Canadian oil granulation technology recently invented by Canadian by scientists, can make oil pipelines worthless. As known, today, “black gold” is transported on an industrial scale through giant pipes passing through many territories states. It is relatively safe, cheap and convenient, especially compared to the use of railway tanks and oil barges.
However, now the transportation of valuable fossil fuels can be done by any means available and it will as easy and safe as transporting coal. Of course However, it will happen only if the Canadian method specialists in turning liquid petroleum into solid granules will start to be used everywhere. Experts are already negotiating with by the Canadian authorities regarding the implementation of this idea.

The technology of miraculous transformation is kept secret by its authors. It is only known that significant pressure must be used and high temperatures. The final product, according to scientists, is somewhat reminds candies with a stuffing – outside each granule consists of a solid, asphalt-like shell, and inside it is a liquid core. Such granules are relatively cheap and fast. obtained from heavy oil and bitumen.

Oil granules have a number of advantages over liquid granules. by petroleum. Firstly, they do not pollute water. Even if such the substance will be in the ocean, it will not sink and will not pollute sea. Secondly, oil granules themselves practically do not collapse. And thirdly, you can transport such oil by train, by trucks, aircraft and ships. In a word, any specialized and non-specialized transport means.

Canadians say granules can be poured into your pocket, and they don’t even stain your clothes. This, as mentioned above, will avoid various environmental disasters. It’s obvious that such disasters are especially dangerous at sea. Being lighter than water spilled liquid oil spreads across the ocean with a thin film on colossal areas. Spills in the oceans of “liquid gold” accompanied by mass death of fish, marine mammals, reptiles, birds, and other living things. However scattered on water granules can be collected without much difficulty, and they are almost not harm the environment. Moreover, and losses in this case will be minimal …
Of course, the transportation of oil in granules will still require significant energy costs. However, Canadians have already calculated that this will be cheaper than pumping oil through an oil pipeline. Settings for granulation of petroleum can be built right next to wells. Theoretically, they can also be made mobile, which will radically change the logistics of the industry. This technology will become especially indispensable in the Arctic, where today they are already mining with might and main liquid black gold.
