    what does casing have to do with fracking fluid once it get out of the lower end of the casing and then comes back up and OUT of the casing?

    Oh, the fluid just has to pass through sides of thick steel pipes after the cement.

    I'm sure Boutons is referring to when you drill a well and then the oil shoots out of the ground like a geyser and all the oil men dance around under the rig. Now that corporate non-humans have introduced frac fluid into the mix...well...that's going all over the place too.

    Yes. This is what I was talking about. And with today's technology, it shoots even harder and further. Sometimes, far enough to be absorbed into the atmosphere. Then it comes down with the rain and eventually makes it's way into the above ground water supplies.

    I also hear that oil companies kill baby ducklings to use their feathers in fracking fluids. They're so mean and evil.

    Injection Wells: The Poison Beneath Us



    Over the past several decades, U.S. industries have injected more than 30 trillion gallons of toxic liquid deep into the earth, using broad expanses of the nation's geology as an invisible dumping ground.

    No company would be allowed to pour such dangerous chemicals into the rivers or onto the soil. But until recently, scientists and environmental officials have assumed that deep layers of rock beneath the earth would safely entomb the waste for millennia.

    There are growing signs they were mistaken.

    Records from disparate corners of the United States show that wells drilled to bury this waste deep beneath the ground have repeatedly leaked, sending dangerous chemicals and waste gurgling to the surface or, on occasion, seeping into shallow aquifers that store a significant portion of the nation's drinking water.

    In 2010, contaminants from such a well bubbled up in a west Los Angeles dog park. Within the past three years, similar fountains of oil and gas drilling waste have appeared in Oklahoma and Louisiana. In South Florida, 20 of the nation's most stringently regulated disposal wells failed in the early 1990s, releasing partly treated sewage into aquifers that may one day be needed to supply Miami's drinking water.

    There are more than 680,000 underground waste and injection wells nationwide, more than 150,000 of which shoot industrial fluids thousands of feet below the surface. Scientists and federal regulators acknowledge they do not know how many of the sites are leaking.

    Federal officials and many geologists insist that the risks posed by all this dumping are minimal. Accidents are uncommon, they say, and groundwater reserves — from which most Americans get their drinking water — remain safe and far exceed any plausible threat posed by injecting toxic chemicals into the ground.

    But in interviews, several key experts acknowledged that the idea that injection is safe rests on science that has not kept pace with reality, and on oversight that doesn't always work.

    Injecting into wells and hoping it stays down there is exactly what fracking is.

    Um. No. You still have no idea what the you're talking about. Best stay in your little VRWC thread where you're safe. You're getting -slapped to oblivion in this thread.

    Seriously boo, at this point all you're doing is proving that you really don't know anything about fracking other than that your eco-bot programmers instructed you to be against it.
