From Marathon Oil –”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 animated video introduces you to the proven techniques used to extract resources from these shale formations in a safe, environmentally responsible manner.”

Great animation of the drilling technology that is responsible for America’s revolutionary, game-changing, shale-based energy bonanza, the “energy equivalent of the Berlin Wall coming down.”
