vegetable oil, mostly.
It is spread in the water by an aircraft in the space where the oil spilled.
They are used for measuring the depth of ullage space in an oil tank.

An oil space heater can be purchased from Homebase. ScrewFix also sell oil space heaters. Oil space heaters can also be purchased on eBay and Amazon. Prices start at Í—‘_Í_‘£44.99.
Oil tankers are purpose-built ships used to move large amounts of (crude) oil over the World. Basically huge boat-shaped oil tanks with an Engine room and some crew space at the back.
Sometimes. Oil-filled space heaters, which are fire-safe are preferable. Regular electrical space heaters can be used if they are placed in safe places, and turned off before leaving work.
outer space
Yes, oil occupies space due to its physical properties as a liquid. When contained in a container or reservoir, oil takes up a specific volume based on its quantity and density.
Cedar wood is used with oil immersion objectives in microscopy because it has a refractive index similar to that of the oil (usually 1.515) used to fill the space between the objective lens and the specimen. This minimizes light scattering and improves image quality by increasing numerical aperture and resolving power.
They don't say specifically, but my guess is that they use a mineral oil is because it is cheap and non-toxic. There are also many synthetic diathermic heat transfer fluids that have better performance, but these are more expensive. Glycols are also used in some moderate temperature applications such as radiant heating systems in floors and walls, but I doubt they are used in something as hot as a space heater (the total power dissipated by a space heater may be less than a house radiant heating system, but the peak temperature of a space heater's internal electric heating wire is higher).
I dont think there are any. Magnetometers are used to find oil, and to track and distance and length of magneti cfields, but no daily uses unless you are in a space ship every day!
