It is distilled into different fractions, heavy fuel oil (e.g. for ships), kerosene (planes), diesel (cars), gas/petrol (cars), as an example. Also the heavier fractions from distillations may also be 'cracked' to produce more volatile components. The cracking process is undertaken using catalysis.
What else can I help you with?
Which fossel fuel is thought to run out first?
Crude oil
What can crude oil make?
Crude oil can be refined to make a plethora of petroleum product. Kerosene, gasoline, petroleum jelly (commonly known as Vaseline), lubricating oil, and heavy fuel, and many other products. Crude oil contains many different substances which all separate during the refining process.
Where do you get crude oil from and how do extract crude oil?
Crude oil is oil got from directly extracting process. you can use an oil extracting machine such as screw oil press or hydraulic oil press which are common oil extracting machines used for this.
Why is crude oil and gas preferred to coal?
because crude oil and gas are cleaner to burn
What was Jimmy Carter's response to the nation's oil crisis-?
During the oil crisis in the USA there was shortage of fuel. Jimmy Carter's response was to request that the nation conserve fuel. He put on a sweater and announced on TV that he was turning his thermostat down to 55. He also got Congress to enact the Crude Oil Excess Profits Tax, actually an excess tax on crude oil.
Is crude oil different from fuel?
Yes, crude oil is a raw natural resource extracted from the ground, while fuel refers to refined products derived from crude oil such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Crude oil undergoes a refining process to separate and extract different components which are then used as fuel for various purposes.
What fuel do you get petrol from?
Crude oil
What is fuel oil made from?
It is derived from crude oil.
What is the fraction used for jet fuel out crude oil?
Jet fuel is typically composed of hydrocarbons derived from crude oil. The fraction of crude oil used for jet fuel production is known as kerosene, which is a distillation product in the mid-range of the crude oil distillation process. Because jet fuel is a specialized product, only a small fraction of the total crude oil distillation is used to produce it.
How much jet fuel can be refined from 1000000 barrels of crude oil?
The amount of jet fuel that can be refined from crude oil varies depending on the specific refining process and the characteristics of the crude oil. On average, about 10-15% of crude oil can be converted into jet fuel. Therefore, from 1,000,000 barrels of crude oil, approximately 100,000 to 150,000 barrels of jet fuel could typically be produced.
Why does using biodiesel make your supplies of crude oil last longer?
If you are using bio fuel you are not using fossil fuel. Crude oil is a fossil fuel
Is pentane a fossil fuel?
Pentane is an alkane which has been removed from crude oil by fractional distillation and it's crude oil that's the fossil fuel.
Is crude oil fossil fuel?
Oils wells dig up fossil fuels. The fuel that they bring up is raw, unrefined, and full of gunk. It's known as crude oil. So yes, crude oil is a fossil fuel. Correct me if I'm wrong.
What type of fuel is crude oil?

What fossil fuel is pumped from wells?
Crude Oil.
What is a nonrenewable black fossil fuel?
Crude oil.
Is kerosene a fossil fuel?
It is a by-product of crude oil, therefore yes.
