Yes it is
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.
Petroleum jelly contains a high amount of liquified oil and pig sperm
Petroleum jelly is produced by the refinement of crude oil into petroleum, followed by further purification processes. It involves removing impurities and adding stabilizers to create a semi-solid gel-like substance.
Petroleum is refined from crude oil and is but one fraction only
crude oil is a petroleum
No, contrary to popular belief, petroleum jelly is in fact a jelly.
Crude oil is the raw, unrefined form of oil extracted from the ground, while petroleum oil refers to the refined products obtained from processing crude oil, such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Petroleum oil is the end product that is used for various purposes, whereas crude oil is the starting material before refining.
Most candles are made of paraffin wax. Paraffin wax is made from petroleum in the oil refining process. It is naturally clear and odorless when burned, though most candles include dyes and fragrances.
Petroleum is a word derived from Latin: Petra - rock, oleum - oil. Thus, in direct translation petroleum means oil from rock and is commonly regarded as a very close synonym of Crude Oil. However, according to Britannica Encyclopedia, petroleum as a technical term encompasses: the liquid (crude oil), gaseous (natural gas), and viscous or solid forms (bitumen and asphalt).
Petroleum jelly, petrolatum, white petrolatum, soft paraffin or multi-hydrocarbon, is a semi-solidmixture of hydrocarbons originally promoted as a topical ointment for its healing properties.Petroleum jelly was first noticed by oil well drillers . . . it came out of the crude oil and would build up on the adjacent equipment.At some point an oil driller tried rubbing some on a bad abrasion or burn, and found that the wound healed much faster than before.
It is a by-product of crude oil, therefore yes.
"Petroleum" products are distilled from crude oil, so what comes out of the ground is crude oil.
