Gulf oil drilling?

Question

I've been paying atention to the drilling going on in the Gulf of Mexio
from the bacics that I do know theys deps of drilling have never been done befor even throught the plate is not near any rim of fire magma is down their someweir this is what the crust is sitting on I know that for the furst time in drilling history the engenears are drilling long past weir they ever tryed befor could this have trigered the Sept quake in Florida or could it creat a forkline of it's own

Answer 1

Simply...no. The diameter of a drill bit at 20000 feet is about 5 inches across; kind of like sticking a pin in a pin cusion...you are not really effecting anything. However, if you encouter a large gas filled sand near the sea floor; the gas could rapidly expand and exit the bore-hole potentially causing a underwater mudslide or earthquake. Fortunately these shallow gas hazards can be seen and avoided before drilling. Alternatively, if you produce gas or oil from a shallow reservoir for an extended time; the land above it may subside or collapse due to the lack of pressure at depth. The ground may slowly sink; this has been observed; but not in Florida.

Answer 2

Probably not. The recent Florida quake was not the first of its kind. There has been seismic activity there for decades, and it has been accelerating for decades.

Answer 3

Um, I would answer your question if I could understand it. Try using periods, they help.

Answer 4

Good God, I hope and pray English is your second language. Please get someone to translate this, okay.
