Animation of Hydraulic Fracturing (fracking) Safe, cost-effective refinements in hydraulic fracturing (also known as fracking), horizontal drilling and other innovations now allow for the production of oil and natural gas from tight shale formations that previously were inaccessible. This video introduces the proven techniques used to extract resources from shale formations in a safe, environmentally responsible manner. Published on Apr 26, 2012 |

Hydraulic Fracturing - Shale Natural Gas Extraction This is an educational video describing the unique process of Hydraulic Fracturing used by the oil and gas industry today. Hydraulic Fracturing is a method used to extract natural gas trapped inside shale deposits stored deep underground using controlled explosives and high pressured liquid to create fractures allowing for the flow of natural gas to be pumped to the surface and processed.

Oil and Gas Drilling: From Planning to Production Excerpt of a 2-hour documentary is the most-comprehensive video available about oil and gas drilling. It follows the complete drilling of a horizontal shale gas well through planning, site preparation, rig mobilization, drilling, stimulation, completion, well connection, production facilities, and gas transportation and processing. Side tutorials are presented on all the major drilling topics including the rig structure, rig equipment, the drilling process, drilling fluids, casing and cementing, well control, drill bits, drill pipe, drilling tools, fishing, directional drilling and well evaluation techniques. The video is presented in high definition and includes extensive graphical representations of down-hole activity. The rig used in the video is one of the most advanced land rigs in the industry.

The Truth About Gasland The Film "Gasland," whatever the intentions of the filmmaker, has contributed to a dialogue based more on fear than facts. While it is a dramatic movie, 'Gasland' is a deeply flawed documentary that gets several important facts wrong. Uploaded on Jan 31, 2011 |

Barry Stevens - 2nd Annual Tunisia Oil and Gas Summit Regrettably, last minute events prevent me from attending the summit. For this I would like to offer to each and every one of you my sincere apologies. Please accept my deepest regrets in not being able to present my speeches and most of all not having the opportunity to meet with each of you. I heard so many great things from family and friends who have visited your country that I could not wait to step foot on your soil, shake your hand and share your food. Published on Sept 22, 2012 |
