This resource from BP Educational Service for students aged 14-16 explores science concepts through the real world science context of oil and gas extraction. The materials include a practical challenge and activities.

This resource is presented in three parts:

• A six-page information booklet about oil and gas extraction, which includes questions to explore students' knowledge and understanding

• Teachers' notes including answers to the booklet questions

• A series of PowerPoint slides that describe practical activities to help students understand some of the science behind extraction of oil and gas (the PowerPoint includes teachers' notes)

HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment. Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date. Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work. Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
