Reflection of the petroleum industry on the environment

Abstract

Since the discovery of commercial oil in the late nineteenth century to the present day in the twenty-first century, The importance of oil in the global and regional arena has not ceased to be the main source of energy, This plays a major role in the development of the economies of countries and the achievement of industrial and social renaissance, It is thus the lifeblood of many sectors and manufacturing industries. In order to accelerate the economic development through the exploitation of the largest proportion of the reserves by intensifying the efforts of exploration and extraction without taking into account the environmental problems resulting from these operations, And toxic wastes that have a negative impact on the components of the environment (Water, air, soil, human, etc.), In view of these environmental challenges to the activity of the oil industry, the State, the operators and the supporters of environmental protection have developed a program and plans to reduce the risk of toxic substances contained in these wastes, By providing methods and technologies for the disposal and treatment of waste drilling and extraction (Drilling fluids, drilling waste bins) Including mechanical treatment, heat treatment, physiochemical treatment, Therefore, the two stages of exploration and extraction of oil after a considerable digging and extraction
