About shale oil extraction

Recently I saw some readers discussing a lot about shale oil mining projects, so I couldn't help but write a chapter to say a few words.

Everyone’s main opinions are divided into the following categories:

First, it is believed that the extraction of shale oil is unrealistic.

I didn’t expect that there were oil professionals among the readers, and they even raised very professional questions. I felt quite surprised, haha.

Regarding this point, I think it is a bit serious.
When I write scientific articles and research materials, I mainly want the plot to be a little more realistic and not to be too dramatic.

But this does not mean that my imagination has to be constrained by realistic data.

This is science fiction after all. Please allow me to use my meager imagination to describe the future technology that I can imagine as much as possible.

If it is as you request, the plan I propose must be feasible in reality.

Then why should I write online articles? I should have been a national treasure long ago, right~
In fact, a book contains dozens or hundreds of technologies, and even if one of them is realized with a plan that I randomly blew up, I feel like I can blow it off for the rest of my life...

second,

I think it is better to engage in new energy and electricity than to engage in petroleum.

I actually emphasized this when I wrote it.

Petroleum is not only an energy source, but also the irreplaceable blood of modern industry.
Derivatives include the most common plastics, asphalt, clothing, synthetic rubber, cosmetics, lubricating products, cleaning supplies, cosmetics, etc.

Even daily chewing gum, flavors and pigments contain traces of petroleum.

These things can be seen everywhere in our daily life.

Even if controllable nuclear fusion is developed, certain functions of oil still cannot be replaced.

At least it cannot be replaced for the time being.

third,

I think that even if the protagonist lowers the oil price, the oil price will still...

It doesn't seem to be of any benefit to anyone.

All I can say about this is that if you don’t dare to think about it after reading a cool article, then you are a little brave!

To be honest, I really can’t believe that when the international oil price is already 30 US dollars, they still have the nerve to sell it for 8 or 9 yuan a liter!
If it's really that extreme, I'll just smash the car and ride a bicycle from now on!
Three buns per hundred kilometers!
Hey,
Although an old author kept telling me that there are some things that don’t need to be explained so much,

It's hard to agree with everyone, no matter what kind of plot is written, some people will be dissatisfied.
No matter how you explain it, the reader’s mind will not change;
What should be sprayed will still be sprayed.

Some time ago, I thought I had enlightened,
I have taken the doubts very lightly.
But today, I suddenly couldn't help it and wanted to explain it in a nagging way.
Then I felt comfortable after saying that, and then I started typing~
