A commonly used (unfortunately) slang term for "hydraulic fracturing".....

Explanation:

It is a process by which high pressure liquid (predominantly water, with other additives such as thickening agents) is injected into a borehole so as to form cracks in rock that contain trapped oil or natural gas, thereby allowing the oil or gas to be collected.
