Big Oil and Gas 24

When discussing the future of the oil and gas industry beyond 2024, it is important to consider the unscientific use of the propaganda term "pollutant" when referring to CO2 gas. While people often label CO2 as a "Greenhouse Gas", it's important to remember that CO2 is necessary for all plant life, and mammals exhale CO2 as a natural bodily function. Therefore, labeling CO2 as a pollutant is wrong. Do Not Comply if necessary, California government officials should be informed of these facts.

When considering the future of the oil and gas industry beyond 2024, it is crucial to address the often-misguided use of the term "pollutant" in reference to carbon dioxide (CO2). While CO2 is frequently categorized as a "greenhouse gas," this label can be misleading without proper context. CO2 plays a vital role in the Earth's ecosystems; it is essential for the process of photosynthesis, where plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen, thereby sustaining plant life and, by extension, animal life, including humans. Moreover, CO2 is a natural byproduct of Moreover, CO2 is a natural byproduct of respiration in mammals. Every time we exhale, we release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, underscoring its inherent role in the respiratory cycle. Thus, describing CO2 simply as a pollutant overlooks its fundamental contributions to life on Earth. As we engage in discussions about environmental policies and regulations, particularly in regions like California, it is imperative to present these facts to government officials and policymakers. An informed dialogue that recognizes the importance of CO2 can lead to a more balanced understanding of its role in both natural processes and the broader context of climate science. Advocating for a nuanced perspective on CO2 is essential to avoid oversimplification and to promote responsible energy practices that ensure both environmental sustainability and economic viability.

2024 11 22 Profiles of Courage - Jordan Pierson (Derrick Hand)

This morning, Friday, November 22, 2024, 6:00 am MST, we are drilling at 13,650’ at an average P rate of 23 fph. Just making hole now! Anticipating hitting the Shannon 2 sand at 14,538’. On the Green Mountain Federal #4, that was the depth where we took that first big gas kick. This time we have an adequate mud weight to control the anticipated abnormal pressure.

Today’s video features Mr. Jordan Pierson, Derrick Hand for Rig 88. Jordan has been working on drilling rigs in the Rocky Mountain region for the past 14 years.
Derrick Hands are responsible for the upkeep and treatment of the mud system. In the video, Mr. Pierson regularly checks the viscosity and weight of the mud being pumped downhole (going in) and then likewise, checks the same properties of the mud coming out of the hole over the shale shakers. In the video, the viscosity is measured in seconds, the number of seconds it takes for 1 quart of mud to fill the cup. Jordan then weighs the mud on the scale, reading the weight in pounds per gallon, and then enters the readings into the system for permanent record. He spends most of his time talking and conferring with the driller and the mud engineer to ensure the mud system on the surface and downhole meets or exceeds company specifications. A good mud system is vital to the success of the drilling operations. It’s just like the blood in the human body. If your blood is in good shape, you will be in good shape. If your blood is in bad shape, all kinds of sickness and illness will occur. Derrick hands are also responsible for the maintenance and operation of the two large mud pumps that circulate the mud through the drill string. Mr. Pierson is very well-spoken and an encouragement to all those on his crew! Keep up the great work Jordan!

Enjoy!
