Tuesday, 5th of March, 2019

On Tuesday, 5th of March, 2019, we went to Esso refinery. We met all together outside of the refinery in order to establish some health and safety regulations. After getting inside, we went into a meeting with a man that works at Esso, who presented us about the company, how they are drilling the oil, how they are storing the oil, and other historical and economical aspects of the company. After that we had a tour with a bus, outside the company in order to see the process of drilling the oil, how the oil is kept into different tanks, how they are transporting it and how they clean the water in case oil gets into the water.

After the meeting with the worker from Esso and the refinery bus tour, we went together with Øyvind to the beach next to refinery in order to learn about the three main different type of rocks: sedimentary, metamorphic and granite, moreover, we had to find them by ourselves. We learn how the beach was formed and why the landscape in that area was very stoney.

After arriving to the beach, each of us had to search for the stones we found more interesting and try to discover what type of stone from the main three that we learned, is.

here are some rocks that I found them interesting during our trip on 5th of March :).
