Extracting the Oil
We are expanding our vocabulary to cover the industrial world of fossil fuels. We begin at the source: sonda (the well), which taps into zăcământul (the deposit) to reach petrolul (the oil).
| The well extracts the oil from this deep deposit. | Sonda extrage petrolul din acest zăcământ adânc. |
When discussing the raw, unrefined product, use țițeiul (the crude oil).
| The extraction depends on the quality that the crude oil has. | Extracția depinde de calitatea pe care o are țițeiul. |
Transport and Refining
Once extracția (the extraction) is complete, the crude oil travels through conducta (the pipeline) to rafinăria (the refinery).
| They were sending the crude oil through the pipeline towards the new refinery. | Ei trimiteau țițeiul prin conductă spre rafinăria nouă. |
At the refinery, the main action is a prelucra (to process).
| The refinery started to process the fuel immediately. | Rafinăria a început să prelucreze combustibilul imediat. |
Gas and Drilling
Alongside oil, the industry relies on gazul (the gas) and the physical act of drilling, a fora.
| During the extraction, they continued to drill. | În timpul extracției, ei au continuat să foreze. |
| The woman no longer processes the gas that flows through the pipeline. | Femeia nu mai prelucrează gazul care curge prin conductă. |
Combining Resources
Apply familiar conjunctions like atât... cât și... (both... and...) and nici..., nici... (neither... nor...) to group these industrial materials.
| Both the crude oil and the gas arrive at the refinery. | Atât țițeiul, cât și gazul ajung la rafinărie. |
| Neither the gas nor the oil is in the pipeline. | Nici gazul, nici petrolul nu sunt în conductă. |
