[@crowlsyong]

@@Jay-ho6gw Here's a breakdown: *Overview* Oil from oceanic sources often forms in offshore sedimentary basins where ancient marine organisms have settled, generating oil that is typically lighter and of higher quality due to the type of organic material and sedimentary conditions. In contrast, land-based oil can originate from a wider variety of environments including swamps, lakes, and shallow terrestrial seas, where both marine and terrestrial organic matter contribute to the oil's characteristics, often resulting in heavier crudes. Offshore drilling to extract oceanic oil involves complex technologies to manage the challenging deep-water conditions, significantly increasing extraction costs and risks compared to land-based operations. Meanwhile, onshore oil extraction benefits from more accessible sites and a broader range of extraction methods, including traditional drilling and newer techniques like fracking, making it generally less costly and technologically demanding. *Source Material:* Oil forms from organic matter, which includes not only marine organisms like plankton and algae but also terrestrial plants and even some types of microscopic bacteria found in various environments. When these organisms die, they accumulate in environments with low oxygen, which helps preserve the organic material from immediate decay. *Depositional Environments:* These can be marine environments-like shallow seas where most traditional oil deposits form-but also include lakes, swamps, and river deltas where there's significant accumulation of organic-rich sediments. *Transformation Process:* Over millions of years, the buried organic matter is transformed into oil and natural gas through a process called diagenesis, which occurs under conditions of high pressure and moderate temperature, followed by catagenesis, where higher temperatures and pressures convert these materials into hydrocarbons.Ove

Perdido is a relatively small platform. When compared to Thunderhorse or Atlantis or Olympus, Perdido is tiny, maybe 1/5 the size. Although, Perdido is deep, 8k ft. But not much deeper than Atlantis, 7,000 ft. The large rigs are much more interesting because there's so much more going on and involved with the topsides and hulls. I was the construction proj engineer for Atlantis (i was friends with the construction PM for Perdido) and it's so strange how you just get used to working on jobs like these. Visitors to the fab yard show up and jaws on floor. I miss it, but the work is a nightmare because Shell, BP, Chevron, etc don't care about construction cost compared to the level of production you'll get. Atlantis was producing 300,000 barrels/day and paid for itself so quickly. So BP accelerated our schedule to inhuman levels but didn't care what our mgmt proposed cost-wise to do it. We just got stuck working 7 days/week.... all of these jobs eventually do this. The production is just so insane compared to what it costs to build them.

Deep sea archaeologists can analyze core samples from artifacts using techniques like spectroscopy and radiocarbon dating. This analysis can provide insights into the artifact's composition, age, and preservation needs. Core samples are long, narrow pieces of rock that are obtained by drilling into a rock with a special tool. Full diameter core samples can range from 1.50 to 6 inches in diameter and anywhere between 15 to 400 feet in length. Geochemists can also extract fluid from the core and conduct chemical analyses. They look for elements and trace minerals in the samples that tell us where the fluid came from and what conditions are like under the seafloor.

Marine geology, or geological oceanography, is the study of the ocean floor's structure and history. It involves geophysical, geochemical, sedimentological, and paleontological investigations of the ocean floor and coastal zone. Marine biologists study marine organisms, their behaviors, and interactions with the environment. They study biological oceanography and the associated fields of chemical, physical, and geological oceanography to understand marine organisms. Deep-sea biologists may have a variety of responsibilities, including: Examining and exploring deep-ocean habitats, animals, and microorganisms Studying the physiological adaptations of organisms in the deep-sea environment Examining the diversity and activity of microbial life in the deep sea Providing specimens for study on the taxonomy, evolution, and ecology of benthic invertebrates Most positions require at least a Master's degree to become a deep-sea researcher. If you are interested in becoming a Professor of Marine Biology or writing grants to take the lead in research, you will need a PhD.
