Petroleum is another name for unrefined crude oil. Most paints would have none in the recipe.
Some paints have fairly high percentages of "petroleum distillates". You might expect upwards to 85% for some acrylic enamels used for spray painting. Other oil base paints may have only linseed oil. Latex paints may not have any petroleum based components. Tempra paint is made with egg whites...it depends on the paint.
