Offshore Drilling

A mechanical process where a wellbore is drilled below the seabed
Real World Example
Imagine trying to find your lost keys buried somewhere deep inside a pile of laundry. Just like you need to dig through layers of clothes to reach your keys, offshore drilling involves penetrating layers of the seabed to access oil or gas reserves hidden deep below. In this analogy, the pile of laundry represents the layers of the earth's crust beneath the ocean, your hand searching for the keys is akin to the drill, and the keys symbolize the valuable resources like oil and gas that are being sought after.
