    Of the over 10,500 miles (16,900 km) in the New York State snowmobile trail system, about 8,000 miles (13,000 km) are corridor trails. [2] Corridor trails are high-volume primary routes that provide access to high-use areas and large concentrations of snowmobiles. [ 4 ]

  4. Water injection (oil production) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_injection_(oil...

    Water injection wells may be located on- and offshore, to increase oil recovery from an existing reservoir. Normally only 30% of the oil in a reservoir can be extracted, but water injection increases the recovery (known as the recovery factor) and maintains the production rate of a reservoir over a longer period.

    Hydraulic fracturing [a] is a well stimulation technique involving the fracturing of formations in bedrock by a pressurized liquid. The process involves the high-pressure injection of "fracking fluid" (primarily water, containing sand or other proppants suspended with the aid of thickening agents) into a wellbore to create cracks in the deep rock formations through which natural gas, petroleum ...

  9. Carbon dioxide flooding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_flooding

    When the amount of recoverable oil in an oil reservoir is depleted through primary and secondary production, around 60 to 70% of oil that was originally in the reservoir may still remain. [1] In some cases, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) flooding may be an ideal tertiary recovery method to recover more of the recoverable oil than could be produced ...
