Do the chemicals used have no way to get to the water?

no. water zones are typically near 1000 to 5000'

petroleum payzones are anywhere near 10-20k feet.


Do they teleport to those depths as to avoid penetrating the water zones? Also, this thread is about waste disposal.

Actually all surface holes have to be drilled with water base drilling fluids. Meaning the only thing outside of steel in the hole at that time is water and barite (your common clay) as a weighing agent. So nothing in that system is detrimental to the aquifers.
