petroleum can be made into lip balm if you mix it in with food coloring and artificial flavors
Not really sure what you are asking, but artificial turf is made of plastic. Plastic is made from petroleum (a natural resource).
Manure IS a fertilizer ! I think you may mean to say artificial fertilizer - which has energy costs as well as requiring the use of resources such as petroleum.
A mining engineer should take additional courses in petroleum engineering to work effectively on petroleum related activities. Some companies may have both mining and petroleum projects, and this may offer an opportunity to transition between the two fields. Also, there may be opportunities in oil shale and coal bed methane which will blend better the skills that the mining engineer has acquired. May I also suggest that the mining engineer join the Society of Petroleum Engineers, and consider purchase of their handbook. See: www.spe.org

i think it's no. but they are made from a refined version of petroleum, a natural resource. -------------------- Clothing made of cotton is natural, clothing made from synthetic fibres are artificial.
Several waxes are produced by animals and plants, as beeswax and other; but many types of waxes (this is a large class of organic chemicals called waxes) are extracted from petroleum - but petroleum is also a natural product ! Also true artificial waxes exist, obtained from polyethylene.
Coal and petroleum should be used carefully due to their significant environmental impacts. Both fossil fuels emit greenhouse gases when burned, contributing to climate change. Additionally, coal mining and petroleum extraction can have adverse effects on local ecosystems and communities. It is essential to transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy sources to mitigate these negative impacts and reduce our dependence on coal and petroleum.
petroleum refining is petroleum refining

Something that contains no petroleum is petroleum-free.
