Mud is sifted after having gone through a derrick in Noville near Montreux
Mud is sifted after having gone through a derrick in Noville near Montreux May 5, 2010. The Swiss company Petrosvibri is drilling in search of an hydrocarbon deposit under the Lake Leman and estimates its chance of discovery to 20 percent to find natural gas, the volume it expects to find would cover the Swiss national consumption for 20 years. If nothing is found the site could be used to store CO2, an agreement has been signed with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne to conduct further research.

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate process of sifting mud after it has been extracted through a derrick in Noville near Montreux. Taken on May 5,2010, this image showcases the efforts of Swiss company Petrosvibri as they drill beneath Lake Leman in search of a hydrocarbon deposit. With an estimated 20 percent chance of success, their goal is to discover natural gas that could meet Switzerland's national consumption for two decades. The photograph highlights the meticulousness involved in this operation, with workers carefully sifting through the muddy residue left behind by the drilling process. The texture and movement within the picture create a sense of dynamism, emphasizing both the physical labor and technical expertise required for such endeavors. Interestingly, if no hydrocarbon deposits are found at this site, plans have already been made to repurpose it for carbon dioxide storage. An agreement has been signed with the prestigious Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne to conduct further research on utilizing this location for CO2 storage. Denis Balibouse's expert photography perfectly encapsulates nature's raw elements: water droplets ripple across wet mud while capturing detailed textures and creative use of light and shadow. This close-up shot reveals no human presence but instead focuses solely on Mother Nature's power and potential resources hidden beneath our feet.
