To produce oil and gas, four key conditions must be met: 1) The presence of organic material, typically from marine microorganisms, which undergoes transformation into hydrocarbons over millions of years. 2) Sufficient heat and pressure to facilitate the maturation of this organic material into oil and gas. 3) A reservoir rock that can store the hydrocarbons, usually porous and permeable formations like sandstone or limestone. 4) A cap rock that traps the hydrocarbons, preventing them from escaping, ensuring they accumulate in the reservoir.

What advantages does natural gas have over a oil?
Natural gas is less expensive to produce than distilling crude oil for heating. Though, many different products are produced by distilling and refining crude oil, especially in plastics, etc.
Natural gas is often found where crude oil is found?
Natural gas is found along with crude oil in underground reservoirs because both are hydrocarbons formed from organic matter that decomposed over millions of years. This is why many oil fields also produce natural gas as a byproduct. Methane, the primary component of natural gas, can be found in conjunction with crude oil deposits.
Why is there no oil an gas in the Canadian shield?
The Canadian Shield is made up of hard, ancient rocks that do not contain oil and gas deposits. These rocks were formed billions of years ago and do not have the necessary conditions for oil and gas to accumulate. As a result, there are limited hydrocarbon resources in the Canadian Shield compared to other regions.
