The oil and gas industry and trade groups are quick to point out that chemicals typically make up just 0.5 and 2.0% of the total volume of the fracturing fluid. When millions of gallons of water are being used, however, the amount of chemicals per fracking operation is very large.
How deep can an ocean get? Real Deep ;) Actually, it can get to 35,838 feet. That's how deep Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench off the Marianas Island in the Pacific Ocean gets. The U.S. Navy su â¦ bmersible Trieste reached it in 1960. That's about a mile deeper than Mount Everest is high. And that's real deep.
That means, while they were parked on the bottom in the bathyscaphe, there were almost seven miles/11km of water over their heads! If you cut Mount Everest off at sea level and put it on the ocean bottom in the Challenger Deep, there would still be over a mile of water over the top of it! Hydrostatic Pressure.
