Natural gas and water may be produced along with the crude oil. For this reason, when the crude oil is produced, it must be processed and the gas and water separated out, so the oil can be sold to refineries.
Crude oil is named because it is a raw, unrefined petroleum product that comes directly out of the ground in liquid form. It is called "crude" because it has not been processed or refined into its various components such as gasoline, diesel, or other petroleum products.
Crude oil is the form of petroleum that bubbles up from the ground. It is a natural fossil fuel consisting of hydrocarbons found in certain rock formations.
Crude oil is extracted from the ground through a process called drilling. A well is drilled into the earth's surface, and if oil is present, it will flow to the surface due to the pressure underground. The oil is then collected and refined to produce various petroleum products.
Crude oil is excavated by drilling wells into underground reservoirs where the oil is trapped. Once a well is drilled, the pressure underground allows the oil to flow up through the well to the surface. The oil is then collected and transported for refining.
Petroleum oil, also known as crude oil, is the type of oil found under the ground. It is formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals that were buried and subjected to heat and pressure over millions of years. Petroleum oil is commonly extracted through drilling wells.
"Petroleum" products are distilled from crude oil, so what comes out of the ground is crude oil.
false
it comes from fossil fuels under the ground that are millions of years old=) =D
No car runs on crude oil. This is the oil that comes out of the ground. It must be refined into gasoline or diesel, at the refinery before it can be sold.
Oil that comes out of the ground is not synthetic but is called crude oil. Synthetic oil is man made with synthetic compounds. They are both oil.
Crude oil
Crude oil but there are several different grades of crude.
Gasoline is refined from crude oil, and crude oil comes from the earth.
Crude oil
Crude oil. and this comes in different grades.
Gasoline is produced from oil. Oil comes from the earth. Gasoline and oil and many other products are refined from crude oil that comes out of the ground. The crude is heated and the vapours are siphoned off at different heights in a 'cracking tower' and constitute many liquids.
