http://www.eas.asu.edu/~holbert/eee463/FOSSIL.HTML

Extractions: There are three classes of fossil fuels: coal oil natural gas The general chemical formula for the hydrocarbon compounds is H x (H C) y although they are many times composed with nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur derivatives. Some important hydrocarbons are methane (CH ), ethane (C H ), propane (C H ), and butane (C H ). Burning of sulfur creates SO which reacts with atmospheric water vapor to form acid rain. natural gas consists mostly of ethane and ethane; whereas liquified petroleum gas (LPG) is primarily composed of propane and butane. Coal is the most abundant fossil fuel in the U.S. Coal found in the eastern U.S. typically has high-sulfur and is found in deep deposits (underground shaft mined); conversely, western coal is of low-sulfur content found at the surface (strip or open-pit mined). One of the important properties of a fuel is its heating value (the negative of the heat of combustion). In most instances, the higher heating value (HHV) of the fuel is quoted. However, the lower heating value (LHV) may be a more appropriate quantity since the heat to vaporize any moisture in the fuel is accounted for (i.e., LHV=HHV - h fg water In any discussion of fossil fuels it is necessary to examine the combustion process. There are three important exothermic chemical reactions:

Extractions: SEARCH Editors Home AboutUs ... Global Warming Discussion Recent Discussion Create New Topic Login Logout ... Join to Discuss Active Agriculture Timothy Wilken, MD The electrical power crisis in California during the summer of 2001 drew national and world attention to a shortage of crude oil and natural gas. The exposure of the ENRON corporation's fraudulent manipulation of the energy market has lead some to believe there is no real problem. I wish this were true. Fossil fuels are currently the primary source of the cheap energy that powers our modern Industrial Civilization. If we are running out of crude oil and natural gas, as some of the best scientists and engineers in the energy field are telling us, we have big problems. Think back for a moment to the year 1801, only two hundred years ago, that was a time when there was no gasoline, no refined oil, no natural gas, and no electrical power derived from oil and gas. As a thought experiment, try to imagine what life was like at the beginning of the 19th century. If you were transported back two hundred years, how would the lack of petroleum affect your lifestyle?

Campbell, February, 2002 The oil-drilling rig count over the last 12 years has reached bottom. This is not because of low oil price. The oil companies are not going to keep rigs employed to drill dry holes. They know it but are unable ... to admit it. The great merger mania is nothing more than a scaling down of a dying industry in recognition that 90% of global conventional oil has already been found. Goldman Sachs
Fletcher Prouty Commentary - June
As a nonfossil fuel, petroleum has no living antecedent. Therefore, petroleumis not a fossil fuel with a surface or near surface origin.
http://www.prouty.org/oil.html

Extractions: "Oil is often called a 'fossil' fuel; the idea being that it comes from formerly living organisms. This may have been plausible back when oil wells were drilled into the fossil layers of the earth's crust; but today, great quantities of oil are found in deeper wells that are found below the level of any fossils. How could then oil have come from fossils, or decomposed former living matter, if it exists in rock formations far below layers of fossils - the evidence of formerly living organisms? It must not come from living matter at all!"
Hawaii's Energy Supply

Extractions: Hydroelectric ... Gasoline Data Energy Data Energy Data State Data Book (has a section on transportation) Department of Taxation - fuel tax rates and collections report Energy is generally used in three forms: electricity (such as from the electric utility company, or from batteries); transportation fuels (such as from gasoline stations); and fuel gases (such as from the gas utility company). These forms provide power to homes and businesses; fuel for cars, trucks, and airplanes; and heat for cooking and industrial processes. (For more information on energy use, see Energy Use Hawaii's energy comes from different sources, as shown in the graph below. Petroleum (crude oil) is the basis for about 90% of Hawaii's energy needs. Biomass and municipal solid waste (MSW), coal, and other sources (hydroelectric, geothermal, solar and wind) provide the rest. The fuel mix in Hawaii for electricity generation is different from most of the rest of the United States. Hawaii's dependence on petroleum for about 90% of its energy needs is more than any other state in the nation. And, unlike other states, Hawaii has neither fossil fuel reserves, nor pipelines, nor land connections to other sources of petroleum. All of the petroleum must be shipped in; Hawaii has no local sources.

Extractions: Contributors Fossil fuel energy Millions of years ago, the region around Calgary was covered by an inland sea teeming with marine life. The land to the west featured rivers draining from the ancestral Rocky Mountains and swamps covered by dense vegetation. Burial of land plants creates coal Dead land plants were buried by mud and sand as environments shifted. Through heat and pressure resulting from burial over millions of years, the sediments gradually transformed into sedimentary rock. The plant matter, concentrated at levels that were formerly swamps, became the coal seams of the Canmore and Bankhead areas. They were deformed to mineable thicknesses by faulting and folding. Burial of marine life produces oil and gas When the marine plants and animals died, their remains settled on the seafloor where they were buried by layers of sediment and fossilized. As the soft organic tissue was buried, heat and pressure transformed it into oil and gas: lower heat preserves oil whereas gas can survive to higher temperatures. Migration and entrapment The rocks in which oil and gas form are called source rocks. Due to the pressure of overlying rock layers, oil and gas seldom remain in the source rock. Instead, they migrate with water through the layers of rock until they either escape at the surface or are trapped by an impermeable barrier. There are two main types of traps: stratigraphic and structural.

Extractions: Oil Extraction ... Oil Use About Petroleum and Oil Overview: Petroleum is a mixture of liquid hydrocarbons (chemical compounds containing only hydrogen and carbon) plus various impurities such as sulfur. Unprocessed petroleum is usually called crude oil, although it has been called mineral oil and Seneca oil, named for the Seneca Indians of Western Pennsylvania. The name petroleum is from a combination of Latin words meaning "rock oil". We refer to it here simply as oil. As found in the earth, oil may have a variety of properties. Some forms are black, others dark green, and some light like kerosene. The liquid ranges from very viscous to easy-flowing. Crude oil usually consists of a mixture of hydrocarbons having varying molecular weights and differing from one another in structure and properties. These various species are separated into groups, or fractions, by a process of distillation called refining. Oil fuel, in all of its usable forms, is a refined product, unlike coal and natural gas which can often be burned in their natural condition. Use the underlined links above to go to pages of tutorials and links for the various aspects of oil listed.
