order to find out if hydrocarbons are indeed trapped in the reservoir rock, we must drill to hit them. Bearing in mind the knowledge acquired about the substratum and the topography of the land, the best position for the installation of the drilling equipment is determined. Generally it is vertically above the point of maximum thickness of the geological layer suspected of containing hydrocarbons. The drillers then make a hole in conditions that are sometimes difficult. Of small diameter (from 20 to 50 cm) this hole will generally go down to a depth of between 2000 and 4000 meters. Exceptionally, certain wells exceed 6000 m. One of them h...

Ever wondered how occurrence of oil and gas deposits are determined. Gone are the days, when 'wild cat drilling' - an industry term for guesswork drilling, used to be the way. Today's oil and gas exploration and production works on scientific methodology of prospecting for oil and gas. The field party goes to remote locations for seismic survey of oil and gas deposits.

there was some problem with the brakes. But it was a 2004 Mercedes-Benz SL500! Did anyone want to bid $8,000? "You could take it apart and sell the pieces one by one, and you'd get a lot more than $8,000," said auctioneer Mark Delzell, making the hard sell. "I had one of these and I backed into a pole and they charged me more. The brakes don't work? The top does, at least. You could coast down a hill with the top down. You'd get a nice breeze." It worked. The seller removed the secret "reserve" price, which means the highest bid would now be accepted, and bidding soon went past $10,000. It was just one of 3,000 cars, trucks, boats and other collector vehicles up for bid at the Mecum Kissimmee Auction at the Silver Spurs Arena, which runs until next Sunday.

http://marxismfestival.org.uk http://socialistworker.co.uk/art/40917/Marxism+2015+reflects+new+mood+for+resistance Over 2,700 people gathered in central London for the Marxism 2015 festival last weekend. They included striking workers, students, campaigners and socialists from across the globe. Up to 900 people attended the opening rally. Amy Leather from the central committee of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) said, “The theme of Marxism is ideas for revolution—we need to make those ideas a reality.” Events in Greece dominated the event (see below). Several meetings discussed struggle and austerity in Britain. At a meeting on class Joseph Choonara argued that people feel more precarious than they are and that the working class can transform society. A debate on why there are...
