The Oil Drum was published by the Institute for the Study of Energy and Our Future, a Colorado non-profit corporation. [2] The site was a resource for information on many energy and sustainability topics, including peak oil , and related concepts such as oil megaprojects , Hubbert linearization , and the Export Land Model .

Drill line (#12) is thick, stranded metal cable threaded through the two blocks (traveling and crown) to raise and lower the drill string. Drill pipe (#16) is a joint of hollow tubing used to connect the surface equipment to the bottom hole assembly (BHA) and acts as a conduit for the drilling fluid.
Petroleum is a non-renewable energy source (also known as a "fossil fuel"), so the efficacy of extraction and refining is important for its continued use; multiple techniques are used to detect and to extract crude oil, based on the source rock it is found in and the type of oil itself. [1]
The deeper the source, the "drier" the gas (that is, the smaller the proportion of condensates in the gas). Because both oil and natural gas are lighter than water, they tend to rise from their sources until they either seep to the surface or are trapped by a non-permeable stratigraphic trap. They can be extracted from the trap by drilling.
Nuclear energy – energy in the nucleus or core of atoms [1] Nuclear fusion; Nuclear reactor; Nuclear reprocessing; Oil drilling; Oil platform; Oil refinery; Oil shale; Oil well; Osmotic power – or salinity gradient power – is the energy available from the difference in the salt concentration between seawater and river water.
