It’s called soap. I’ll speel it fer yuh. S O A P.
Soap is a surficant and emulsifier. When combined with hot water it makes H20 more than 100 times wetter.
To this they will add sand and gravel to make a heated slurry, which is then piped under high pressure to scrub the oil off of and out of the fractures in rock, under the ground.
“So Soap, Alex, for $800”...
Huh?
