What Is Fracking?

cracking is very easy to explain if I put a straw in the earth stabbing through a layer of cake the problem is is you have oil in that that formation potentially that can come to it imagine if we had like a uh a rubber bag or a plastic bag and I stuck a shot vacos in it and I stck a piece of plywood on top and we just stood on that Plywood And that bag was there if I filled that bag up with water what would happen to the plywood I'd lift up right what happens if I took the water off i' sit back down what happens if I pumped water and sand into it I fill up what happens if I took water off of it I'd sit down it would prop it up that's essentially what fracking is we inject water and sand at a high rate into the Earth and it breaks open it fractures the Earth and then we pack it full of sand so the oil and the hydrocarbons can come to the wellbore more freely because it travels through the sand it creates better flow ability so we can deplete a larger area
