Skill Development Program in Hydrocarbon

Hydrocarbons occur naturally. They originate from plant and animal fossils that were formed by the forces of temperature and weight over millennia. They are mostly found deep underground, in porous rock formations, such as sandstone, limestone, and shale. Porous rock formations are often found in large bodies of water, so there is an immense quantity of hydrocarbons trapped deep beneath the oceans. The term hydrocarbon refers to an organic chemical compound that is composed exclusively of hydrogen and carbon atoms. Hydrocarbons are naturally-occurring and form the basis of crude oil, natural gas, coal, and other important energy sources. They are highly combustible and produce carbon dioxide, water, and heat when they are burned. As such, hydrocarbons are highly effective as a source of fuel. Hydrocarbons are chemical compounds that are utilized as the basis of the vast majority of global energy production. A variety of complex technologies and techniques have been developed for extracting hydrocarbons from deep within the earth. Some of the world's largest companies are hydrocarbon companies, primarily oil and gas companies. The use of hydrocarbons as an energy source has negatively impacted the world's climate in a significant way, resulting in climate change.
