gas extraction
Gas extraction is the process of removing natural gas from underground reservoirs to provide energy for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. It typically involves drilling wells into gas-rich rock formations. Once the gas is accessed, it is brought to the surface and processed to remove impurities. The extracted gas is then transported through pipelines to homes and businesses. This process can vary in methods, including traditional drilling and techniques like hydraulic fracturing, which involves injecting fluid into the rock to release gas. Responsible extraction balances energy needs with environmental considerations.
