What is Oil is burned to heat water to create steam to generate electricity?
Conventional Steam is
|
What is Algae, plankton and other marine and lacustrine photosynthesizers die and sink to the bottom of the ocean.
The first step in the creation of oil
|
What is Thermal?
The injection of steam into the formation, and the heat from the steam makes the oil flow more easily, and the increased pressure forces it to the surface.
|
What is 21.56 cents.
The cost per kilowatt hour
|
|
What is Oil is burned under pressure to produce hot exhaust gases which spin a turbine to generate electricity?
Combustion Turbine is
|
What is They are buried in mud under anoxic conditions.
The second step in the creation of oil
|
What is Gas Injection?
The Uses of miscible or immisscible. Miscible gases dissolve CO2, propane, methane or other gasses in the oil to lower its viscosity and increase flow. Immiscible gasses do not mix with the oil but increase pressure in the “gas cap” in a reservoir to drive additional oil to the well bore.

What is 53 years.
The predicted time left of oil on Earth is
|
|
What is Oil is first combusted in a combustion turbine, using the heated exhaust gases to generate electricity. After these exhaust gases are recovered, they heat water in a boiler, creating steam to drive a second turbine.
Combined cycle techno is
|
What is As more sediment is deposited, they are buried deeper.
The third step in the creation of oil
|
What is Chemical?
Flooding that involves mixing dense, water-soluble polymers with water and injecting the mixture into the field. The water pushes the oil out of the formation and into the well bore.
|
What is Oil is a non-renewable source of energy, and when burned it can pollute the air
The environmental cost of Oil is
|
|
What is The geothermal gradient gradually raises the temperature of the buried critters.
The fourth step in the creation of oil

What is the formation of kerogen, oil, and then wet gas.
