For this reason, the best oil production companies are constantly looking for new sources of oil, new opportunities to extract oil and new methods to extract oil, as well as being sure to take advantage of all the existing effective methods and tools for oil extraction that they can.

Shale Oil Extraction

DC Resources & Oilfield Services is such a company. We are constantly expanding our reach, our technology, and our extraction efforts when it comes to oil in Louisiana, Florida, Texas, the Rocky Mountains and other oil-rich areas throughout Colorado and beyond. Some of those efforts are in the area of shale oil extraction. How does shale oil extraction differ from crude oil extraction?

First, it’s important to differentiate between shale oil extraction and oil shale extraction, which is another name for kerogen extraction. Kerogen is a substance underneath the ground that is the product of fossilized flora and fauna. When extracted and superheated, it can be converted to crude oil, but sufficiently safe and cost-effective methods of doing this are still being perfected.

Shale oil extraction is another matter. Shale oil is already crude oil, and the name “shale oil” just refers to the manner in which it is extracted and where it is located. We find shale oil trapped between layers of shale rock or other dense substances in the earth, like siltstone or mudstone. Using processes like high-pressure pumps to fracture the shale and horizontal drilling, we are able to release that valuable oil from the shale to add it to our crude oil stock.

Shale oil extraction can be a very profitable and useful segment of an overall oil extraction strategy. We can drill down to reach the shale oil and only invest in extraction when it becomes profitable to do so. In this way, we can make sure we always have access to another reserve of oil when we need it.
