The organisms that later became crude oil primarily lived in ancient marine environments, such as oceans and seas, millions of years ago. When these organisms, mainly microscopic plankton and algae, died, they sank to the ocean floor and were buried under layers of sediment. Over time, heat and pressure transformed these organic materials into hydrocarbons, resulting in the formation of crude oil. This process typically occurs in sedimentary basins where conditions are favorable for preservation and transformation.

What is dead crude?

Crude oil comes from the reservoir as live crude, containing methane and other lower carbon compounds that are liberated as the pressure is reduced (in the reservoir, in the well, in the separator or storage battery) and the crude is allowed to cool. Dead crude is degassed crude meaning no more gas is likely to be liberated. The volumetric measurement of crude is normally done at "standard conditions" of atmospheric pressure and 60 degrees F, although standards vary.
