Ken Bone Comeback posted:Yeah, nuc guages of various types are used to find both density and porosity. It's one of the standard measurements on a well log. I agree that (safely used) it's not much of a contamination source -- similar tech is used all the time in construction projects and probably where you work Yes, x ray testing is used on high pressure steel gas mains to check the welds and it's not much of a danger other than just setting up a safe zone for them to work.

We use EM probes to check our boreholes but no radioactive sources. We don’t care that much about porosity though since we’re looking at hard rock.

The most useful one in my petroleum geology class projects was always the gamma log, which is roughly analogous to grain size, but I think the equipment detects radioactivity rather than a response to it like a neutron density log

Ken Bone Comeback posted:Fracking is not really the problem. Fracking is just a method for encreasing permeability. Can you explain this in a little bit more detail? I don't know much about the fracking process but this sounds disingenuous, like you're saying banana peels and their disposal are unrelated to the harvest and consumption of bananas. Is there some other economically viable method of wastewater disposal? Sincere question.

I don't know much about the fracking process but this sounds disingenuous, like you're saying banana peels and their disposal are unrelated to the harvest and consumption of bananas. Is there some other economically viable method of wastewater disposal? There isn't an economically (or environmentally) viable way of treating that much waste water. That's the problem. The wastewater wouldn't be disposed of in some body of sandstone hundreds of millions of gallons at a time if we weren't extracting on massive scales from shales where the petroleum exists as an oily gassy water solution. The induced seismicity is a result of doing the brine disposal in places where there are relict networks of faults that are basically being lubed by that brine, lowering the threshold for how much force is needed to move the rock along the fault. You're not wrong in thinking there will always be wastewater. Of course the peels come from the bananas. Any porous rock media that holds petroleum also contains water. My point is that the negative side effects of fracking are typically not necessarily part and parcel of the fracking process itself, but of irresponsible choices in where we apply that technique and how widespread it has become. Edit: for example, if we were talking strictly in terms of what's known as a conventional oil play, extracting crude from a high porosity high permeability sandstone reservoir capped by an impermeable shale or salt or whatever, we might consider fracking a highly environmentally friendly thing to do. In a case like that, it could dramatically increase the productivity of an existing wellsite in situ, thereby limiting the damage done to an environment by oil exploration or production or what have you US Berder Patrol fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Jan 22, 2020 |

If Popehat has taught me anything the last two years it’s that defamation suits almost never work vs people that can afford to defend them. Good money this one won’t. Asset doesn’t even require Gabbard to be complicit or even aware.

The central government is trying to crack down on false reporting from the field - a guy in my shop is a China analyst and he told me the Chinese newspapers are publicizing communique's from the government saying that if local officials misreport numbers of affected people they would be "permanently nailed to the post of shame."

I'm upset about the damage to Western institutions and stability and such. But at this point the Brits have proven that they aren't going to get off stupid any time soon.
