Last Thursday, we hosted Energy Day at a Midland, Texas school. Here are a few highlights.
Students learned about energy density and the history of energy use.
Oil and gas professionals told them how they reclaim land after the life cycle of a well is complete as part of conservation and then the students looked at ways they can conserve in their lives.
Petroleum engineers explained the process of drilling and then they used candy Nerds and jelly beans to create a model of rock porosity.
Students used clues to locate energy sources across the United States, including the amazing and wide range of energy resources in Texas.
Energy Day gives students an opportunity to learn all about how the oil and gas industry fuels life in Texas and around the world. Find out how to bring Energy Day to a school in your community here.
