Typically by burning it (oxidation), to release the chemical energy stored in the carbon-hydrogen bonds of its molecules. The process ranges from simple burning (kerosene lamps and jet engines) to internal combustion, or explosion, of gasoline or diesel fuel (cars and trucks).
The various components of petroleum are separated by fractional distillation: vaporizing the oil and recondensing the components, such as kerosene, naphtha, propane, gasoline, and other fuel oils.
Petroleum energy is energy derived from petroleum products: gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, etc.

Petroleum is called a fossil fuel because it was made from the remains of plants. The energy in petroleum came from the energy in the plants and animals.
Alas No. Petroleum Is Not A Renewable Energy Source. This Is Because The Amount Of Petroleum Can Finish, And It Takes Billions Of Years To Be Made. So Since The Amount Could Finish, It Is Considered As Non-Renewable. I Hope This Helps!
Petroleum energy is energy derived from petroleum products: gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, etc.
All the traffic on our roads relies on petroleum at present, and many many products are made from petroleum, so our whole industrial economy depends on it.
No, it is completely different. Petroleum is a fossil fuel
Petroleum is cheaper.
The energy from the petroleum is only accessable when the fuel is burnt, if the petroleum itself doesn't undergo burning the energy isn't released. So the energy is called 'stored' or 'potential' energy.
It's the kind of energy that is obtained from burning petroleum products.
the petroleum is used as fuel. it is burned, letting out a burst of energy
Petroleum is considered a non-renewable energy because it is a fossil fuel.
plastic is made out of petroleum. The source for today's plastic is petroleum.
