Petrol, or gasoline, was first refined from crude oil in the mid-19th century. The process of distilling crude oil to produce gasoline began in the United States, with significant contributions from inventors like Abraham Gesner in Canada and later advancements by figures such as John D. Rockefeller in the U.S. The first commercial refinery was established in 1860 in Pithole, Pennsylvania, marking a key point in the development of petrol as a fuel source.
