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.
The deepest point ever reached by man is 35,858 feet below the surface of the ocean, which happens to be as deep as water gets on earth. To go deeper, you'll have to travel to the bottom of the Challenger Deep, a section of the Mariana Trench under the Pacific Ocean 200 miles southwest of Guam. And you're going to need a shovel. Two expeditions have successfully plumbed the almost-7-mile depths of the Challenger Deep.
