oil drilling

Oil drilling is the process of extracting oil from beneath the Earth's surface. It begins with geological surveys to identify potential oil reserves. Once a site is selected, a drill rig is deployed to bore into the ground, often several thousand feet deep. As the drilling progresses, various techniques may be used to enhance oil flow. Once the oil is reached, it's pumped to the surface, where it can be processed and refined into fuel and other products. This process must consider environmental impacts, regulations, and safety to minimize risks associated with drilling operations.
