Gross Domestic Product (GDP) influences oil prices primarily through its correlation with economic activity and demand for energy. When GDP grows, it typically indicates increased industrial production and consumer spending, leading to higher demand for oil. Conversely, a decline in GDP often signals reduced economic activity, which can lower oil demand and subsequently drive prices down. Additionally, expectations of future GDP growth can also impact oil prices, as traders anticipate changes in demand.
The price level directly affects nominal GDP because nominal GDP measures a country's economic output using current prices, without adjusting for inflation. When the price level rises, nominal GDP increases simply due to higher prices, even if the actual quantity of goods and services produced remains unchanged. Conversely, if the price level falls, nominal GDP may decrease even if production levels stay the same. Thus, changes in the price level can distort the true growth of an economy as reflected in nominal GDP figures.
The same way you measure CPI, but you only take into consideration domestic goods. So if the prices of Sony, Siemens (any product produced outside USA)etc notebooks rises up 20% in USA this year, but only because the import price was higher, it will not affect GDP price index but will affect the CPI

by eliminating the effects of price increases on GDP growth
If (nominal) GDP and real GDP are equal then average price levels are constant.
Yes it does affect the oil price
25% of Norways GDP are from oil.

Well we know that oil prices are a major cost for firms and consumers. When oil prices increase consumption and investment will fall, leading to a fall productivity and in aggregate demand, which we all know is equivalent to GDP.... right?

it increases it (gdp)
Both fiscal and monetary policy can affect real GDP, due to time-lag in wage and price adjustments. In general, however, fiscal policy has a much more direct effect on real GDP.
oil makes up approximately 2.6 percent of the US GDP. The Us has a GDP of 13,926.7 billion dollars, and oil the oil market in the US is worth about 366.2 billion.
Real GDP is adjusted for changes in the price level.
